Minimum Bids and Deeply Discounted Prices Mean NO RISK to Your Organization
Bidding will start at the low prices we offer exclusively to non-profit organizations. That way you are assured of covering your cost of the item at the very first bid! But, you don't want to just cover your costs...you want to raise money! And, there is plenty of opportunity to raise money! Here's why.
The chart below helps to exemplify how our deeply discounted pricing for non-profit organizations leaves plenty of room for fundraising! The first box on the left indicates our balloon ride prices for non-profit organizations. The box in the middle indicates the balloon ride retail prices available through Soaring Adventures of America, Inc. FundraisingRides.org is a division of Soaring Adventures. All of our retail customers purchase rides through Soaring Adventures. The final box on the right indicates the national average pricing for hot air balloon rides.
Our special pricing for non-profit organizations is 40% less than our retail prices. But, Soaring Adventures has a history of pricing rides very competitively. The true market value of the rides should be measured by the national average price. When you take that into account, our special pricing for non-profit organizations is nearly half the true market value. As a result, your bidders will not hesitate to jump in with their bids because they will perceive real value in the item. Most organizations sell a balloon ride for two people and a balloon ride for four people in their auction.
NO UPFRONT COST (or Simply No Cost At All)
You only purchase the balloon rides if they sell in your auction. And you make that purchase after your event. If the balloon rides don't sell in your auction, then you don't purchase anything at all.
Our NO OBLIGATION Policy Let's You Get Everything You Need,
Without Committing To Anything
We think that our balloon rides are a great fit for every auction! but, we aren't in control here...you are!
You may print the Balloon Ride Auction Kit and then decide not to include our rides in your auction. Your auction committee may decide for some reason that our balloon rides aren't a good fit for this event. Or, you may put the rides in your auction and then have nobody bid on them. With our No Obligation Policy, you can feel comfortable with every possible outcome.
