Protravel Auction Rewards appoints Chris Tiney as Director
Protravel Auction Rewards, a service that enables charities and fundraisers to offer big headline travel and leisure prizes at no risk to themselves, has appointed Chris Tiney as Director.
Chris joins from DP Events, a leading organiser of corporate networking events in the hospitality and healthcare industry where he headed up the buyer side of the events. He was responsible for working with leading purchasing managers to guarantee their attendance as well as working behind the scenes in order to ensure that relevant suppliers met with relevant buyers.
At Protravel Auction Rewards Chris will be responsible for all sales and operational activities including product and service development.
Protravel Auction Rewards offers travel and leisure packages that are specifically designed to be auctioned at charity events or in fundraising activity. The reserve price on the auction item is only paid once met and anything over and above that amount is a valuable donation to the organisation hosting the event. This makes it a risk free way for organisers to boost their auction list with ‘money can’t buy’ prizes and create a real buzz and great publicity around the event.
The packages are tailor-made to suit the organiser’s budget, target audience and objectives, and range from dance lessons at the Rio Carnival or hospitality at the Monaco Grand Prix, to a hot air balloon flight or an annual cinema pass. Costs are guaranteed for 12 months from the draw date, giving winners’ flexibility when redeeming and allowing organisers to place a reserve on the award whilst easily managing the budget.
In addition, Protravel Auction Rewards offers ‘Auction Extras’, a host of services designed to enhance the event by involving all the guests attending and allowing organisers to offer amazing prizes at a fraction of the cost. Examples include ‘Prize Me Open’ themed table gifts, which offer guests the chance to win a variety of prizes ranging from diamonds to holidays, and ‘Safe Cracker,’ which gives one lucky guest the chance to win a once in a lifetime prize.
All of the packages include a comprehensive prizewinner management service which includes a dedicated account manager for direct winner liaison, branded correspondence, a personalised itinerary with travel wallet and luggage labels and destination tourist information.
