We met a lot of auctioneers at the 62nd International Auctioneers Conference and Show <\/span>last month interested in knowing how becoming trained as a certified machinery and equipment appraiser (CMEA) can help their business. We\u2019ve discussed the benefits<\/a> in the past, and decided to highlight some real world examples of auctions going on this month to show how CMEAs can get involved in the industry.<\/p>\n In Iowa, there\u2019s going to be a farm equipment auction<\/a> going on this weekend. Up for auction are livestock equipment, harvesting equipment, and tractors, among other things. Also going on this month is an auction in Simsbury, Connecticut where equipment and machinery owned by the town is being auctioned. Some of the items up for auction include construction equipment and several vehicles.<\/p>\n Auctioneers involved in auctions like this one can increase their profitability and reduce their liability by securing a CMEA<\/a> designation. And if you\u2019re already a CMEA, getting involved in the auction industry is an exciting way to grow your business.<\/p>\n If you\u2019re an auctioneer interested in adding the CMEA designation to your name, contact us!<\/p>\n
