About BusinessHere

Our vision is to be the market leader in branded, online auction solutions.

BusinessHere is the market leader of branded online auction solutions for high-profile entertainers, entertainment media companies, and non-profit organizations. Our name brand clients are not in the auction business; they are headlining performers, multifaceted entertainment networks, and innovative non-profits with common interests: generating new revenue, raising money for charitable causes, and building goodwill in the communities in which they work and live. We take an active role in our clients’ success by providing turnkey advisory and auction management services to capitalize on new online revenue and community building opportunities.

Entertainment Media

Our entertainment media clients include MTV Networks, of which there are over 100 affiliated cable channels, including MTV, VH1 and CMT. We currently power online auction sites for the primary music channels, plus we have worked with other channels, including SpikeTV, Noggin, The N and VH1 Classic. In addition to working with MTV Networks, we currently operate online auctions for The Grand Ole Opry and WAY-FM, which is a regional network of Christian radio stations with the heaviest concentration in the Southeast.

Performing Artists

BusinessHere provides branded online auction sites, UltimateFAN VIP, and auction management services for artists in the country, pop, rock, and Christian music genres. Clients include John Mayer, Dave Matthews Band, Allman Brothers Band, and Gov’t Mule in the pop/rock genre; country music superstars Keith Urban, Brooks & Dunn, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, Dolly Parton, and Dierks Bentley, and Christian touring giants Steven Curtis Chapman, MercyMe, and Casting Crowns.

In addition to powering auction sites specifically for the artists, we also provide the ability for artists to auction memorabilia, premium concert tickets and once-in-a-lifetime experiences on our network sites such as CMTauctions.com, VH1auctions.com and WAYFMauction.com. These outlets provide the artists with a central, genre-specific audience in which to present their auction items immediately without the need to set-up their own sites. We have operated auctions for Maroon 5, Martina McBride, Keith Urban, Kenny Chesney, Sugarland, Toby Keith, Wynonna, and many other artists on CMT, VH1 and MTV’s auction sites.

Non-Profits

Many non-profit organizations have directly benefited from the sale of merchandise on our auction sites. A number of registered non-profits use our auction sites to sell autographed memorabilia, concert tickets and VIP experiences. Auction sites, such as CMTauctions.com, provide an easy and effective way for non-profits to turn donated merchandise into cash, while reaching highly targeted music fans in the country, rock/pop genres and Christian music genres.

BusinessHere’s Services

BusinessHere provides two distinguishing services: branded online auction sites and turnkey auction management services that provide significant competitive advantages in the marketplace, and both of which will become even more important to the industry.

The core service we provide is branded online auction sites. By branded, we mean that the auction sites mimic the “look and feel” of our clients’ Web sites. By providing a truly custom site that maintains the look and feel of our clients’ sites, we offer a transparent solution for fans that immediately conveys trust and credibility. It also allows for the customization of every aspect of the site, including the URL, e-mail address, and messaging on the home page and in e-mail notifications.

Since none of our clients are in the auction business, we manage every aspect of the auction from start to finish. This comprehensive suite of services includes merchandise warehousing, photography and listing services, customer service, payment processing and fulfillment.

When you couple site customization with the auction management services, our clients are able to easily get into the auction business because they can rely on a trusted partner that can effectively and efficiently manage every aspect of their auction business for them.
