Auctions are universal. There’s a certain something to connecting with an audience, engaging a large group, and driving a bid for an item that just speaks to people all over the world. And while we’ve heard a lot about how Auctions come together in the lone-star state, we haven’t spent a whole lot of time talking about how things work in other parts of the U.S. Just ask Mike Brandly. He’s an independent auctioneer based out of Ohio and he’s been working the chant for nearly 40 years. And on this week’s episode of The Mike McGavel Jones Show, Mike’s sitting down with Mr. Brandly to talk about how they met, why Mike got into the National Auctioneers Association, and how his experience selling everything from cars to construction equipment makes him a brilliant fit for America’s Auction Academy.
