On-air e-commerce - bringing a web based auction system to millions of television viewers .

The challenge
CPTV's on-air auctions generate more revenue than any other fundraising activity. Originally, the auction staff used an analog system of whiteboards, markers…and a lot of paper. CPTV needed a way to automate the auction process, and display bidding status to television viewers. The system had to be easy enough for CPTV's staff of volunteers to use, and bulletproof for use during live television broadcasts.

The solution
Create a better television experience for the millions of viewers who watch CPTV’s auctions. We designed and built a complete Web-based bid management and on-air display system that automates the process of hosting the auction, and displays bid status and sponsorship to a live television audience.

The benefits

CPTV’s auction revenues have increased
Fewer volunteers are needed to run the auctions
The new system provides more sponsorship opportunities
Real-time bid status has increased the average bid value
Millions of television viewers have a better experience
