About John Sisk, CAI, FCAI John Sisk Auctioneers, Inc. |
John Sisk
Auctioneers was established in January of 1981. John attended
Britten Auction
Academy in Bryan, Texas for something fun to do, not
really meaning to get in the auction
business, while recovering from an
accident that had
caused him to spend the previous
13 months in the
hospital.
Encouraged by Walter Britten, the schools
founder, that he really had some natural ability
in the bid-calling aspect
of auctioneering, and with his corporate business knowledge coupled
with
his experience in the construction area, he would do well to consider this
as a profession.
Having been to only one auction (a pure-bred
cattle auction) in his life, prior to auction school,
the idea seem far
fetched. Once again, encouraged to practice and attend the Texas
Auctioneers
Association's Convention by Walter Britten, he attended the
convention that
year and three
months out of auction school was awarded
the Reserve Grand Champion Bid Calling
trophy for 1981.
From that exposure, John began doing contract
work for auctioneers all over the State, which
he still does, and
eventually began
setting up his own sales as well. He believes in
continuing
education and is constantly trying to better himself and his
company.
John is a member in good standing of the
National Auctioneers Association
(NAA),
the
Texas Auctioneers Association (TAA)
(which he has served 3-Terms on the Board of Directors)
holding State License #7425, (AMI) (CAI)
Auction Marketing Institute (from which he has
earned the distinguished "CAI"
designation, the highest designation awarded for
professionalism in the auction industry, and has done all the course work
to attain the
"GPPA"
designation in appraising from the same Institute), (CAGA)
Certified Appraisers
Guild of America, and is a co-founder of (FCAI) The Fellowship of Christian
Auctioneers International.
