In our area; they are a jack of all trades. lots of oldtimers can't get there auction ready, so the ringmen are put in charge. around here, most are well paid and
know the business from the inside out. An auctioneer who doesn't pay his ringmen well aren't usually in the auction business long. back breaking work in the hot and
cold!

Auctioneere and cleark are usually part of crew getting sale ready. Owner getting things ready will a lot of times not do it correctly and turn buyers off so they leave. But some auctioneres do not set things up correctly like with a 2 day sale going down the line and yoy see what you want and they bypass it and you ask about it and they say that is for tomorrows sale. Well you do not go back for tomorrows sale. Then you ask for load out early (middle of afternoon) and they load every body but you untill you are last person there. Friend that is an auctioneere went with me to sale and said the way the auctioner handled the sale was nuts. Will never go to any of his auctions again ever.
