Daily Poll: How Was Q1 2018?

As the calendar flipped to April, the books closed on the first quarter of 2018. For me and my businesses, it was a bit of a mixed bag. Because of some outlier deals, the overall numbers are pretty good. I had a slow February in terms of deal volume and March started pretty slow, too.

Last week was by far the busiest of the year for me. I closed a few deals and am still actively negotiating to sell a couple of other domain names to buyers who will use them well. There were no outstanding deals this past week, but it was nice to move some inventory for reasonable prices after a slow few weeks.

All in all, Q1 was good, but it could have been better. How was the first quarter for you?
