Larry Fischer is one of the top domain investors of all time. Larry has been in the space for decades, and he has acquired, sold, and advised on hundreds of millions worth of domain name deals. His company, GetYourDomain, represents a portfolio of the highest value domain names.

I had the chance to briefly meet Larry’s son, Jeff Fischer, at the ICA meeting in Las Vegas last month. After spending several years in a range of finance roles, Jeff transitioned into the domain name industry and has been working alongside Larry.

I’ve been fortunate to acquire some good domain names at very good prices because I had significant knowledge of the topic. The result of buying good names at great prices was helpful when I was able to sell them for market prices.

I didn’t spend time becoming an expert in a niche topic to buy and sell domain names. Most of the time, I became an expert due to life experiences, and that gave me a better understanding of specific domain names that came up for sale or that I targeted in the aftermarket.

Tom McCarthy Shifts from DBS to DomainNames.com

Tom McCarthy has been one of the top domain brokers on the GoDaddy Domain Brokerage Service (DBS) team, with more than $75 million in brokered deals under his belt. I’ve worked with Tom on several sales negotiations, and I know he often represents vetted buyers whose budgets allow them to acquire valuable domain names.

According to a LinkedIn update (posted below), Tom is shifting from the DBS team to GoDaddy’s recently launched DomainNames.com marketplace.

With this shift, Tom will primarily focus on representing sellers through GoDaddy’s DomainNames.com marketplace, while the DBS team continues to handle inbound inquiries for domain names not listed for sale on GoDaddy. In select situations, such as with repeat clients, high-value buyers, or by request, Tom may still lend his expertise on the buyer side, particularly where his historical relationship or negotiation skillset adds value.
