While attempting to place some backorders this morning at DropCatch.com, I encountered an error message. Clicking on the login link brought me to an error message preventing me from logging in to my account:
“We’re sorry. An error seems to have occured. Please try again or visit https://www.dropcatch.com to speak with a customer service representative.”
I saw a job posting on LinkedIn that might appeal to someone with domain name industry experience and expertise. Victoria’s Secret is looking to hire a Brand Protection Domain Manager. This position is eligible to be remote with periodic travel requirements. Victoria’s Secret is based in Ohio.
While there are no requirements for domain name experience, this role might be suitable for someone who is familiar with the domain name industry. Here’s an excerpt from the job posting that describes the job opportunity:
This afternoon, I received the NameJet list of its Most Active Pending Delete Backorders. These are expired domain names that are about to be fully deleted and will be fought over by domain name registrars for partner auction platforms. One domain name in particular stood out to me – PureLife.com.
Whois records show that PureLife.com has been registered to Societe des Produits Nestle S.A. The domain name has been registered at Com Laude, a domain registrar specializing in corporate domain name management. The domain name has Nestle.com nameservers, but it doesn’t appear that Nestle used the domain name for much. Archive.org shows that PureLife.com forwarded to Nestle.com.
One of the neat sales tactics offered by Squadhelp is the price increase notification sellers can add to their landing page. Sellers who utilize this tool will show a message on their landing page that informs visitors the price will be increasing. This is a smart tactic from this innovative domain sales platform.
While I have not used Squadhelp, I agree that this can be a smart tactic. In fact, I manually use a similar tactic in my negotiations with prospective buyers. When discussing the price of a domain name, I will say something like this:
In 2018, I received an inquiry to buy a two word .com domain name that came through a form on an Embrace.com inquiry page. The name of the person who inquired sounded familiar to me, and a Google search of the unique spelling of his name showed me why.
This man was a legendary entrepreneur who founded more than a dozen companies. Some of these companies are still well-known brands that people in the US would recognize. From what I can gather, he had several successful exits, and he continued his entrepreneurial work for his entire life.
I occasionally send outbound emails to sell domain names. I combine a variety of Google search results with the lead generation tool at Dropping.pro to create a small and highly targeted list of prospective buyers for each domain name I want to sell via outbound marketing. One thing that doesn’t change much is the content of the email.
Frankly speaking, I am not a data driven results person. I don’t do any testing of my outbound email efforts because I don’t and have never sent enough emails to allow me to get actionable results. I have also felt aligning a particular domain name with the right person at the right company is far more important than the email messaging.
That being said, I am a bit tired of sending a similar email for different domain names. In addition, rewriting my own email will likely produce a very similar sounding email, which sort of defeats the purpose.
This morning, Michael Cyger tweeted about an AI copywriting tool called CopyLime that may be able to help domain investors craft a better email than what they are currently using:
