During the last handful of years, I have done less outbound marketing to sell my domain names. I still enjoy doing it on occasion because it is exciting to close a deal that I completely manufactured on my own. When I have been doing outbound, the call to action is now to direct the prospects to the landing page, which is almost always on Dan.com.
In my email, I usually write something along these lines:
Have you excelled at selling domain names but don’t have the bankroll to build your own portfolio? The XYZ Registry is looking to hire a Domain Sales Executive, according to a tweet posted by the company today.
We are hiring! XYZ is looking for a dynamic intrapreneur to join our team to help manage and grow our XYZ premium domain clientele.

Here’s an excerpt about the job scope taken from the job listing:
Late last year, I tried to hand register domain names related to a certain trend. I spent a fair amount of time on keyword tool websites and on GoDaddy’s bulk domain registration page, and I ended up finding one domain name that seemed worth buying for the $10 hand registration cost.
Shortly after the registration was processed, I realized the registration was actually a typographical error. It was a two word domain name, and while the first word was spelled correctly, the second word was not. Luckily, I now suppose, even though the second word was a typo, it actually correctly spelled a different word. I did not think the two words made a great domain name combination, so I turned off auto-renew and figured I’d let it ride for the year.
Update: All spots have been reserved. If you are interested in sponsoring our jersey and there is room for any more logos once the jersey design is finalized, email me and I will keep you posted.
John Berryhill and I are raising money for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute this year by riding nearly 200 miles in the Pan-Mass Challenge. Dana-Farber has an important cancer fighting mission John and I support wholeheartedly. For the last several years, we created a custom domain industry Pan-Mass Challenge jersey with the logos of generous supporters. John and I will be doing the same this year.
John and I will wear this special jersey as we cross the finish line on Day Two of the Pan-Mass Challenge. The plan is to get the jersey created ASAP so John and I can also wear it during our training rides in advance of the PMC. I still wear my older jerseys when I ride outside.
Once again this year, the XYZ Registry is our lead sponsor, making a significant donation to our PMC fundraisers. In addition, the XYZ design and operations teams (Amy Brown Cole and Jocelyn Hanc) designed the jersey and shorts for us to wear.
As you can see, there is still room on the back for quite a few domain industry logos. John and I are asking for a $750 donation to one of our PMC fundraising pages in exchange for your logo on the back. Please reach out to me before making a sponsorship donation so I can confirm availability.
Two domain industry friends – Alan Dunn and Morgan Linton – donated more than the requested amount to have their Bored Apes featured on our sleeves. GoDaddy was also kind enough to donate beyond the $750 requested amount. We have quite a bit of space available on the back of the jersey. Update: All spots have been reserved.
I am grateful for every donation that domain industry friends and colleagues have given towards our fundraising efforts. Dana-Farber is a great organization with an important cancer fighting mission. With your help, John Berryhill and I raised over $100k for Dana-Farber, and every single donation is appreciated. You can donate to John’s PMC fundraiser here and my PMC fundraiser here.
2022 domain industry PMC jersey sponsors:
Here’s the final low-res version of our 2022 PMC jersey:
Radix sent me its 2021 revenue report, in which the company shared that it saw significant growth over the prior year. The company reported a gross revenue total of $38 million in 2021, a 35% increase from 2020.
In comparing 2021 vs 2020, the company’s net profit grew by more than 60%. I asked a company representative what the key drivers of the profit growth were. I was told it was due to a boost in the sales of its premium domain names and stronger renewal rates.
I use ExpiredDomains.net on a daily basis to find domain names to bid on and purchase. There is no cost to use ExpiredDomains.net, so I make a conscious effort to click on their affiliate links. In fact, I noticed and reported a bug at GoDaddy Auctions because I do not receive bid confirmation emails when I bid after clicking their links, unlike when I directly bid on GoDaddy Auctions.
TonyNames on Twitter shared some tips to maximize your usage of ExpiredDomains.net. He started a thread in August of 2021 and continued it with some additional tips this morning. I think his tips are worth highlighting. You can see his original tweet below and click the “Read the full conversation on Twitter” link to see the entire thread:
