I yaff come again

I noticed sending mails individually drastically improves delivery rate but it takes a lot of time, which I don't have.

I tried sending about 150 mails individually (for a domain) and I spent close to 2 hours or there about. Local man just can't. (Respect to iKhalyfah in this aspect, u r d boss)

The suggestions/solutions I've gotten so far (based on my limitations) are:

Solution 1: Open lots of gmail accounts in order to be able to use the free version of Streak, which has a mail-merge limit of 50 emails per day.

Problem:
Won't it look unprofessional to have plenty of email accounts like abc23,abc24,abc25,abc26, and so on when outbounding? Moreover, I would have to break down each list into smaller batches of 50 to enable me send.


Solution 2: Register for a Pro Gmass account and try to use an old gmail account that would enable me to send close to 500 messages per day.

Problem:
I only have one email old enough that I can spare for outbounding. However, the email doesn't look professional. The current email accounts I use have low sending limits (about 150 messages per day), which isn't enough. And using two or more gmail accounts means paying for more gmass subscription.


Solution 3: Use custom email addresses and get a paid email tracking feature with it.

Problem:
Custom emails and gmail spam folder are 5 & 6. Moreover, Namecheap now have a limit of 50 messages per hour. Abi, what's the essence of sending a lot of emails if most of them would end up in your recipients spam boxes?


Any idea on how to improve email deliverability and reduce the time spent on outreach? Or do I accept fate and be sending my mail one by one

cc: ollybode, priceaction, crudedude, iCauseTrouble, Treasure28, UrVillagePpl, Promxy94.

Boss I have 4 Gmail addresses and I have 4 custom email addresses.
My custom email is forwarded to the 4 Gmail addresses, so technically I'm using 4 gmail to outbound. All these are always at work at regular interval.
What I do is I came up with name like namevaults@gmail.com
Domainselo@gmail.com etc.
The fact is, each individual has their outbounding style- that's my style.

2sexycom:
more input on this please!

Boss I got this style from @rob I have used it once and it open up to negotiation.
It goes thus;

"Names of this caliber routinely sell for over $xxxxx

We also sometimes do domain leases with a purchase option.(provided you want to use instalment Sir)

If you have budget, I will do my best to get something done for you."

You can have it twisted to suit your need

Good day and congratulations for the sale reports....
I want to ask if possible to boycott Dan from the transfer of domain to the buyer.
Dan is yet to send the transfer process to my buyer and he's been sending mails to me.
The domain is registered in 123reg.
I want to ask if possible to ask my buyer to create account with 123reg, then he should send me his username so that I can push the domain to him.
Will that be a good idea?

Bro, if the domain is bought on Dan platform, I will advice you not to do that. There are to ways to it:
****you can tell Dan that your buyer is in dare need of the domain base on the email you received from him, you then suggest to Dan to help ask the buyer to create 123-reg account, and forward the username or email of the newly created account to you for easy push of the domain. By so doing you get Dan involved in the transfer process
***" Secondly u wait till 60days lock is over....
Hope this helps......

Gabson91:

Congratulations to you and the recent sellers

Guys, we may not need to use PayPal if what I am testing works.

It would be a case of just being in Nigeria and send a link from here, get paid through the link and receive the money into our bank.you will also be able to create invoice on the platform.

You know I am always testing...? I tested and created a $1 payment and used my GTB card to run it and it was successful. Now we need to test cards from US, UK, Germany and anywhere else in the world.

I will let you know when I use it for my next domain sale.

Wait for it.

This will be splendid boss, anxiously waiting

Epik Payment updates
I just got paid, after I wrote to Rob again today via mail and namepros, which he replied that my account isn't verified.

I was surprised, because I have never heard of Epik verification,and this wasn't my ist time of selling through his platform.

I followed the link for verification and did the verification, it was acknowledged by his team, and I was paid.

Bro, hope the exchanger don't delay the payment to ur local account.
Sorry for my asking, quidax delay my last payment for 3 days complaining of downtown. And also considering the period that we are currently.

logik29:
Who else rely on estibot appraisal.i just checked a nice city+solar Domain and it's appraisal was less than $100.

If you rely too much on estibot value, u will miss some real gems. Do a quick search of end-users for the domain. Thats what u need most ma.

Macaulish:


You are lucky. GTB was N500,

while UBA charged me N411.54 both 2 days earlier

So no complain

When was that bro, cos as yesterday Gtb charged me ₦386

Adesarm:
No Problem bro. I haven't received my payment yet and the reason is that the buyer just got the name into his own account yesterday(the name was under 60days lock and he wants it in his GD account) hope to receive my fund today but I like wire transfer because it is very fast. Straight to my gtb account.
Thanks

Congrats on your sales. Quick one. How long does it take wiretransfer to reflect in your local account if sent by Epik. That of Dan take 4 to 5 working days.

Crazeworld:
About this custom domain of a thing, do you think it's better than the normal gmail? Because I have a hosting plan with namecheap and I created a domain for outbounding sake for it. I connected the webmail directly to my gmail account so I'm able to receive and send mails directly from my gmail. But I noticed something;

1. The starter pack on namecheap hosting doesn't allow me to send more than 50 mails per hour from each webmail address (I created two webmails on 2 different domains). I send my mails in bulk using streak so this was a little bit stressful as some of my end users are more than 100. I had to divide the contacts to 49 each and scheduled them to send 2 hours in sequence. This solved the 50 mails per hour limit.

2. I don't know why but those mails mostly end in spam. I complained to namecheap support and they said maybe I'm sending spam emails. I had to reconstruct my sales letter myself over and over again but I saw no improvement. I started testing it by sending random mails to friends I know by requesting for their email addresses but most of them land in spam folder. I don't know maybe custom email for outbounding is ineffective or namecheap is just silly.

I lost interest in domaining around December since my efforts were not yielding results. Not even a "No, I'm not interested" from end user o. In February, a guy reported here how he used google analytics population screenshot to do a follow-up up and it led to sale. I went back to my domains and did the same. I attached the screenshot and sent it this time from my normal gmail account. Less than 30 minutes after, I got a $250 offer on the domain I just worked on. I no even counter anything because enugbe. Two days later, I got an offer on another domain.

Landing two sales using my Gmail account made me conclude that custom email thing no too dey effective. I still input my custom email address in the signature tutorial you gave to make it look official though but the mails are sent from my personal Gmail address. I hope to try the snov sending option when the pandemic subsides and see how it goes.

Apologies for the epistle

I have used Gmail to close deal several time, even up till d moment I still use Gmail to outbound and likewise I have used custom domain to close sale.
Using custom domain is a matter of choice. Is not mandatory and it doesn't mean you will not get sales, what is important is domain itself and sending mails to those who have an urgent needs for it.
The expert just advice that it is highly professional to use custom domain.

Boss if you forward your custom domain to gmail, u don't need to use webmail at all. U will be able to send and receive mail from the Gmail address u forwarded to and hence avoid the limitations.
There many limitations associated to using webmail such as what u just experienced and for u to track ur outbound u need a paid email trackers.
Even large organisations don't use webmail, they do synchronise their custom email to office 365, and some do forward to gmail, outlook or all other crm software.

micynute94:


Same method I use..

It works 95% of the time.

cc:bologzy

BTW boss, do you still use the free Gmail account to outbound? ..

Thinking of going for a [b]Gsuite custom emai[/b]l address but I don't know how effective that will be as the Cpanel version was almost a disaster as far as deliverability is concerned.

Boss if you can afford 5k at most you don't need gsuit. all u need do is to get a brandable domain for urself( it will serve as ur company name) get small package hosting and create unlimited custom email for yourself like info@domain.com, contact@domain.com, sale@domain.com, urname@domain.com etc and u will forward all these name to Gmail accounts.
You will be able to receive and send email at d comfort of ur Gmail and even track all ur emails with free tracking software.
Another advantage of this is u can slam like two pages website to promote ur domains.
I have been using this for a year plus and is working quite well and cost effective.
You don't need to be technically inclined before u can do this.


If guys want me to do a tutorial about this I will like to share under ur permission

Hello house
Congrats to the latest sellers...

Mehn the month is almost rounding up....

No serious sales because of the pandemic, even outbounding is tiring now.

Just some few. $100 sales on different names....

BABA GOD DO YOUR WORK...
CORONAVIRUS MUST END,THE SAME WAY IT CAME

MY GOD LIVES....

Definitely pandemics really have effect on some people's sale, I have not recorded a single sale either this month but am still happy for sales report in here.
God protect us all. Let us adhere to safety tips this period......We have a GOD that is bigger than covid19 and is going to save us but we too on our part must yield to safety instructions.

Hello boss can you please point me to the hosting company and affordable plan you use.. I use Zoho custom mail but I noticed at times my messages lands in spam please other bosses in the house help a brother out.

I use hostnownow

iCauseTrouble:

UPDATE.
I saw the domain in godaddy closeout and I bought it for $8 plus $12 renewal making $20.
Domain already in my account.

I'm also watching a domain since two month ago, its currently in redemption period now. Is 3 worded, am thinking of backorder. I don't know whether name.com do put their domains in closeout?

flydomains:


Yes

368/$

Is working back again at a better rate.

But the 5$ Flat fee remains so just the rate was increased a bit, I think is due to the Naira/dollar crash

Thanks for sharing

flydomains:
Africard is working again

It has been confirmed

Is it with PayPal? Have you successfully make a withdrawal?

sammchuck1:


Without a DN like Dan dot com beside the name, does it look less professional?

. No it doesn't, depends on what you want or your perception of professional.
But I tailor how my name appears with what big companies are doing. If you received email from GoDaddy and the likes they only put their brand name. Why ?because of the brand resonance.

Qulink1:

Thanks Boss for this
2 questions sir
I guess it can't be done using an Android phone
2)is it possible to update it using system will it appear when I use phone Gmail

Bro I no be boss ooo...am just learning like u, to ur question, have not done on Android before, I guess is more easier when u undertake the process with ur PC and you get the same result on both android and PC if done properly

Hello Friends,
If you deal with the Geo domain as I do, Then you need to pay attention to this little tutorial. I will try to upload a screenshot for better understanding.
Say you want your email to look like:Simon| Dan.com or Pearl from Quidax:

From Your Gmail go to;

Settings click on Account and Import, hover to Send Email As, then click on Edit Info. A small page will pop up. It shows your name in google account that is the default name you used to open your email and what your recipients will see when you send them an email.
To make changes, just click on the button below and input the name you want.

For those of you who use custom email address for outbound, how do you beat the spam trap?

Was sending out emails yesterday. At first, they were being delivered well. But later on they started landing in spam. I sent to an old gmail account of mine and it landed in spam, with the reason being because the mail was similar to those detected by gmail's spam filter.

It would seem though that the issue is only with gmail. I'm not sure other web and corporate mail addresses flagged my mail as spam (not sure. Just hope they didn't).

What do you think? Please, share your thoughts and experience in this.

Cc ollybode, Ayorich, etc.

In my own case, I have like 4 custom email addresses that I forwarded to my four different Gmail accounts. The fact is that, frequent outbound with one email address whether Gmail/custom is not advisable because some of the recipients may decide to flag your address, apart from Gmail wahala.
I also use the following tools:
mail-tester/com and emailcopycheker/com to check the spam trigger words in the content of my email.
I will always advise you to always switch your email addresses when you do heavy outbounding.

Four custom email addresses; How?
Since I have taken this domain biz seriously. I registered my own business name and go for a very affordable hosting plan. So, From my control panel, I can create an infinity custom email addresses. What I did is to create just four and forwarded them to four different Gmail account(email addresses) for me to track the emails. I send all of my mails from Gmail using email forwarding and track them accordingly, I don't send from webmail. I equally have a parallax site to display some of my domains.

The strategy is that I have 8 emails all together for outbound. Sometimes I do alternate the Gmail addresses to send outbound, at times I do alternate the custom addresses. These have been working well for me without any spam wahala. These only cost me #8k investment per-annum. I guess it is not too much of investment cos I make my sales.

When am less busy I will give a short tutorial on how to make our email look a little bit professional by adding a nice signature. stay tuned.

Am not disputing the fact that life span of domain may have little impact on the sales, provided is memorable, flow with trend and keyword rich. We have seen domain name that was registered within couple of months and sold high. Many things work together in this business.
Sometimes some sales go against norms, either will like it or not. It happens

priceaction:


you guys should learn at times why it sold for that much and the one we are talking might not. Though, anything can happen in domaining but in basic principle, this is the reason:
