Wyry:
Nigerian girls are useless.

This is becoming a nuisance. Seun, Mynd44, please we don't elements like these here. Let's sanitize Nairaland.

richkal:
Hey yahh bro you need to take heart and be strong. That is the reality of this business.

The easiest thing that might come to your heart is to quit and conclude that its not working.

If I am not going mince words, I advice you to keep push, I believe your sales is around the corner. (This is not motivational talk, One of my students experienced the same)

Also, I will urge you to do follow up on those domain names, assume they are all GEO's, who knows you might make sales.

More so, you can post some of your domain names so the veterans can advise you properly.

P.s: A person like this guy will understand DEEPLY the meaning of GOD's GRACE in this business.

I will also like to see the names too. Zanebaddo, can we see?

U1:
Does anyone here thank buyers or wish them well after a sale?

I haven't been doing that and I felt it's not right. Just reluctant that they might misconstrue it if I did.

Lol. You have nothing to lose. Gratitude and courtesy, where necessary, is always good.

riqmarol:
Good evening Bosses

Pls how do I reply this end-user, specifically about the question part of how to continue in years to come.

Swift replies will be appreciated pls.

I think he's asking for renewal fees. You simply tell him what he'd be paying per year to renew the name. $8.9 for most.

ElonMosque:
If you're using google maps port to bing or use reoon YP scraper($15) to get leads... OR vice versa!

Reoon YP Scraper? This man.

zanebaddo:

What sort of names did you buy? Geo? Brandables? Or?

flexyndavis:
please am totally a baby in these domain business,some one should take me as a child and bless me ,even if any online business is Available,ASUU is treating me bad

Bless you with what? Knowledge, money, both or something else?

Isn't that too expensive for an SD 665?

RenaissanceGuy:
Who can help?

And how are you even sure this American bank account will not charge you? As long as it is Payoneer I believe you can withdraw money to any bank account recognised by their system.

You should rather try to find out how negligible what your American account charges is in comparison to your Nigerian account.

The way Payoneer makes money, I suspect, is by charging a transaction fee just like PayPal. The 26 dollars may not be entirely the fault of the Nigerian banks.

nwosue67:
No but I just thought that a cheap expired domain on ED that has been available for more than 5 days might have some issues that is why nobody have picked it up. But how do I check if it is banned??

I think with Google search console. You have login though. But that's not usually a concern as Google hardly do that. BUT when you don't own the name yet I don't see how that console search or login will go.

You can just type the name with the dot-com on Google search. If it's not there(at least with broken links) it is because (1) it was not indexed by the former owner (2) It is a new hang reg name yet to be crawled or used to build a site or (3) Google has hit it (4) not hosted anywhere. This method won't help much though.

But this shouldn't be your main concern.

nwosue67:
Please can someone reply me on this please

6 days ago? It doesn't matter. That is nothing. What you should concern yourself about is the quality of the name and if you want to go further, you can also if it is banned by Google. But why are you concerned about that? Any story or myth you heard?

U1:
Yeah, you have a point. I usually leave several days before the first follow up as well. I don't like pestering people "unnecessarily."

Talking about reminders, could you give examples of what you type in each message or do you just repeat the same message each time?

No, I don't type the same message. It depends on what the person said.

For example one of them told me he's waiting for his IT person to come do the transaction but after waiting for days I reminded him what he told me and asked if everything was okay and if he is still interested and he said yes. Whatever he says next will guide my next comment but if he remains quiet I will mail him telling him I'm still waiting for his response and I'm ready to help or guide him if he still wants the domain.

thorrvik55:
To him, it's Grace.. To u it might be luck or whatever u like to call it

But objectively speaking, is it? How many VIP domainers worldwide have this grace?

U1:
I need the help of people who have followed leads for several times (3+) before making some sales. I'm a bit lost for what to do here.

I currently have three people that have expressed interest in what I offered them in the past 1-2 weeks. But they're not taking the action I expected.

- One said he'd tell the IT guy and finance to proceed last week. Followed up and still waiting.

- Another said he'd buy, but didn't do anything after being sent instructions on how to proceed. Followed up and no response.

- The third asked how to proceed; I responded and followed up. No action.

I was wondering if someone that followed up several times before a sale can please help with the series of emails they sent (what each was about). I'm confused at this point. Thanks in anticipation.

I'm actually at the same spot now. My trick is, remind them after every 3-7 days until they say No. If I were in their shoes any attempt at bombardment will be seen as desperation and any attempt at desperation is an opportunity to either buy it low or conclude the domain is trash you want to throw out.

ollybode:
"Depend on your pocket," I think that's a valid point from @promxy94. We should all bear in mind that not all inquiries or offers lead to sale. So, the issue of whether to or not to counter an offer is situational, just like @promyxy94 put it.

Permit me to say this, there is element of grace in domain business. Whether we like or not, I know some people may not agree with my school of thought while some will

What sort of grace? Spiritual grace or just luck?

But on a honest note, besides the two penalties was Ronaldo really in this game? Were you really impressed by his play aside the penalty conversions?

MrJoker:
No, they think that Nigerians are scammers so I pretend that I'm American

I understand. That's not fair though but they can't make me get a foreign number or face.

MrJoker:
I laugh in adjective. Without the USA number, all of them will remove their dp after seeing your message

But why not avoid the messaging instead of hiding your true identity? Doesn't it make you feel like you are doing something wrong?

MrJoker:
Noo, I use my USA number and the response rate is good

But is that necessary? The US number.

Congrats, man. That's patience on another level.

Adesarm:
If i may ask, why is Estates off? I have seen like 3 sites using realestates tho

That's for me though. The value of the singular in this case is higher than the plural. People do not often look for real estates but real estate. It doesn't mean it will sell higher or lower but just that it has the probability to sell lower. I prefer to work with such permutations with respect to the likeliest combinations people use.

CharterService:
Ambulance Service(s)

It's okay even though I'd prefer Ambulance Services. I hope you've registered these names though befofe putting them in public. Except you don't plan buying them. I doubt the name is free though. Geo-locating won't be bad either. E.g FloridaAmbulanceServices

CharterService:
Help with singular or plural domains e.g
real estate or real estates
service or services

Estates is off. Any one from Real Estate Services or Service can go. But is Service(s) the best last word for the name?

KennieKingOba:
pls everyone I want to register
TowSacramento.com

is that a good pick? I'm a newbie in the game.

You don't actually write out the name you want to register here. Ask a mentor or Register it and ask. You can cancel after buying. But don't do it often. By the way, TowSacramento is not a good name. Don't Register.

Femcesc07:
chat him with your yankee number bro.....

I don't have that and I don't have the intention of getting a foreign number. I think I'd reply him and explain everything. And ask him if he still wants a call.

Promxy94:
Are you afraid of showing your real identity.

If not go ahead.

Not really. It's actually a handreg name and I think the person thinks I actually live in the place and ran the website but decided to sale. Will a text do?

Promxy94:
Sandiego//Downtown//RealEstate//Agent//com

Who won that domain during the giveaway I Noticed you canceled the transfer.

Why if I may ask, if no reply comes in from you, I will be forced to give it to another person.

Or better still keep my domain.

Promxy, how do I respond to someone who wants to chat with Zoom and also asked to meet in person? Thanks.

Guys, please how do you respond to someone who wants to chat via Zoom? Dude actually dropped his number. He also asked if he can meet in person.

Reconcile? Someone beats his wife and we are talking about reconciliation? Smh. Will that stop the beating? People like him never change. I pity the woman.

MrJoker:
Do you guys put www. to your domains when outbounding?

Some one said that Google usually mark it as spam when you use it.

What's your response rate with or without the www. ?

Lemme ask like Sapiosexuality sha

That's a good one, I'd try it.

But on another note, I don't think any of you guys can stop me from asking questions. The best you can do is to ignore. Stop getting worked up for nothing.
