Seems prices are going up everywhere o. I got my current number after buying 500 credits or so last year.

If you have the money, I'd suggest that you simply pay for credits. The number will be like a bonus.

However, note that you must use your free number at least once a month (call or text) to retain it. Otherwise, it may be reassigned to another person.

Thanks boss. I would just go with this option

EtimAbasiama:
The umber will be given to you for free as long as you make use of it every month. From my own experience

Alright. Thanks boss

Hello bosses
I'm trying to purchase a number on dingtone. One of the options available shows I can get access to the number for 1 year if I purchase 1200 credits.. Is that the best option, or should I just go ahead and pay for the number intead.



And please who here has tried VYKE because it appears their rates are cheaper than what dingtone charges.

.

Bosses, what should I do here, or should I just ignore him.

Has any one noticed mails sent via boomerang ends up in the spam folder if the destination mail is a yahoo mail address.
I tried sending a message to my yahoo mail address via boomerang, but it ended up in spam. Meanwhile the same message sent via my gmail app goes straight to the inbox.
You guys should try it let me know if I'm the only one experiencing this.

Essont:
Thank you for your email. How long have you owned .....Iimos.com and why would it be important that you would offer it to me I am just curious. I know many competitors would take it in a heartbeat.

If you should know I got screwed over by many limo companies in the greater toronto area. I broker I don't have limos but was so busy 2012 thru 2018 but I got hit hard when companies didn't pay me what they owed me and all those years that I believed I was building a clientel I was informed that those clients that i sent to other companies took their info even after in my contract with them stated that they would not ask any person in the limo for their info the client would call dispatch (me) and I would call the company. Since this hit and the pandemic we are going thru now I have not been busy not a phone call to book in a year. I own other domains as well such as.................,.........,....... and I was actually contemplating on what I would do with them. Its Christmas as these last two years have been difficult even if I wanted to buy the domain coming up with that money at the moment would be an issue. If you can't wait or don't have options for me I can forward your email to a colleague of mine who owns two or three domains and has limos who would be very interested in buying it so selling and you making money would not be a problem if that's what you wanted to do. Let me know and thank you for reaching out to me to make this offering I do appreciate it very much and if I had the funds available I would have for sure made arrangements to purchase it.




HI BOSSES, GOT THIS FOR A LIMO DOMAIN I OUTBOUNDED, THE LONG EPISODE GOT ME COLD, PLEASE HOW BEST SHOULD I RESPOND TO HIM?

I'm not a boss, but I've once listened to a podcast on domain sherpa where one of the speaker spoke about proposing a payment plan option to sellers when they complain about being low on cash.
You might wanna consider pitching that option to him.

This guy is a legend. How comes he knows all these strip clubs and names of porn stars.

Dreydoe:
Yes. I always fill in contact form. ALWAYS!

You are a marketer always put your product in front of your audience by any means necessary.

Don't Dull.

I get it. How do you do your follow up for companies which the only means available to contact them is via their contact form.

Dreydoe:
lol.. I just lock up and din't want to say anything further on this scraping of emails stuff. sometimes personal experience is the best teacher.


You see all this software people use in scrapping mails 99% of them are trash.

You will always end up getting unrelated emails and sending outbounds to the wrong people >>> Spamming.


Your gmail account will always get banned.


If you really take this GEO business serious and you want to make money from it.

Manual scrapping of emails one by one is the 100% surest way to go. Don't deceive yourself

You just have to put in the time and manpower to your outbounds and always fill in the website contact form also use VPN while at it.

All those contact forms are tracking your location. Unfortunately being a Nigerian can cost you that sale.

They may be interested to buy the domain but may lose interest when they see your location as NIGERIA.. Better to be safe than sorry.

You need the sale.. You need the ROI!

Don't Dull...

I don't get it. You mean you still go ahead with filling of the contact after you've sent them mails or you do this only when you can't find their emails.

Why do I have to pay to redirect a netsol registered domain or is there something I'm missing.

First sales alert.

Hold time: 4 months
Sales venue: Dan
Got the domain four months ago, did my first outbound, but got no response. Didn't bother sending any message again until last week when I followed up with a reduced price. The buyer asked for a proof of ownership. I redirected the domain to his site and sent him screen shots of the domain in my go daddy account. The buyer then replied that he would have one of his colleagues look into it. I waited for over 24 hours, when I got no mail from him, I sent a message reminding him,but I got no response. I just thought to myself that I've probably lost the sales. I thought of what to do. Sending him more messages would be considered as spamming so I went to my dan accout and used the import lead feature. I entered all of his details and submitted . kept on checking my mail till I slept of. woke up to a mail from dan that I had an offer for the domain. I quickly accepted and pushed the domain to dan.
By the way, I came across this thread as far back as 2017 when I was on my IT read most of it, but didn't have the cash at that time to invest. Continued coming back from time to time to read till March 2019 when I bought my first and only domain at that time. Did outbound on that domain,but didn't get any replies. I thought I've had enough. Forgot about everything. A time came when I needed money so I sold off my PC and my phone. At that point, I had no means of checking my mails not until January this year when I bought a new phone only for me to realise after checking my mail that my lone domain sold for $400 dollars in september last year. Afternic kept on sending me messages to transfer the domain. I thought of what to do,but there was probably nothing to be done at that time. Afternic blocked that account which till date I cannot access.
That incidence brought me back to domaining. I promised I was gonna invest a certain percentage of my NYSC allowance on domaining. Bought some stupid names and if I did get replies from end users during out bounds, they were usually not encouraging.
I couldn't keep to my plans of investing my NYSC allowance because I thought ponzi scheme would be a better investment. Well you can guess what happened at the end. I lost everything I put there.
I finally came to my senses when I finished NYSC and there was no more allowee inflow and decided to do follow ups on some of my domains. Did for the first few without any positive responsetill I did for this domain.
I know that just one sales doesn't qualities me to advice the newbies and oldies that are yet to get their first sales, but as the bosses would say, " resilience, patients and the willingness to learn" is all that is needed to succeed in this business. Twenty months before making a sales "no be beans". For the past six months, I haven't missed a single day without visiting this thread and I'll say it's worth it. Everything you need to know is right here. I don't bother people here to guide me on how to do certain things because almost every question I have has been answered here in times past.
Finally, thanks to the creator of this thread and all the bosses always ready to answer all our stupid questions. You guys are the real MVPs.

Hello bosses, please how do I go about this. Please I don't want to ruin my chances of selling this domain.

Sapiosexuality:
Not bad. Yeah, I'm new. Getting ready to begin next month. Any advice?

I'm in no position to advice you because I'm yet to make any sales. But as the bosses here would say, read this thread like you're preparing for an exam.

Sapiosexuality:
What about registering in other places? Or is it that certain domains can only be found in one place?

It appears you're new here...
You can submit unregistered brandable names on squadhelp. If the name is good enough by their standard, they register the names and bear the burden of renewals while you earn about 20-25 percent of the sales price when the domain sells....
If you have the money, you can register the domains yourself and submit to them for review, but note, this would cost you one SH coin which is one dollar, but in this case, you take the lion share when the name sells.

fergusen:
Your unregistered domains (that have been pending reviews for extended periods of time) have been submitted in an ongoing naming contest by... team. So until the contest is completed, the name most likely will stay like that.

Lot's of things happen on the other side.
I have multiple evidence.

But that's not fair now. I spend hours everyday on ED hoping I can find good names to submit. If I do, they don't review the names on time and sometimes those names end up getting registered by other domainers.

What's wrong with squad help. I have nine names on pending review of which some were submitted since last month while the rest have been there for close to a week now.
Make God just bless person hustle so that I go stop all this unregistered shit on SH.

She's not Igbo. Northern Cross Riverians bear Igbo names like Obi, Ejim etc. Florence Obi is most probably from Obudu.

Submitted some misspelt words to on squad help thinking they would accept them only for them to reject them,but I've seen far worst misspellings listed on their platform.
Squadhelp Bosses in the house just help me look at these names and tell me why they would reject them.

The Duck has been Broken.

Finally! I can smile.

After two years of domaining. I have finally been able to hit my first sale. My story would interest you please read on.

I started in 2018, bought two names (kansasroofingcontractors) and (New Orleanstrucking) and started doing outbounds. I felt that they were good names so would sell on time. Alas, nothing of that sort was to happen.

Money has been the main issue for me I couldn't even participate that much in buying .coms during the netsol $1 promo. I bought a few names though but they all expired on me.

2019 saw me venture a bit into the brandable space of domaining. I had about three premiums on SH but they too like other of my names expired without an offer talk less of a sale.

You can now imagine how frustrated and disappointed I was at myself for not being able to get it right. Seeing people come to report sales after being just 1 month into the game was motivating and at the same time saddening to me.

But I thank God.

2020.

Well, frustration continued... I needed money, I needed money, I needed money. "Wetin man go do nau"? I thought. I then said to myself if I can't sell my own names, let me do outbound for others and see if I can get it right. And that's how I started doing percentage jobs. The sales I made from them weren't mine so I still didn't feel excited about them. I needed my own sales, so I started investing.

Little by little. Continued my outbound, no replies, went back to my drawing board, created new emails changed my sales letter, experimenting... then i saw improvements in responses, mind you I wasn't getting "yes" but at least I was getting responses albeit negative ones. In domaining that counts for something.


So brethren, I kept on praying and working. Just working because I knew that if I gave up my 2 years of trying would have been a waste.


On Fri 28th Aug, I did a fresh outbound for this particular name that sold. Did extensive search and got new end users I had somehow left out before. He replied with his offer and told me that we would have a deal if I accept it. It wasn't a bad offer so I did accept.

This deal took almost one week to finalize and at some point I felt I had lost it even as I had involved Rob of Epik (that man na yeye person btw).

Fri 3rd Sept. buyer paid and he received his domain, Hallelujah!


Domain Name: Mesa///Landscapers///com
SV: Epik
SP: $300 Negotiated from $499 (there was a time I listed it $150 but them nor buy, lol)
Hold Time: 2-3months
ED picked.


Special thanks to Iykepromotions for the thread, he continues to bless lots of lives daily. That in itself is greatness.

My warm appreciation to Promxy94 !! I love you man no doubt... this guy nearly closed a deal for me in 2018 when I just started but somehow it didn't work out. This guy motivate me nor be small

Warm appreciations to Channel5 this guy motivated me steadily,his kind words saw me through the ordeal.

thanks to Mazizitonene, ikhalyfah, AAA593.

Note To Newbies and Old Guys (O.G) alike

1. Always endeavor to be kind and encourage those who haven't made a breakthrough.
2. Don't ever give up!
3. In outbounding keep your mails as short as possible, the moment your mails are perceived as sale letters and are lengthy they get tossed in the trash.
4.Have Faith.

I'm only just getting started y'all!

Thanks for reading this boring piece and God bless you! More Sales!!!

Would you mind sharing the sales letter that gave you a better response rate.
