Know your Enduser


1.Don't get too excited until payment is made.
The sale has not taken place until you have received the money.

2. If the end-user tells you, "Let me discuss with my IT guy", that end-user is most likely gone forever.

3. Note the words he used when he send his offers and know when to counter and when you accept.
How about $200 ? isn't the same with I can pay $200 for the domain.

4. Asking you the price doesn't mean the are interested, some people are just curious but it also means the domain is valuable.

5. The more questions an end-user asks, the less probability there is he will buy your domain. Serious buyers rarely ask questions.

I agree with that most!

Lol

I remove headdress for you!

Crazeworld:
I use the free version bro

Ok, that's interesting.

E don tey wey I post sales here. Make I post this quick one.

Vacationrentalsportland.king
Sold for $499 in Dan
Hold time: an hour or less

slimjosh43:
Marketing Agency Utah//king
$323
Outbound
Less than 24 hours
Had 103 endusers to contact and buyer was very interested as he responded to my mail less than a minute after I sent it.
I quoted $910 as asking price and he said that was a fair price but he doesn't have that kind of money cos of COVID-19. I told him to make me an offer Baba said $272 I tell am say na money im call but e no reach but say I go do 400 to cover escrow charges.
He responded that I have been so generous with my prices (Baba dey toast me ) but he had to squeeze money around to get up to that 273 that way can be do so that the escrow does not bite me so bad so I said let's do $350 but he begged for $323 and I agreed. All these from 1st mail to the sale was for just a lil above 1 hour.
I put him through the UndevelopedEscrow process and he paid. How I wish I had PayPal as the buyer had a porkbun account I for just keep the $51 I paid Dan.

Why did I accept his price?
I had just sent 18 mails before he responded and while I was chatting with him I was still sending mails but no one has responded as at the 34th mail out of 103 so I said Omo make I rest since the domain is less than a day with a good ROI.

Sorry to bore you guys.

As we say "we move ooooooo"

Congrats, bros! More sales.

I am amazed how you guys pull off sales like these. I am not sure if I have ever sold a name earlier than the first 60 days. Well, maybe it's because I typically wait until the lock is off, though.

To even sama the one or two people who inquire about prices in some cases high prices sef dey fear me. Imagine Josh quoting $910 for him domain name. Una get liver o.

PS: Slimjosh43, please how did Dan charge $51 on a $323 sale?

Crazeworld:
Yes, you're right about the 200 mailtrack per month. That's for the free version and I think it's okay.

But the 50 mail merge limit article was written in 2013, not applicable today. Just last week, I sent a merged mail to over 200 contacts using streak.

Thought I should ask; do you use the paid or free version of Streak? I'm trying to figure something.

That's an interesting one. You know I never tried to even send more than 50 emails in a merge? I need to do that now. Who doesn't want to save more time after all?

Crazeworld:
The free version only restrict tracking to 50 mails after enjoy the full version for 14 days. I'm not sure but you can learn more on their website.

You can send to any number of recipients (there's no restriction) but I'd advise you don't send more than necessary especially if it's a new Gmail account.

No, I am not sure you are correct about that. I found out you can track 200 emails for free per month from my research several weeks ago. You may search something like "free streak tracking limit" on Google; you might find the information.

As for merge limit, you may visit here: blog dot streak dot com/streak-brings-mail-merge-to-gmail-34a060a608ce?gi=5ad67e27ef20 (replace the dot with .) to learn more.

This news hasn't helped what I was contemplating of doing with the account I have with them.

Is it now that they are downsizing that they'd have the time to respond to a complaint email and Twitter post I made since over a month now? Another reason many businesses don't last in Nigeria.

Julius209:
boss, how do I locate ''insert variable icon'' in the gmail?

After uploading a CSV file containing lead info, you will notice a clickable text with those words below the message composition area - around where you'll usually find the "Send" button.

mobiss:
Per year.

CornOak:
Yearly.

Thanks for the response.

Chosen1984:
Who told u? Have u met them?

Who told me, really? In this age of Google? Even the documentary in which I first learnt about the place tried to re-create some of the things they did.

Oh! You have met them to know they fully know the difference between good and evil? Interesting.

Sorry, this back-and-forth isn't getting anywhere obviously. Let's forget this, please.

Chosen1984:
Before he went there, GOD KNEW! For the fact that they killed him shows that they know what is good and evil..
If not they would have also killed them selves

If you said so. Mind you, these are people who are generally hostile to outsiders. It's like they had also attacked other people who had a good intention. Who attacks a person who means good to oneself?

PS: I wonder why everyone keeps mentioning Sentinel Island, though. Is that the only place with little contact to the outside world and hostility towards Christians? Some people are probably just hearing about it.

Chosen1984:
Did you hear what he did before he was killed!

He Screamed and told them about JESUS Christ.

That is a Witness..

But did they understand him at all?

I'm not saying that he or people like him did the wrong thing, by the way. No! I also adhere to the Christian faith, just so you know.

Of course, I believe he'd receive a just reward from his Maker.

Chosen1984:
Sentiel island have had a Know witness of the Gospel

The man who went to North Sentinel Island to preach the Gospel was killed by the inhabitants. I learnt that after reading a little more about the place when I first got to know about it 1-2 years ago. I'm not sure the people understood him a bit.

It's probably correct to say the Gospel has spread everywhere. But people's perceptions of it differ. For instance, if I have been told that you are a liar, the way I'd respond to you will not be the same as when I wasn't told such.

Plus10:
Sounds good but are there no places in those Countries you mentioned where the Gospel has not been preached at all?Or is it right to say for example all cities,town and villages in Saudi Arabia have heard about the Gospel?

Do you wish to go to such places if they existed? I'm struggling to understand the basis of the question you asked with the original post.

You can be sure that you will find people to preach to in Saudi Arabia and many other countries and locations around the world. Even in Nigeria people are still spreading the Gospel, so what's stopping you?

HOW TO SEND MASS INDIVIDUALLY CUSTOMIZED MAILS THROUGH STREAK
Alright guys. Don't follow this tutorial if you need testimonies because me never sell domain before o
However, you can learn to simplify your outbounding work by sending mails easily. I've also realized that Google doesn't lock my account since I started using this method.

This is called mail merge. You can send multiple emails (800 mails in 24 hours according to Streak) with just a single click. And that's not all, the mails can be customized to show individually the name of the recipient, organization, etc.

You can even schedule the mails to send at a later date/time and since the mails are personalized, your end users get the mail delivered like it was address to them only. In addition, the mails are tracked so you can tell who read it and who didn't.

Okay I see you are interested. So what do you need?
1. A gmail account that has the Streak app installed.
2. A PC (I'm not sure this can be done on mobile phones)
3. Your time (or you pay me if you're a lazy youth)

STEPS
1. Create a document using Microsoft Excel. The Row headings just the way I do mine is NAME, COMPANY, & EMAIL ADDRESS. Now fill the columns with the corresponding headings. e.g.
Crazeworld (Name), Crazeworld Consults (Company), ceo@crazeworld.com (email address).
Fill with as many end users that you have available.

2. When you're done, save the file as "CSV comma delimited" (very important)

3. Now open gmail in your Chrome browser.
Click compose
In the recipient box, click on mail merge.
Click upload CSV. Locate your CSV file and hit enter.

The Streak app will automatically select the email addresses as the recipients. If you have 70 end users, it will show you that you have 70 mails to be sent.

4. Enter your preferred subject line as subject for the mails. Like someone suggested, I use my domain keywords as subject. KitchenPlumber/king will be Kitchen Plumber.

5. Copy and paste your sales letter in the message box. Edit to you satisfaction. (Bold, Italize, etc.)

Example.
Hello Lala,
I have Nairaland.ng for sale. This is a good domain name for Nairaland Forum.

Now let's say the above is the sales letter you're using, it already has the variables I'd want to personalize for each end user. (Recipient name and company name like we have in our CSV file)

6. To personalize the mails
Highlight the "Lala"
Click on variables (you will see it close to the "send" button)
It will display the row headers you have in the CSV file (Name, Company, Email).
Select name. What this means is that "Lala" will automatically be replaced with the individual names for individual mails in the CSV file.

Highlight "Nairaland Forum" and repeat step 6 to replace company name.

When you're satisfied with everything you can hit "send" and watch as the messages get dispatched.

Nice tutorial! Wished I saw this when I was trying to figure out how to do this over a week ago.

What I also read or learned during the process are:

1. You can only send 50 emails per merge (maybe for the free version only), although you can do more than one merge.

2. It's not compulsory to include a name in your template (message). Simply leave a space between the "Hello" and "," and let the cursor be by the side of the comma. Then click "Insert Variable," or similar, below the message box (after uploading your CSV file) and select the heading/title of the column where you have names of contacts or businesses.

Hmmmm o GA. You still get time dey dictate specification

Na the "divorced gentleman" aspect get to me.

Let me talk to myself a little.

Marriages for working class? What's that?

Threads like this are supposed to be for people like us wey no get work and don't get opportunity to mix with people often. Na we suppose to dey come online dey find who go fit accept us for who we are.

I don't think I'd understand why people who are gainfully employed and doing well would prefer to come to a faceless forum in search of love. I'm talking about the men here.

Don't you get opportunity to interact with single ladies often in the course of your work? Does the fact that you are gainfully employed not give you confidence to speak to a lady? Would you rather prefer a total stranger to someone you see often and know a little about? I can go on and on.

Well, maybe some guys are just trying to get an easy lay. Abeg make una no crucify me o.

What I deduced from my reading so far

Park - It means, try as much as possible to get a unique domain that could be bought at a cheaper rate and sell at a higher rate. The domain can be checked on godadddy, www.ionos.com and others for availability.

List- After registering on the any of the above site v to get the domain, you decide on a price to sell. It can be sold on godaddy, sedo, afternic etc

Contact end users- There is a letter you can send to the end users to inform them on availability of the domain.

My trial
With the little information gathered, I have tried getting a domain and registered. www.socialworkmagazine.com. I have put it for sale on sedo and afternic.

It is just my trial, I am ready to learn more.

Please, how do I get the sample of the letter to end users.

Stll reading though

Stop!!! Please don't register any names yet. Read and understand first to avoid wasting your money. Follow the latest instructions provided by ElonMosque.

Also, I'd advise that you do not search for a domain name on a registrar, such as GoDaddy, until you are ready to buy. Use the InterNIC WHOIS for your research instead to confirm if a name is available.

Congrats on your sale, bro. I wish you more.

If na me, I go be like when contemplating .com for businesses based in Canada.

meetme01:
I have started reading. On page 18 presently. I have two unique domain which I checked on 1&1 ($10) and godaddy.($5) are available. The domain are job inclined

Can I buy on godaddy. Where do I sell? Reading through.

Job kwa? Apparently, as ElonMosque stated, you may need to read the first 100 pages if that's still the stage you're at page 18. You will also know more about where to sell after doing that.

Good luck!

Epositive:
What happened in 1996?

Nothing at all. Something told me that someone would want to know.

ElonMosque:
cc meetme01

But did you realise that might seem like too much work for some people?

I believe he should have basic idea of what this is about after reading the first 20 pages. I think Iyke provided that within that range. Just saying.

EGUNSOLA14:
try to make withdrawal by btc 400/$ as at last week

I thought you were talking about purchasing in USD. You didn't mention withdrawal in your post na and I didn't do that in mine.

livebyday:
You should have blocked your line immediately
You should have blocked your atm
You should have blocked your account immediately those items where taken

You where negligent

You must pay the funds back unfortunately

Mind you, interest rates are gathering

This is somewhat unkind and inconsiderate! Sorry I had to say that. Did you ever consider the possibility that he didn't know he could have done any of those things? Even if he did, some people are poor with decision-making when disoriented.

Those things you mentioned aren't always as easy as you made them sound here in Nigeria. For example, what if he didn't have a second MTN line? Calling customer care from another network can be another story entirely.

I'm actually shocked that the bank can grant a loan request so easily. And how was it possible for transfers to be made without providing sensitive personal information? Which one be WhatsApp transfer again?

OP, if I were you, the foregoing are some of the questions I would ask the bank. I'd even threaten to take my story to the CBN, especially with regards to those questions.

No bank dare try this crap with me, I tell you. Otherwise, what happened in 1996 might repeat itself.

Omo, so police report and court order na money. Nigeria, I hail thee.
