Using and Buying Domains Part 2
December 2, 2015
This is fresh from the Report Desk….
This is the true story of being #toolate to “get your domain” …
On Sunday, November 29th in the pm, a group organizing a new club for a January 2016 launch decided on the dot club domain. It was available. Yes, it was available … just sitting there waiting to go to work for the new club. After seeing their new domain unregistered.
They selected P_____ to register it on Cyber Monday since he would be online shopping for deals. Well he was so immersed in the deals. He forgot to register the domain. Then came Tuesday. Back to work he went. “I’ll do it when I get off”, he concluded. Now it’s Tuesday night, his favorite drama show was on the last few minutes before midnight …. it’s still there!
“I’ll do it in a minute”. Yes he said, “I’ll do it in a minute”. By now you probably realize what happened and you are right. In those few minutes someone else grabbed it.
He went to register it just at midnight on Tuesday and it was gone … Tearful, he spent the better part of today to find out what happened. Well, what happened was “he didn’t take the less than five minutes” to register the domain name. Someone else did!
Now it will really cost…
What a story: Isn’t it amazing he spent hours today trying to get a .club when it couldn’t find 5 minutes to register a .club domain. After sending multiple emails back and forth he asked, “What am I going to tell my members on Sunday when we meet?”
The answer we gave …
The answer he was given was so simple … it was stunning!
“Always start with the truth because everything will certainly end with the truth.” We told him to simply tell them exactly what happened and that it will now cost more than a few dollars because some else wants to use it now. The reply he gave was also stunning!
His reply was stunning …
“This is like the Clint Eastwood movie … “I need a ‘Fist full of dollars’, don’t I” … well, “Yes … you got it”, we said.
What a story…
He was right … he now needs a “Fist Full of Dollars” to get those people to to give up the .club domain he could have registered in 5 min.
Message: Domains are not just about the present … domains are about the future … future needs and wants for business.
The Domain King, Rick Schwartz got it and acted upon that knowledge. He secured domains and sold them for from many thousands to millions of “fist full of dollars”.
The domain space has a lot of choices and will continue to gain more. The message remains, domains are about he future not just the present.
Today’s message is this, either secure your preferred domain today for a few dollars or secure it tomorrow for a “fist full of dollars”.
