Patience is a virtue in the domain business

With regards to domain investment and sales, I tend to do things the fast way: I close deals quickly, after negotiating in a sharp manner.

I don’t have time to waste. My method and approach to doing business online is often perceived as arrogant, but trust me, I’ve never had any real life complaints.

The truth of the matter is that many disagree with me. And that’s fine, because one can be patient in how they approach certain business opportunities in domain investment.

When Rick Schwartz negotiated the sale of Candy.com, that was the ultimate paradigm of engaging patience as a domainer’s virtue.

Unfortunately, this is not a virtue that I can always stake a claim to, but I appreciate it in others. This way, I’ve learned that one can be flexible, e.g. when negotiating a price or when making an offer with long term benefits.

The bottom line is, that adapting to the flow of events but maintaining your own momentum works best. Sometimes, one has to slow down and regroup, other times one must go forward as if their life depended on it.
