As much as I enjoy closing deals, Monday is reserved for a special task: turning down offers and making counter-offers.
A lot of buyers expect you to be willing to go forward with their price, but I’ve found that a good solid “no” on a Monday sends them into a positive spin.
Counter-offers thus arrive at the beginning of the week, and coming to an agreement near its end. It’s a strange business rhythm that seems to follow the circadian activity pattern.
Regardless, it’s good to clean the slate on a Monday, responding to numerous offers via Domain Name Sales, which I use exclusively these days to sell and broker my domain portfolio.
One should keep in mind that some negotiations can take longer than a week; the pause of the weekend often gives the buyers time to regroup and reconsider their budget.
At any rate, a “no” at the beginning of the week seems to generate more interest and activity, than when delivered by the week’s end.
Thank God it’s Monday!
