To convert a domain inquiry into a sale, there are certain key elements that must be taken care of.<\/p>\n

It’s not just a matter of pricing the domain right, and in accordance to market conditions.<\/p>\n

Many inquiries lead nowhere, at least temporarily, simply because the buyer is unwilling to make such an acquisition, being unfamiliar with the dynamics of the secondary domain market.<\/p>\n

To achieve a sale, you need to learn how to push the buttons of your potential buyer, and do it right.<\/p>\n

Assuming that your domain assets are of quality, researching the market on behalf of the potential buyer can achieve two things at the same time:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. You will display to them a clear knowledge of their targeted customer base.<\/li>\n
  2. You will be able to utilize the intel for future reference, should this inquiry fall through.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    While you’re not trying to impress your buyer outright, your display of educated research can definitely achieve that end result. Acting as a consultant, versus a salesperson, makes you more likeable.<\/p>\n

    By treating your domain assets as strong pawns on a marketing chessboard, you’re able to define and demonstrate your business strategy to the other party.<\/p>\n

    Business founders worth their salt appreciate a strong negotiation. Weak reasoning behind one’s domain valuation leads to weak offers, and weak sales or none at all.<\/p>\n

    By personalizing your quote, you’re able to customize your engagement with the potential buyer. Never send out a templated response that does not take into account the particulars of the person making the inquiry.<\/p>\n

    In the end, after you’ve completed the domain sale, both parties should feel confident that it was the best outcome: a domain that will be turned into a brand or a product, for a fair monetary exchange.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
