First I should say "Hello" because this is my first post here. Here the story of my thread title.

Last year I bought a seven-letter expired.com domain. He was with the right SEO metrics with a clean backlink profile and decided to set up a simple WordPress site with 4-5 blog posts. My idea was to index this site and see for possible manual Google penalties. After that, I forget this project for several months.

In December, I got an email from a person who offers $500 for this domain name. The email was sent to the Whois email, not from my contact form of the website.

After a little research, I found that one big corporation is in the process of trademark registration of this keyphrase(same as mine domain).

I sent an email with a higher offer($6 000). After 2-3 emails with the lady, right now, she offers me $1 500.

My question is should I use domain broker service or to try to contact directly the corporation.

P. S. I am from a long time in online business, but mostly in the SEO and marketing niche and this topic is brand new for me. Any advice will be perfect for my next steps.

The money already arrived in my bank account. Thank you for the help and directions, guys. For the first sale of the domain ever, I think this is a good start.
What was the name if you don't mind me asking?
Congrats!

You may continue to discuss with them about the price of the domain name. If you are satisfied, you can sell it. If you are not satisfied, you are recommended to find someone to help you evaluate the real price of the domain name. In this process, the buyer may lose interest at any time, which is normal. Good luck.

I've sold to individuals and I've sold to large corporations (and small corporations). What the buyer is willing to pay has more to do with how important the domain is to him, than how deep his pockets are.

If you think that you've hit the jackpot every time you get an inquiry from a large corporation...talk to avtar629 / WhoaDomain.com ... much easier to blow it by holding out for too much, than it is to close the deal.

I send an email to the director of marketing of the corporation the same night. The email opened four times without a reply. On the next day, I got an email for the $ 2 500, and we start the process via Escrow. I hope in the next few days the deal will be finalized.

Congrats on your first sale. I'm curious, what tools are you using to tell you how many times the email was opened?
