interviews How Mike Faith Creatively Purchased And Grew Headsets.com

Wow, a 10-year lease-to-own for Headsets.com. The longest I've ever offered is 36 months, and that feels like an eternity.

It was interesting to hear him discuss how Google favored their Exact Match Domain and how that benefited them as Google grew. That had to be exciting.

I really enjoyed the length and format of this video. It's tough to find an hour or more in a workweek to watch videos, but 15 minutes is perfect!

Thanks for your feedback. I've heard others share the same thoughts and it's something I wrestle with -- providing enough details (which typically takes an hour to deep dive into) versus a superficial overview. I've got an idea on how to do that -- stay tuned.

Then they could be added to IMDb!

Okay, so I know we aren't all multi-taskers, but I love the current length, because I can listen to this while I am cooking breakfast in the morning. What I love about your reviews is that you can download to MP3. As a super busy mom, I find that I am always on the go. Having something really interesting to listen to make my chores and errands go faster. Thanks for all your hard work Michael!

Thanks @DomainEmpress.

Love all your videos! Learned so much from you guys!

Thanks, @ricksinfoshop!

Great share Sherpa

There you are @DomainSherpa. :D All the best for NamesCon live show

@DomainSherpa ,

There's no question that a great domain name will yield the greatest revenue stream possible. This has been seen repeatedly within the last few years. It's always beneficial to learn how a founder has succeeded in their venture and your take with Andrew Warner of Mixergy.com on Mike Faith of Headsets.com should be a wake-up call for some. There is very good business advice subtly within the questions and answers.

Most companies will go bust without more capital feeding them than Headsets.com initially began with if there isn't proper planning and a sustainable business model. It appears there was a solid model as well as helpful contracts with their vendors that got them to where they are.

Has anyone been able to start with less seed money? I can honestly say that I started with much more, but made a blunder before I learned. What would it take an entrepreneur to have in order to make a success like Headsets.com happen?

It seems like Mike Faith has a clear business mind as he knows exactly what he is doing and the strategic moves that he must make in order to cut costs. That being, his forward thinking of tax write-off's with leasing a domain over 10 years and having expenses yearly that could be used to his benefit.

The publicity move that Headsets.com made was interesting. I had to look this up and found the video with Mike Faith and Jason HeadsetsDotCom, which is another intriguing watch to add on to your interview that expands on their success.
