I get several "similar domain" for sale e-mails everyday. The similar domains being offered to me are almost always total junk. I can understand the convenience for domainers who send them out, but it sure is annoying to receive them.
Its not us or our software
, we limit emails for users to 300/day so this forces them to pick quality leads or offer quality domains. The bulk of the emails you get will be from intrust/huge domains ect they do the mass email blast gig they must send out 100.000-s per day.
We have put in lots of effort to blacklist other domain investors email addresses so that our system does not send offers to people who would not be good end customers but just re-sellers.
Some time ago, I used Estibot lead generation service, but no results. I cancelled after one month. I have not tried Domainero.
It really depends on how you use the tools. Let me give you an example of how we use our own tool:
-Whether we are picking up free to reg or dropping domains or picking a domain up from the after-market, we always research the potential leads before making a purchase. If you are not using Domainero to buy as well as sell domains, then you are not using it to its full potential.
-We use the tool like one would use an excavator, we understand that there will be lots of "dirt" along with the gold and that filtration is necessary. We understand that manual filtration is a part of the job, just like sluicing gold in a pan. Some leads will not have contact info listed but are good leads and worth adding to the mailing queue. Some leads are plain crap and you will get them whether you do manual or automatic search ect. ----> the point: automatic+manual gives better results than just one or the other.
-We take in to account that
75% of all leads are not ready to buy at that particular moment in time for whatever reason. We understand that 3/4 of our offers will not even be opened in the first run. Just sending out one email and writing the lead off is like leaving money on the table. I am not saying we bomb the lead until they buy :D we wait for a few months and make another offer, and most of the time it works. If not we lower the price and offer again after a few months, this works even more.
-We do at least 10 domains/day to have 1-2 sales/day. Some sales will be from the first email. Some will be from emails sent out months ago. Some buyers will buy on the original price, some will buy at a discounted price. Some we extracted/contacted automatically, some manually. The more domains you have the more sales, but it takes lots of discipline and research to have a good portfolio and it needs time to build up in to a decent business.
The number one mistake people make with our tool is to use it on a few domains, not get results from a few emails and throw in the towel. Its like taking an excavator to a plot of land, digging a small hole, sluicing a small amount of earth and quitting. Patience + consistency is key.
I've never tried Estibot lead gen so I'll be glad if anyone here could share his opinion compared with domainero.
We have tested our lead generator against Estibot and Zfbot our tool always gives more results. We have more lead types and we will introduce new ones soon. Not only according to our own opinion but also our customers who have tried both or all.
Kind regards,
The Domainero Team
