Domain sales letter example

Hi there,
I was wondering if some of you could give some examples of your domain seller letters that you send to partys you think might be interested in buying them.

Dear ......

I am interested in how some of the more experience domainers here pitch their product. In our case domains.

Just an observation....

Thanks for sharing this nicely written letter with everyone.

Slashroot.

I have edited the original SAMPLE LETTER. Yes, naturally it is too reflect "ownership transfer".
Thankyou!

This is an example that Wanda recently posted in the "Domain Discussions" Forum ... and I really think it deserves to be recognized here in this thread, as an effective Marketing sample, IMHO:

I believe he meant it.

oh cool yay! :p

 

[Coastalguy]

Lots of great samples. If I was the recipient of such a letter it would be nice to know about: transfer costs, possession date, hits, asking price, re-registration date, how long the offer is good for, contact info. Some of the letters I've read here contain this info. Good stuff!

 

[katrina]

yeah me too I'm gonna use these as soon as I get domains lol

I am not a great wordsmith and am just learning this domain name business, but this wording got me my biggest domain sale ever, earlier this year - a low offer came out of the blue but with the help of this email to plenty of targetted companies, I ended up with six companies fighting to get the name. The result - a five figure $ cheque for me and a very happy customer who was delighted to get the name.

*****

For the urgent attention of
CEO, [COMPANY]

My name is [NAME] and I am the Registrant and Administrative contact for:

[www.DOMAINNAME.com]

This domain is currently for sale and I intend to sell it in the immediate future. The domain name is available for immediate transfer.

I currently have received an offer of US$XXXX for the name.

Your company features strongly in search engines when looking for [MYDOMAIN] and I believe the domain name would form a useful addition to your business.

You will be aware that all the important extensions of [DOMAINNAME] are already taken and that the dot com version of any name is the first one most people think of when looking for such a site.

I am looking for $XXXX for the name which I believe is a fair value.

If you would be interested in acquiring this name for your business, please contact me by email at

[[email protected]]

within the next 24 hours with an indication of what you feel the name is worth to your business.

Best regards

[NAME]
[CONTACT DETAILS]

I believe this works well if you do indeed have an offer for the name and you can identify other companies who might benefit from it.

I have found that if you ask people to make an offer for what the name is worth to them, generally they will come back with a genuine offer - for me this has far outweighed the ones that come back with a $10 offer!

Their offer may not be as much as your fair value but that is where the negotiating comes in! Alternatively their idea of the name's worth may surprisingly exceed what you think it is worth!

Hope this works for others as well.

Good luck

DavidH

DavidH, you're letter is perfect. I am going to start using something like that

 

[Fusionhost]

This was probably just an example. Whois shows that domain.com was registered on 01-jul-1994. Besides, domain.com would probably fetch upwards of $x,xxx given the sheer number of domain speculators.

 

[Coastalguy]

Here's my tweeked up version:

The title is: "XXXXX.com - Domain Name Inquiry"

"Hello. I am the current owner of the Domain Name: XXXXX.com and am in the process of entertaining offers for this exclusive name. How much would XXXXX.com be worth to your business?

If this interests you, or if you have any questions, please feel free to e-mail me at your convience. No need to reply if XXXXX.com is not in your marketing plan.

Thanks for your time.
