How to Approach someone about inquiring a domain?

[chasea336]

Hello I am new to domains so this might seem like kind of a dumb question.

If i wanted to email someone to see if they had possible interest in acquiring my domain, what would be the best way to carry that out?

Any advice is welcomed, thanks!

Say hello, I am the owner of blahdeblahblah.com and I see you are in the market of selling blahblah, this site currently gets 2000 views every nanosecond and is a page rank 5 domain, I am currently accepting offers on this domain right now, if not I will send it to auction.

The main points you need to make clear is that you have a domain, you have identified that they may have a need for it, you have identified people are using it to find out what what the company sells and you need to let the company know the benefits of owning that name above all others.

Also while not being rude about it you must state that you are also in contact with other companies selling the same blahblah products, if they can simply wait for you to drop it because no one wants to buy why should they give you money for it?

Oh yes, make sure the name you are trying to sell is superior to the one they currently own, in England especially the domain names that people have are crap...they show absolutely no correlation in the name and what the company actually does, however if you point this out and tell them that is the reason no one cares about their company they get in to a huff...Make sure the domain you are trying to sell is very strong compared to their own, if you can get it placed higher in Google than their own that is a definite selling point. (And maybe they will fire their web designer and give you the job instead :p)
