Your complaining of no sales, but you mean small sales because you are doing fine with big sales ?
Kinda confusing.

what to do now

Try to keep motivated, and try different things. If your names are that good, buyers will find them and the enquires will come. Where are you promoting your names? Are your BIN prices realistic? Are you investing in quality names?

If your answer to the latter is no, perhaps now is a good time to stop buying and do more reading up.

Yes, it's late here but us hardcore domainers live and breathe nP! Get past 12, and we offically are - The Night Shift!

Sorry, back to the topic...

1. diversify your portfolio
2. list everywhere - you know as they say, you have to be at the right place, at the right time, with the right people that are capable to buy.
3. wait and be patient i for one, when i say im gonna quit then sales will come in, must be the declaration thingy.
4. apply in 2 more day jobs
5. think of another product/services to be busy on while waiting for sales

are some of the things that comes to mind.

Amen brother. Biggest mistake I made in the beginning was just listing at one place. Lost months of possible sales.

You said that you get ngtlds just for fun. Well, there is no fun when you don't sell. The biggest problem with you is your ego. Kill your ego, before you lost your desire for domaining. Don't take it personally, I try to fight my ego too. I think that's the key point which blocks you to sale. We are trying to help here. Totally avoid ngtlds. Convince yourself that they don't exist. Stay on .com, strictly. Buy quality, less quantity. Think, there is no ego in domaining. Say you don't know nothing. Starting from zero, its a way to reboot your business.

I had not realized from your concise OP that you had numerous sales, just not over the summer. That would have changed some of the advice which was meant for someone who had not yet completed their first sale. I very much agree with @Jurgen Wolf that, in general, summer is slower, and you should not read too much necessarily into lack of sales and inquiries in July and August. Hopefully September will be more active for us all!

xx sales: just waste time

I went to your website find. ventures and all of your domains are for sale for under $25, most for $5.
Why would you waste the time and effort to reg those names, put up a site and then sell them for less than reg fee ?

I'm just trying make sense of what the real issue is here.

I think we need to learn How to make sale!

Sales surely happens when the product you are selling is valuable in the eyes of your client and client gets connect to the product emitionally. Client won't see the price of your product but see the value of your product and it is valuable for them they can pay your price even without negotiation!

I prefer the quiet of the morning........

Premiums, there is a lot of good advice on here - can you share the sites you have listed on?

Sedo, Godaddy, Afternic, Dynadot, Undeveloped etc etc. Any Brandables listed on BB or BP? Etc

How much traffic goes to your own site? How many sales have you had from it?
Would be interested to see your reply

With your site, as a consumer I would have to email you if I'm interested? This may put people off who are not 100% sure, you should think about adding a payment option on there - helps with quicker decision making and maybe some logos, as visuals help paint a picture in a buyers mind.

Ngtld's offer an easy illusion. They make you think that you have a ''premium'' name, only because you have an average, not top keyword, combined with a mediocre extension. Up to one point, i really understand the confusion which can have a starter. BUT
The time is money. You can lose time with tricky and risky business. You want to start to gain right? So, totally avoid every single move that may cause you confusion. Choose the safe path and go ahead. I know it's not so easy as it sounds, but you can complain all the time for no sales. Not for me, not for the others, but for you. The good thing is that threads like this, may help and others to avoid doing what you do. It's clearly up to you to accept the help or keep on moving your ship on the rocks. If anyone told you that domaining is easy nowadays is a liar. Understand the basics....Wait a minute do you know what really is NP? It's a huge bank of knowledge! Use it and you will improve yourself.

Good point - Nothing worse for your pockets than being stubborn and blinkered to reality.

Hello,

payment option? paypal USD bitcoin whatever ...

all domains listed for sale on Afternic/Godaddy with buy now prices $50 (escrow included)

I do not use Sedo a 1and1 scam company.

why i should use BB? it is not free - they are "scamming" domainers.
