How many domains you outbound, end up selling to end-users?
If you outbound 30 domains per month, how many of them sell?

I do geos and I sell at low to mid xxx (high xxx only few times). I became 1yr old in domaining beginning of this month. And my total STR closed at 35%+ at first year for all types of domains (Geo+EMD + brandable).
And 43% for solely Geos.

Hand regs, or bought from other?

Thank you

I think this might need to have better clarity on exactly how the sell through rate is computed. Typically it is the number of sales in a time period of one year compared to the number of items for sale. That is if I have 100 domain names and do outbound on them all and sell 3 at the end of the year that is 3%.

If I do outbound on 100 names in the sense of contacting people and at end of month 3 sell, that might be a different way to compute a sell-through rate, but is not the same since others might sell 11 months from now.

Or there could be a totally different kind of sell-through rate for every x outbound messages do you get a sale. For example, if I send out 1000 messages and results in 2 sales, that is a 0.2% "outbound rate" of some kind.

Those numbers seem extraordinarily high from my experience and talking with others doing this.

It's all hand registered. Sorry I replied without understanding your whole quote.
All the names sold were hand registered
Thanks

That should be around 15% which is very commendable. Seems you are doing it right.
Would you be okay sharing a few names for example and the budget range ?

The range was between $100-$400.

That's a lot. I mean 35% is huge. For every 20 domains, that's like 7 domains sold. How do you achieve that? Do you do extensive research on the domain names that you buy? How much time investment is that?

2% in outbound? What niches? How many leads do you reach out? How many follow ups? I think you can increase that.
You don't outbound or you didn't happen to sell?

Correct. You are damn smart, Bob! That makes sense. I mean actively selling. The second option. Not sure how high the chances of selling in another 11 months are, given the geo names they are. I think, it possibly won't be game changing.

That is our outbound wizard:xf.smile:
Absolutely. Looks like either he is doing something extraordinary or the domains are extremely good.

Did you outbound on all of them? How many leads per domain? How many follow ups?

I don't outbound much. Most don't reply unless i send them a super premium name.
I specialize mostly in 2 word domains... and i'm not sure it's worth the hassle. You can check my signature to see the kind of names i have.
Maybe my email wasn't convincing enough or something.


Have you had success doing outbound?

I do Outbound, I do follow ups. I don't do any research, in fact, I handreg (not even wait for ED drops). Once I like the keywords in domain and they number of endusers is quite good (20+) I buy it.
The time investment is like the Normal time everyone invest in Outbound. To break it down, I spend around 2hrs per domain for first Outbound (to source endusers and to send email).
And less than 15minutes per domain for follow ups (just reply initial email).

Thanks a lot for sharing! That's amazing!
You have optimized it pretty well.

Are these keyword rich names or Geo's?

I use Gmail
Have you ever had a gmail account closed by spam?

I just in case would use an account only for that and not an important one

But anyway most probably I'll go with an email of my domain
