I have been selling my decent names almost exclusivity using outbound for a couple of years. maybe I am doing it wrong but sometimes it takes forever to get to the decision maker. I usually target the Marketing Directors and Managers. I am dealing with a HUGE medical device manufacturer now and after 2 months I am still not getting to the right person.

Who do you target and why?

ok thank you for the clarification, I rarely get a email request, I will do the test, and I am confident you are right with your experience, mine is limited for sure. your super helpful, I actually did not use a linkedin helper though, I will tell you so you can have a laugh but I have couple girlfriends, and were building 3 profiles in 3 broad sectors literally hitting the buttons individually via phone app, I found a way to hit about 100-200 per minute, and due to a duplicate annoyance, i figure it gets 20-30% added connections. lots of hours, the guy with 25,000 received multiple xxxx sales via linkedin., I dont doubt your method may be the best way, but just wanted anyone new to know what else is being done to give them a open mind.
the way you have done ...i have done it through linkedhelper but my id then went restricted and started asking email on every new add contact and then i did same like you providing random emails but then what happened i notice no body is accepting my request then i tried it on myself and came to know that now invitations are not going through then i emailed apologize to linkedin and they rejected and from that id was spending on paid ads monthly 2000-3000 usd for my himalayan salt business still they didnt accepted my apologize then i made new id and then i never did mass contact adding
so i am running now only linkedin ads , twitter paid ads, using famous pinterest boards with beautiful pins.

but dont do that straight without reading alot about this else you can lose alot of money for junk clicks..like this happened to me when i targetted broad audience for brightserver.com bunch of users clicked on ad wthout any reason as my targetting was not only owner who have 500+ employees and then i saw stats all clicks came from owners who has 1 or 5 employees so then i started filter and target only big company owners as they dnt click if they are not interested

I would never have thought that big businesses would be the ones to target? Are they really that ready to rebrand?
Would you target small businesses for cheaper domains?

Also, what is your cpc/cpm on linkedin? How cost effective is it?

bottomline in any business is shoutout .... if they are ready to rebrand or not atleast they are seeing your domain if anyone would have interest they will come alot of big companies have bad names and when they feel the name they are seeing is great then they do plan to switch over how teamwork.com sold read story

Riz M... back posting again on NamePros after being in the penalty box for about 45 days. Using Linkedin, and a special message feature I pay $59 a month for, I've made hundreds of valuable contacts that I intend to use in the future. Be sure to scrutinize all Linkedin bio's like you're hiring the targeted person for a job. If you're like me, you'll find you have something in common with almost everyone and you can customize your message. Take a look at my Linkedin bio here on Namepros and you'll see what I mean. I've no doubt that brokers like Sedo, Flippa, Afternic, Undeveloped etc. use some of the very same techniques being discussed here, and I'll be looking to hire some of their sales/marketing people in the future.

The only other thing I'll share is not to say too much. Less is really better, but try to say just enough to get their attention. Good luck!

How much did you spend on ads before getting sales for those two domains?

What was the total ROI?

Its very difficult to figure out that i sold two or 3 or 4 as i had total 8 sales since two months so for two i m sure as i asked buyer rest came through marketplaces so i have no idea either they saw ad on linkedin or twitter or pinterest...
I m not liable to give any kind of proof here i m just sharing that shout out is very important in any business...if you want to do ....if not then its okay i didnt forced or forcing anyone to do it...
If you think this is not good method then i also suggested automation tools to do marketing free but that can bring your id in restrictions
I hope thats the answer of ur questions.
Thanks

No, I think it's a great method, that's why I'm asking. I wish to know how much you spent, on average, to get how much. It would give me an idea to see how profitable this is.

I also wish to know how much you paid for those names. I'm asking because you seem to know what you are doing.

I'm experimenting with ads on a different platform, we will see how that goes.

Holy shit, how is it that cheap??? Your CPM is very low. I'm doing it wrong then. I'm doing some custom, good targeting but it's much more expensive.

And 8 sales in 2 months is great if they were $xxxx. You really know your stuff.

I also think this is a solid method. I have almost 2,000 connections. I have a lot of them in the real estate industry and I do have some real estate domains. So, connect with people that would be interested in any of the domains you are buying. I will be working on doing that. I love LinkedIn and think it can be a great marketing tool. 8 sales in 2 months is just killing it, so great job!

If you have two thousand connections then extract emails and create audience in facebook and run ad that would be crazy cheaper then any platform bcz ur all connections whenever they will go to fb they will see ur ad

i have use in past the sales navigator where i can send 40 inmail message and can unlock 30 profiles.
Have pay 120 usd per month but not best results .
I go to try the your method , i have view that i can choose only 2 geo location and at the end the bid for ads is 0,10 .
This is price for click or for views ?

Riz M...can you share with us a little of your background and who you are?

I like sharing what I know too, and that's why I've developed hundreds of contacts around the world. I've never met a stranger, and I really believe that most of us have way more in common than not. I do have one question for you however, I see where you're from the United Arab Emirates - Dubai. The question has to do with your written English skills? I'm not an English major...far from it, but English obviously isn't your first language, and CEO's that might read your written word would certainly notice. To clarify, I have a good friend who is half Italian and half Mexican, and he speaks seven different languages, but not one of them can we understand very well. This is only meant to be constructive criticism, but how do you overcome it?

On another note, certain domains may be meant for CEO's of publicly traded companies, but others are meant for small to mid size businesses and new businesses. I see on your profile page you just own 300 domains. Do you not go after the smaller end user markets? Thanks,

I do target usually ceo founders and directors by sponsor ads on linkedin text ad and sold two domains there ...spent on ads 75 usd total ....
Sponsored mails are expensive as if they reply or not we still charged by linkedin
In text ad it works like whenever ur targetted ceo will come to linkedin they will see domain on top thats marketing
quite an eye opener

Very interesting thread, thank you for posting :) Interesting information about LinkedIn campaigns, never thought about it.

I have now 9600 connections at Linkedin, and when I post anything there (for free), the post usually gets from 500-5000 views. And I do not need to pay anything. So it is also important to build the network, really connect with people, and have solid and transparent profile there - then people are usually connecting quickly, particularly when you introduce yourself and write them in message why you are connecting them.

But those compaigns are very good info as well, for few dollars it is even bigger audience once can reach it seems.

Something is wrong for sure we can select like continents like latin america north america europe middle east like that and also possibble to target by country..
Maybe you are doing something wrong open support if you cant target all countries or continents

In the normal post you never know who saw ur post most prolly the one who saw they have not any connection with ur domain but in marketing you can target audience which are very close to your domain...
By the way if u have 9600 connections then better extract emails of them and create audience in fb then do target them from this method whenever they will go to fb they will see ur domains at newsfeed and that would be super cheaper either more cheaper then linkedin
