.Com Strategies Podcast where you will learn key insights into valuing, marketing, brokering and selling your domain names.

In today’s episode I talk about how your domain name can be different but not always better.

 

 

POINT #1:  Better is always different, but different is not always better…

  • Chris talks about a podcast he listened to from Garret White. In it Garret talked about the fact that getting something to be better always takes a different approach, but taking a different approach may not always be better.
  • Chris comments on how true this statement is, as he has had to confirm this multiple times with his different marketing strategies over the years.
  • In order to get better and to scale, it is going to involve doing something different then what we are doing today, because what you are doing right now has a cap to how far it will take you. Expanding requires constant change, but only some changes may be good.

POINT #2: Domain Owners…

  • Chris offers companies the ability to make a massive difference to themselves in a good way. The price of a domain can be argued all day long, but the idea that an domain is a valuable change should be a given, not an option on the table.
  • Many companies Chris has reached out to will do something different to their domain name. They may add a “my” or “try” to the beginning to get that .com name, but in the end, is that a good change?
  • That is not going to allow you to own your exact match domain name, its different for sure, but it is not better.

Point #3: Is YOUR different better?

  • Domain investors, are the quality of the domains you are getting now better? Is the process you are using to acquire them better? If not , what are you going to do about it?
  • You can take this podcast a lot of ways, whether you want to apply it to your business, your personal goals, your mental state, whatever you want to improve this can be applied to.
