NamesCon 2019 Recap

1.Make and keep extensive notes about each domain name you acquire, including your anticipated sales price. Review these documents periodically - This came from Domain Investing 101/201 by @Michael Cyger.

2.Human to human is the most important type of interaction. Think about your personal brand and how you can strengthen personal interactions - One of numerous topics in Haseeb Tariq session.

3.I plan to do a better job of logging all data for each domain name that I have for sale, including dates the name was placed on different marketplaces, where parked, price changes, queries, traffic, etc. - The head of Radix Bhavin Turakhia gave a superb presentation on how they use data and the importance of being quantitative and evidence based.

4.Starting with the domains I consider my most popular and valuable, I plan to implement catch-all email - Unlike some of the others, this is one I have never done before. The idea came from the Expert Round Table hosted by Braden Pollock.

5.I already use appraisals fairly extensively, but based on the GoDaddy / Afternic presentation I plan to present the data as part of a prospectus for each domain name - Based on Paul Nick's Trends keynote.

6.In due time I plan to develop a multiple year model for my domain investing along the lines of the one Paul Nicks presented at NamesCon.

7.I want to think more deeply on how I can plant that first seed for an organization that might be interested in one of my domain names, and what my personal brand is and how I can communicate that better - came from @Kate Buckley keynote on story telling)

8.I don't think it is reasonable to do this for all of my domain names , but for a minority I plan to more fully research how they might be used by end users, and try to express that message through a short story that I hope to get in front of prospective end users - came from @Kate Buckley keynote on story telling.

9.I plan to develop documents for domain names in a certain niche that will help end users see how others have employed domain names to move their organizations forward - indirectly related to the session where the end users who paid $500,000 for Home.loans and Vacation.rentals described their experiences.
