Warriors,
About 8 years ago I was in the online pharmacy market and have just been getting residuals over the last 6 years from the initial customer base that I built. It has pretty much fizzled out and after getting a letter from the USFDA and the increasing difficulty of operating online pharmacies I am going to sell the majority of my sites.

The names are really pretty good, for example, eastsidepharmacy.com

What I want to do is approach 5 or 6 brick and mortar pharmacies. My domain being a dotcom and the direct match would be something I would want to own if I had a business named Eastside Pharmacy.

I would appreciate some feedback as far as approach and the price to ask for. Should I call or email?

ONE MORE QUESTION... How many of you gotten out of OP or just decided to never get into it? I am toying with hitting some last sales to take out some nice checks and then sell all.

Thanks for the feedback.

    I started with just plain basic ads back before 2000 then I moved to gambling and then to diet and pharmacy in the early 2,000's. Man the government here in the U.S. and adsense pretty much dried me up quick.

    I made a killing in pharmacy back when, I have since sold all 100 sites. I sold some to pharmacies, but most to pharmaceutical companies if that helps you out.

      Just one small suggestion here . . .

      Do a Google exact match search for each of the domains you own and make contact with the top ten or twenty sites in the search results telling them how you found them and if they would like to make you an offer on the exact match domain. If you like their offer, accept it or counter back. If you don't like the offer, continue your search.

    Google/Yahoo/Bing Search "Eastide Pharmacy"

    See who's targeting the keywords and who's paying for ads in the keywords (already spending money, why not see if they would buy a domain )

    If you have traffic and backlinks to some of those, don't just kill the sites. Show the stats and explain how the domains will benefit them because of age and so on, not just exact match.
