$323 Made In My Boxer Shorts Before Breakfast!

28 replies
I live in Australia and we are layed back bunch. Infact I am writing this in my boxer shorts and it is 12:34pm ....told ya we are lazy.

Anyway yesterday I received an email from a friend son and he was saying someone wants to give me $323. I will explain....I saw this strategy somewhere and thought I would give it a try and have some fun. Took a break from my product creation stuff.


This is how I set it up.

1) Looked for cool or bizarre names of businesses. Found a unique one.

2) Checked if it had a domain name....it didnt .

3) I checked to see if I could even register two names and make sure one has their name and a benefit. Like "JoesInstantShoeRepairs.com" (please note this is just an example) or something like that. That is what I did. Be a little creative here.

4) then I emailed them as I found their email in the white pages. sometimes these emails are out of date or expired but I gave it a shot anyway.

5) I also realised my friends son was friends with the business owner and see if he could contact him.

It was funny, the guy contacted me...and i just made up a figure $323 for the two domains. He agreed. Then even better he asked if i knew anyone that knew how to design websites. Hello Warrior forum!!!

Was a fun day.

Just have to be a little bit of a ingenuitive marketer at times. Sometimes the opportunities are right infront of eyes and yet....WE JUST DONT SEE IT.

Good luck and hope this helps.

Celente.

    I hope you can do this over and over again. Maybe you can target lawyers, doctors, etc. who will be willing to pay even more!

    Celente,

    Can you just explain above bit more, i.e. what do you mean by "cool or bizarre name"?

    Thanks

    Celente,

    After a post like that mate, you obviously need
    to provide some proof to those guys and gals that
    dont believe you.

    So, please post some credible proof of you in
    your boxer shorts. LOL

    Take Care,

    Michael (Just had to take it there) Silvester

    I love reading stories like this.

    You took a chance, took a shot and you hit the target.

    The amazing thing is you had no idea that it would work or pay-off.

    Good on you, mate!

    thanks for a true success story!

    I like your strategy. I think a lot of money can be made with this method. However, there is no guarantee that the person is going to want the domains. Therefore, you could lose money by registering domains for no reason. You should have sold this method as a WSO and made some money off of it.

      John, there is risk in doing business, no matter what you do. Even if you release a WSO, it could sell poorly and receive bad reviews. This is why people with little to no risk tolerance shouldn't be in business at all.

      This is often overlooked and/or dismissed by newbies, but it could make you some quick and substantial money if you really commit to marketing the domains (acquiring them is the easy part, it's the marketing that many people tend not to do enough of).

      Trust me, I've seen some stranger things come out of boxer shorts, but we can discuss that over that who I'd have a beer with thread.
