DomainSherpa Review is the flagship show on the DomainSherpa Network where we get into the minds of successful domain name investors – who we call Sherpas – and talk about the value of domain names. By listening to the Sherpas, we expand our knowledge and understanding so that we can become more successful domain investors ourselves.
In this episode:
- The Sherpas play The Domain Game (starting at the 9:24 mark) where they guess what certain domains were bought and sold for by the Sherpas and discuss the reasons behind their evaluations. Today’s domains are PawnShop.org, OnchainEnergy.com, and Creative.agency. Click each domain to see its Appraise.net valuation.
- They review a list of domains about to come up for auction on NameJet.com, including Elves.com, FalconEnergy.com, IslandPoker.com, and VirtualOffice.org.
- The Sherpas talk about pawn shops and the idea of digital pawn shops and the related story of XYZ.com.
- They get into a big discussion about scaling and domain tiers, introducing the McMahon Tier System (MTS) and how to scale both within tiers and across tiers.
- The Sherpas also talk about cash flow, systems, and networks – all critical aspects in the process of scaling up.
- They also talk about balance of patience and maximizing value with selling domains, creating liquidity, and how all of that helps find success and longevity in domain investing.
- Big news — Appraise.net is now a DomainSherpa sponsor! Sign up now with this link and get your first month for just $1.
- Also, DomainSherpa is now integrating with Skiv.com – formerly Muse.ai – for episode transcripts and an AI-driven video player to easily look for topics, words, phrases, etc., and jump to the points in the video where they occur. Let us know your feedback!
- Plus, all DomainSherpa podcasts are now up on our YouTube channel at DS.tv, and much more!
