Hi, a few months ago I bought a .com of a company that I think it's solid and successful, running their website on the same domain (.io). The auction has been very competitive and I ended up paying way more than I was initially thinking. This was my mistake, probably because I know the company personally and I thought it was worth it more than really is.
Anyway, that's the short story.
It's a 1 word (made up) 8 letters domain.
I put it on DAN.COM 2/3 months ago but no sales.
Then I submitted it to SH and BB:
SquadHelp priced it 3.995$
BrandBucket 10,995$
I didn't choose yet what to do.
The company is a UK company and on Trademarkia there isn't any notice of a TM on that brand.
Do you think it's a better strategy to reach the company first and offer them a 20% discount on the BB price?
I can reach them via outbound email with my 4 steps emails:
1) Domain X might be interesting for you
2) Benefits of buying a .com domain
3) More Benefits
4) Last call
I would show them the price quotation from BB and tell them that I'm offering the domain directly before listing it on that marketplace as a courtesy. If they don't buy it, it will go on sale on BB.
Please share your thoguhts.
Thanks
