Episode notes
Six Figure Exit From A Seven Month Build
- Sean sold an affiliate site for well into six figures after building on an expired domain.
- He bought the domain in May, built the site, then sold it in December for around $130,000 after rapid growth.
Niche Down And Target Industry Buyers
- Do niche down when flipping brandable domains and focus outreach on buyers in that vertical.
- Sean owns ~200 cannabis-related brand domains (e.g., SpeedyCanna.com) and targets industry buyers rather than generic auctions.
Flip Fast By Doing Outbound Sales Outreach
- Do active outbound outreach if you want to flip newly registered domains quickly.
- Sean says successful short-term flips often require contacting companies directly, pitching the name and landing pages rather than passive listings.
