Buying existing domains and real sales techniques

January 29th, 2007

Many of you will know that i have a background in professional sales for 15 years or so but its very rare that you come across traditional sales techniques used online. I made an enquiry with a company over a domain I would like to buy and they came back with the usual pointless high figure.

Then today I have had 3 phonecalls from their sales staff – proper telesales calls – open questions – closing techniques anything they could do to move me through the sales process or to try to close on related products.

None of us do that as we should in my opinion.

    Interesting

    Before I got into SEO I worked for a bit at a leading charity fundraising firm – they where very big on call mangement and controling the call.

    Maybe I ought to get my notes out and use some of the techniques at the next trade show I go to.

About SEOidiot

Hi my name is Paul Madden and I am a UK SEO based in Lancashire, for years I have been cursed by the nickname SEOidiot which started life as a form of abuse from someone but you need to decide for yourself how accurate the term is.

Quotes about me

"Paul is one of those few people in the online marketing business that not only understands the intimate details of SEO but intuitively knows and implements how to deliver it. Paul is a very humble guy and goes by the moniker of SEO Idiot, anyone who takes that literally had better watch out as Paul is as much an idiot in SEO as most others in the industry are gurus! An amazing guy, a knowledgeable business man and "a doer". Paul is not only an asset in every project we work together on, but I am honoured to say has become a true friend."
