Inside the mind of an end user

Welcome to the latest edition of the Domain Name Wire newsletter.
I was fortunate to have great guests on the DNW Podcast last month. If you'd like to get into the mind of an end user, check out this interview with Carrot founder Trevor Mauch. He paid $600,000 to buy Carrot.com. In the interview, he describes his many attempts to get the domain name and the expensive lessons he learned. A key lesson: always hire an expert.
In other podcasts you can get insight from a domain investor who is new to the market but making a big splash. Learn how to sell better. And much more.
I've published 234 episodes of the podcast and there's a new one every Monday. Next Monday, I interview a domain investor who reveals his P&L for the past two years.
