When I first entered this business a few years ago I felt like so many people in this industry lacked basic business knowledge. Many were fantastic flippers or domain buyers but really had no idea of how to build a business around them. Always looking for things that were quick. And we all know building a business is anything but. But I see people Morgan Linton of Fashion Metric and Merlin Kaufmann prove me wrong. Merlin formed Soothe, his massage app and business that delivers in home massage. It is a fantastic business and he now has tens of millions of dollars in investment and financing. I also think of all the businesses that serve the domain investor. So when I get down to it, there are quite a few good business people in this industry. Here are today’s names.

Have a name at auction and need more exposure? Send me an email. I Charge $10 per name per day. We may be able to help. If you have an auction you want to promote, email us for details.*All names chosen by me, Shane . (ie you click through and purchase a name you like) or an occasional paid listing. Everything I say is based on my own research or is opinion. Do your own due diligence. That means look it up yourself if you don’t think the stats or my opinion is correct. I hand choose my names but I am paid to make this list by both the auction houses, individuals that are auctioning names, and Godaddy affiliate links. Keep that in mind and only buy names that YOU think are good
Felt the same way
And still do
How much money are those businesses profiting right now?
Just because you can raise money doesn’t mean you’ve built a viable, long term business that turns profits
Maybe the examples you gave are profitable and already returning capital to investors. Probably not though.
Just my opinion no disrespect to domainers/flippers
Just goes to show that sex sells, Soothe is basically nothing more than a brand name for door to door prostitution. Hope his mother is proud.
And sorry to say it because I like the guy but Morgan has wasted a lot of opportunities with such a great idea and big names behind him, and he will be left for dust soon by other startups.
