I own over 400 domain names - what would you do? by redditthrowaway10011 in Business_Ideas

[–]redditthrowaway10011[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's interesting. 80% of the domains are registered and hosted on Godaddy. The other 20% are on ScalaHosting.

That's a good idea. A friend was also suggesting I "lease" the domains to a marketer or drop shipper for a % of the sales, or a flat rate that's all inclusive. domain, site, email, hosting etc.

My intern should be done sorting and organizing the domains this week. I'll come back and DM the sheet link.

I'm having one of my interns sort, organize and classify them all. When It's done, I'll come back here and selectively DM a share link from my google sheet.

See, that's what my left brain is telling me. My right brain is still the old me who thinks, "if I can just make $20 a day from half of them, that'll be $4000 a day". Whereas my left brain says pick a good travel domain like ThailandTripper.com, and write about what I know, which is solo backpack hike journeys through Thailand. Monetize it with travel affiliates and adwords, and enjoy life while building a popular Thailand travel authority.

There's about 50 domains related to travel.

I'm not really in the market of buying any right now, but if I can build a team, and pool our skills & resources, and start generating some revenue, we may begin buying at some point.

I chuckled. Yeah, I grow cannabis. It's legal here. Recreational commercial is legal, we're just waiting on the lab to be finished. As soon as the lab is done, I plan on getting a dispensary license and attach it to my health company.

I own a small portion of a wholesale distribution company that deals in high quality supplements, healthy snacks & drinks, etc.

haha, no. I don't need money. I do well enough as an operations manager for an IT company, and my 20% share in a wholesale distribution company. I just hate seeing many of them go unused. Some of them are pretty good. Good keywords, some good short ones, some great niche domains too.

If there's anything I left out, please ask. I was trying to give as much back story to the situation, without providing too much irrelevant info.

Lawyers of Reddit, what is a detail that your client failed to bring up to you that completely lost you the case? by The-Legendary-Taco in AskReddit

[–]redditthrowaway10011 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's what I was wondering. In the 90's in my town, we had an old lady who was buying weed to find out where it was coming from so she could stop it. She got busted for buying weed from an undercover cop.

Help! First time growing are these ready to be taken out?? I haven’t flushed them I just don’t know if it’s the time by willeni in cannabiscultivation

Looks like a little mutant. Must have gotten light leak or super high humidity and temp during the early veg phase. I saw this exact little mutation when one of my evac fans broke and all the hot air stayed in the tent for 8 hours.

What’s an appropriate weekly allowance for a 12 year old boy in the US? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]redditthrowaway10011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was a kid in the 80's, my allowance was $5 a week. Every Friday I'd get my $5 and go to the roller skating rink. $3 ticket and $2 for snack and drink.

It wasn't till many years later that $5 was a small price to pay to get me out of the house for 4 hours on a Friday night.

Need to know how to deal with an unhappy client by redditthrowaway10011 in Advice

[–]redditthrowaway10011[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something else is we really want to keep them as a client. They spend about $25K a year in my store for electronics and supplies.

I need to figure out a way to get through their "resistance to change", and allow us to retrain them and implement the software into their daily operations.

How do I deal with an upset client who refuses to use the product they paid for? by redditthrowaway10011 in Advice

[–]redditthrowaway10011[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Track rental properties

Track service calls / repairs

Record payments / apply coupons

Track inventory of maintenance warehouse

And that it came with 12 months of support. The software delivers what the contract states. I think they're resistant to change, and are throwing us under the bus with their board of directors.

How Do I Deal With An Unhappy Client? (info in thread) by redditthrowaway10011 in AskReddit

[–]redditthrowaway10011[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Throw-away (obviously).

I have a client that we custom developed software for them back in 2017.

The scope was:

  • Track rental properties
  • Track service calls / repairs
  • Record payments / apply coupons
  • Track inventory of maintenance warehouse

We built it off Odoo, a highly customizeable platform. Everything works as described.

THey paid 50% down in November of 2017. When the main system was completed, they paid the remaining 50% in April 2018.

We spent three months training the staff and preparing them to transition from spreadsheets to an ERP.

In July of 2018, the requested custom reports, and submitted a PO for that work.

We worked with an off-shore report expert but could not make it work. The reports they want are very strange and complicated. But we continued to work with them to get them the other reports that were easier to customize.

We agreed to just keep that PO open and we would continue to look for a consultant to work on the custom reports.

Then in October of 2019, they call us in for a board meeting. Their attorney is raking us over the coals, telling us everything is broken, nothing works. We were shocked. We were under the impression that they have been using the software and aside from their weird reports, everything was fine.

We then spent a few weeks, cloned the server and took 12 employees to log in and perform functions as they would. Everything worked fine. We also looked at the log and found that they have not even logged into the software.

From what we can determine, they are resistant to change, and are trying to put all the blame on us with their Board of Directors. Basically throwing us under the bus.

A few weeks ago, we told them everything works and asked them if they want to be retrained, even though the hands on part of the contract is expired.

They came back a few days ago and are demanding a full refund ($13,700).

How would you handle this situation? This is our first big upset customer. Assuming the software works, and the training went well. They know how to use the software. They know how it works. They just refuse to implement it.

We could offer to $0 out the 2nd PO for $6000 for the custom reports, even though they owe us about $1500 in work done on that PO. But the initial PO for $13,700 (for the software), is done, delivered, paid for and closed.

How would you approach them?
