NamesCon
Global 2023 Agenda Firming Up for Big Show in
Austin Next Month
|
|
With
barely 7 weeks to go before domain
industry pros from around the world reconvene for
the annual NamesCon
Global conference, a powerful agenda
for the big event in Austin is quickly
filling up. As we told you last month, Wikipedia
Founder Jimmy Wales will be headlining a
roster of all-star industry speakers for
NamesCon's run at the downtown Omni Hotel
that starts May 31 and runs through June
3 (most veteran show goers come
in a day early for what is always a busy
evening of pre-show corporate parties at various
locales around the Lone Star State's capital
city). |
|
|
The latest
agenda additions includes a can't miss session
on the power of branding featuring Louis
Pickthall, the Co-Founder and Vice President at
BrandForce.com.
High-end buyers have particular expectations that you have to understand and be able to meet.
When domain brokers and investors recognize the power of a
given brand and properly convey that
to the buyer, asset sales can be made at their
full true value. Louis used that
concept to surpass $60 million in
sales last year, making him one of the
world's top brokers in 2022.
In his session,
titled How to Give Domain Buyers What They Really
Want, Pickthall will share how he did it, what it’s like to sell from one of the most exclusive and valuable portfolios in the
world and how his experience can help you reach your own sales
goals.
In another
newly added session, power from a different
perspective will be explored when veteran
broker Amanda Waltz sits down with
industry pioneer Mike Mann to discuss
the power of letting go. |

Amanda
Waltz (Waltz
Digital) will interview pensive
domain investor Mike Mann
(Founder & CEO of DomainMarket.com)
at NamesCon Global 2023 in Austin.
Over
the past 25 years Mike Mann has made tens of millions of
dollars - with the goal of giving it
away. In addition to being a globally-recognized
domain investing expert and entrepreneur, Mike
is the author of the book Make Millions and Make
Change. Mike co-founded and
sold BuyDomains.com, founded Phone.com,
SEO.com and many others including the nonprofit
MakeChange.com. Amanda
Waltz, who is one of the most highly regarded
domain brokers in the industry, will talk with
Mike about balancing high-end and mid-priced domains in
a portfolio, and how to know what to throw away and
what to keep.
Check
out the NamesCon
Global website for many more details on the upcoming show that, for the
first time, will run concurrently at the Omni
Hotel with the Cloudfest
USA conference with one ticket
getting you into all sessions at both
events. Another thing to keep in mind - tickets
are currently $449 (+ ticketing fee) but only
through the rest of April. If not purchased in
advance it will cost $1,049 at the door to attend. |
