@deathboy Not from the get go, but it's the list of things to do. I would pay that much once and if some of the business metrics are met.
I mean I always start everything as lean as possible and using .co or .biz is ok for now. But if sales are growing as planned and we're all feeling like we can afford it I'll need the .com to avoid confusion/marketing problems.
Either we include it in our first round financing or we spend from our revenue if that's the best place to put our cash.
I personally don't care, but my non-techie partners seem gung ho on it... so I'm doing my due diligence before I explain to them that it's really not that important. Best way to do that IMO is by letting them know "this costs x and brings in y" can we get better ROI elsewhere with that money.
- huh. well i'm sure the price will go up with your success. Be interesting if they sell it on a flat cost plus percentage of future profits or somethingdeathboy
- plus i always figure if you are a success you might not need a .com. IE videocopilot, but i guess could also be industry specific for fraud problemsdeathboy
- it's not just about the domain - if another company or companies trading with that name then choose another name.fadein11
- True, price will go up with success. I'll keep that in mind, try to look smaller than we are =)zarkonite
