This final episode  of the Brandable Insider podcast was recorded in July 2021 and features domain investor, Jason Sheppard. 

The past 66 episodes are a solid body of information and knowledge on the art and science of buying and selling brandable domain names for fun and profit and I've accomplished what I set out to do.  For that reason I'm retiring the series and moving on to other domain related endeavors such as lead instructor for the Brandable Bootcamp at webxmedia and my private coaching services at BrandableInsider.com.

My deepest thanks to BrandBucket, Efty and my  legion of listeners for their unwavering support throughout these many months.

See you at the next (in-person) Names Con!!

Best Wishes,

Keith DeBoer

Many domain investors try to catch the first wave by madly hand registering domains like VRkitchen and 3Dfork and GanjaJeans in the hope of getting in early and making mega profits. But what usually happens is these emotionally registered domain names get dropped a few years later because nothing has sold. 

So the second wave in a new tech trend is often a better time to acquire domains when the trend has become clear rather than an early hand reg, which is likely an unmarketable,  junk domain name. 

Your next question should be, how do I know when it’s time for the second wave?

Well that requires a longer explanation which is the focus of today’s episode.
