Master Over Your Domain

Posted by: James Dalman | Comments (0)

Are you a domain name junkie?  I am!  I get more ideas than I can possibly ever chase and every idea causes me to begin the search for another domain.  I currently own 45 domain names…you might say that I have an addiction.  The problem is not that I have many great ideas and that I find the domains to accompany them – the problem is that I can only focus on a couple of things if I want to complete them and do them well.  Do you ever experience that?  Do you have great ideas that you want to pursue but realize you only have so much time, money, or energy to complete them?

My goal for 2007 is to start letting go and be the “Master Over My Domain”.  For me that means actually letting domain names expire (gulp) and leaving some of the good ideas to someone else.  It might mean something entirely different for you.  I do believe that we can only become effective if we have focus and clarity of our vision and our purpose.  So how will you decide on what ventures /ideas /tasks that you will give your life to?  Please feel free to share your thoughts.

BTW – I will actually post some ideas on choosing domain names and thoughts on Domain Name Providers soon.

Money and budgets are always issues for churches (at least the ones I’ve been involved with).

So I thought I’d throw out some low-cost online printing companies I’ve used or heard about …

Get an Idea Virus Over the Holidays

Posted by: Cory Miller | Comments (0)

One of the best books I’ve read on marketing has been Seth Godin’s Unleashing the IdeaVirus.

Here’s your holiday homework:

  • Download the free ebook
  • Print off the 170-plus pages (or buy the paperback)
  • Read it, highlight it, make notes, be challenged, start dreaming and brainstorming
  • Then come back to CCP after the break and let’s talk
