Morning Folks!!
JointVentures.com got out of the bag before we were ready to announce it. So we have had to release HALF the program. Today I will begin to announce the other half. But first an update on how things are coming along. The contracts will start going out as soon as today. They will not all go out at once as we will just be overwhelmed. So we will be sending out a handful each day until the end of the week and into the weekend.
We now have 134 domains to lease and when we list those domains in the first week of January as those contracts come, it will demonstrate exactly what we are looking for and why.
That brings me to the other half of JointVentures.com. Until now you have only heard about the leasing part of the venture. That part was actually by accident as I have described before. But the foundation of JointVentures.com is a true Joint Venture.
We have all been down the mini-site road. The development road. This road and that road and many domains just end up back at PPC. Our formula is going to change that. Danny Welsh may be able to better explain it than me but here it is in a nutshell.
We all have really great domains that we know have the chance to make big money if we just focused on that one domain and no other. The curse of the domainer is we have to spread our love to thousands of properties and that is just impossible in this lifetime. So what to do?
Remember my truck story with the 10 trucks on the crest of the hill and they are all stuck. By themselves each truck driver is stranded. Just like we are! But if the 10 truck drivers used all their energy to get one truck over the crest then they could repeat that for each of the other 9 remaining trucks.
Enter JointVentures.com. We are going to marry domain names to third parties that have a passion to turn a domain into a BUSINESS and transform their lives!! We are going to tap into professional folks that need an opportunity and then give them that opportunity. I am oversimplifying it and in the days ahead Danny Welsh will make a guest blog post here to explain his vision that is linked to my vision. Hopefully it won't be the longest blog post to ever appear on Ricks Blog. ;-) (But it may)
What we are willing to do is take your under performing domain now on PPC and guarantee you more and then split the 'More' with you 50/50. So you keep making your current revenue and more and you give us time to do what we are trying to do.
Yes, I know you will have many questions and I am not going to go there today. But I want to give you an idea of what we are up to. The direction we are heading and why. I also want to layout a time line.
We opened in December because December does not count. I am on vacation. I don't work in December. This is not work....this is a mission! In January we will open up to the public. We will ramp up until TRAFFIC in May in which JointVentures.com expects to be a sponsor. Possibly a major sponsor.
We have to demonstrate in that time frame that we can do what we say. DEALS do that! It will take all of 2013 just to get thru our first phase. Like any other mission I have of this magnitude, it is a 3 year plan to start that just happens to culminate with the anniversary of my 20 year plan. PERFECTION! All I can say if you don't see what we see now, you will within 3 years.
Disclaimer: Unless the world ends on Friday in which case we need to start over again. ;-)
See you at the Beach!
Have a GREAT Day!

It’s getting more and more interesting. I see what you see. Keep trucking, er joint trucking!!
If you try, you may fail; if you don’t try, you’re guaranteed to fail – Jesse Jackson.
I’m sure many domainers are eager to see something different come 2013, so this idea from Rick is timely. I will be willing to help with any contribution required.
Lord knows that we all have had it with status quo.

I wonder if he was referring to PPC?

So, Rick more grease to your elbow, don’t look back. We’re rooting for JointVentures.com.

Another reason why .COM and owning your own website will always trump building your hope on social media:
READ THIS! Instagram changed rules in mid-stream, and users are disappointed and fleeing. Why are companies building their future on social media alone? It’s crazy.
