Outreach is brokering. Buy domains, find buyers. One in the same.

Inbound sales do typically sell for more than doing outbound, however if I just sat on a domain for 3 years for an $8k sale versus owning it for a week and converting a $4500 sale, it just makes sense.

This notion of 'time lost' or 'time spent' just means you need to make a more efficient system. It takes me 1 - 2 hours to sort through ALL drops and auctions every day. The rest of the day is outreach and qualifying leads. Plenty of time to do it all :)

Good luck.
