Jason asked:
I own several domain names and I know alot of people park their domain and try to collect ad revenue off of it. There are a couple of domains I own that I know are worth alot because of the rights to the books and a movie company buying the rights to the film series has taken place. Tunnels is a book series that is due out in January 2008 in the US and already released in the UK. It is being billed as the next Harry Potter, I own the domains tunnelsbook.com and tunnelsmovie.com. How can I market them to sell them to someone who wants to develop them to cash in?

Send a professionally written letter introducing yourself as a domain broker, or whatever you want to call yourself. Follow this up about a week later with a simple telephone call and try to schedule a meeting.
Don’t allude to your specific domain name until the actual face-to-face.
You have to sell yourself and sell the name. 80 percent of successful sales are based on the fact that the buyer took a liking to the seller, not the actual product or service.
Good luck. If your price is too high, they will shoot you down. Let them make a preliminary offer.
