“It’s not what you know, it’s who you know.” But here’s a what you need to know: top global corporations need to know who to know! Hear how a top global corporation’s relationship with a domain name broker got them the one domain that had always been out of their reach, the domain that their brand always referred to, ICE.
This multimillion dollar, three letter, one word .COM domain name went on the market for a matter of hours.
ICE, owner of the NYSE, had always dreamed of owning it. Multiple offers were already on the table. A domain broker knew who to call at ICE to ensure they acquired the domain of their dreams.
PLUS, utilizing an experienced domain name broker added value when it came to assuaging concerns with stock holders and the board!
