Selling Fine Fools

A couple of days ago I talked about letting things die and I wrote that entry knowing that I would be selling the Fine Fools Network. It’s not a hard thing to do now, but it’s probably something that should have been done a long time ago, but it was hard to let something die that I knew I could make stronger. Of all the projects that I have done in the past I learned the most from this one and I have no regrets.

It caused me a lot of shit that’s for sure, but that only made me stronger and helped me to understand where 100% of my focus needs to be. One day I’m sure I will talk about the lessons that I learned so hopefully many of you don’t make the same mistakes as me, but for now if you are interested go check out the auction if buying sites is your kind of thing.

The server move is complete so everyone should be able to see this entry and carry on ignoring me as usual.

  3. Only $20k? You could turn DIC into a 5 figure earner each month with just a little bit of work…. I remember that for a few months you had 40,000 pageviews per day on that site without even breaking a sweat. Damn haven’t I seen your domains go for more than that? ;)

  5. Gosh, it seems like so long ago. I think we all learned a lot. I miss Fine Fools. I miss you Scrivs and Mike a lot.
    Mike’s right; it wouldn’t take much to turn them into something special . . . Good Luck with the sale. I’m with you in spirit!
