Hey, if you're seriously thinking of selling a site, first just make sure you're asking the right amount of money or that the site is indeed ready for sale... and for this, first do a search on http://domof.com to get an estimated value for the domain, so you'll have an idea of what to expect for it.

In my humble opinion good sales literature basically needs to tell a prospect, "Hey, we are legit...see...we have this brochure/media kit/website." That’s why good sales people are always in demand and get paid well, because they can take it from there by creating value in the product or service and bring in the business.
Oh, and thank god brochures/media kits/websites don't automatically bring in sales, because I would be out of a job!

So is it the tool that makes the man---or the man knowing how to use the tool?
Obviously a good website reinforces any good salesman---but I agree---websites, and literature don’t perform---people do.
If it were that easy I doubt the dotcom bust in the early 90’s would have ever happened
