Here are some things you need to religiously follow, not:
1. Give them half truths : Tell people .COM is good for "type-ins", without telling them the other half of the story. Never, ever, define what "type-ins" really mean. Just say Google.com, for example, has millions of type-ins a day.
2. Magnify with a tainted glass lens : Always remind people that Business.com sold for $7m, but never, ever, say it was just worthless stocks they were referring to. If they are still unconvinced, tell them Men.com recently sold for $1.3m and show them the news articles. However, don't show them this example if your buyer is a prude or has strong religious inclinations.
3. Oversimply the situation (morons love it) : Show them evidence that eBay.com and Google.com are very profitable companies using a .COM, and they can too. Never, ever, bring up the fact that the Internet is a cut-throat environment and that its going to take much much more than just a .COM and wishful thinking. Always wish your buyer Good Luck (you are going to need it)!
