About Nima

"Helping people is my passion, business is my vehicle."- Nima

Nima Jacob Nojoumi has always had a knack for the rush of entrepreneurship. His first venture actually started at the ripe age of seven years old in his hometown of Thousand Oaks, CA, serving the city’s finest hand-squeezed lemonade from the lemon tree that grew in his backyard. You wouldn’t think, but even at such a young age, Nima understood the principles of creating a stellar product and all the collateral factors that come with profit including keeping costs low, customer service, quality control, basic business principles and saving.

Even throughout high school Nima was always involved with bartering, trading up and even reselling electronic goods to make a profit to pay for his school’s tater tots. It was during this time that he discovered the art of negotiation and how to use positioning for persuasive conversations.

After high school he moved to Colorado to learn what business was really all about via the powers above, AKA his pops. For three years Nima worked his way through the restaurant industry from small start-up restaurants to large franchises, and in the process even opened his own restaurant and helped manage a night club at just 20 years old (by the way, drinking at a club and running one are completely two separate things). His time spent in Colorado provided him with the most valuable lesson he’s learned to date: “You have to be passionate about your business.”

Nima returned to Southern California to pursue a degree in business. While attending college full time he managed a cell phone store in Thousand Oaks and the owner quickly grew a liking for him and took Nima under his wing, and helped shape him into a results-driven salesperson. Nima quickly learned the fundamentals of networking, account management, the value of tracking clientele, up selling, cross-selling, and most importantly listening to client needs prior to providing a solution. The greatest lesson he took from this experience was the importance of networking.

Almost two years into the cell phone business Nima caught wind of the domain industry and an opportunity that would change his life forever. Through a close family friend he was referred to a leading tech companies website, and after doing thorough research and listening to his intuition he quickly realized that this is a company that’s on the rise and is dominant in its niche. Nima submitted his application on a Wednesday, packed his jeep and moved to Scottsdale, AZ on Saturday, interviewed on Monday and was hired by Thursday – within a matter of a week, his life’s course shifted in a completely different direction. The next five years were dedicated to the domain industry, SEO, real estate investments and countless hours of research and implementation. In this time Nima learned some very interesting crafts including domain portfolio management, premium domain acquisitions & brokering, domain development strategies, domain evaluation, online marketing, search engine optimization & online branding.

To give you an example of his drive for the craft, Nima has been promoted six times in his tenure with one of the largest tech companies in the world and has continued to be amongst the top 1% of producers for the company grossing over $3 million a year in revenue.

In late 2009 Nima Founded Venture Media, LLC as his Domain and Real Estate Holdings Company. Since then he has worked vigorously and has acquired a handful of premium domain names and five real estate investment properties both commercial and residential. Four of his premium domains are now developed and are being monetized for a profit.

Now for his latest venture but certainly not the last, Nima started this blog in an effort to share the knowledge he’s learned over the years. If you have any questions, suggestions or would like some advice, would be more than happy to hear from you. Just reach out via the online contact form here.

Nima currently resides in Tempe, AZ with his best friends from childhood, his dog Doja and is an avid hiker, traveler and music enthusiast.
