have you tried approaching these guys with the domain?

Trademark?

Sales force refers to a team of sales people within a company, TM'ing a generic term does not mean one has the rights to every domain. If the term was artificial such as ebay of Amazon then of course it would be a blatant infringement. In this case it is not, i would only be infringing if i offered it to the TM holder or used it to advertise products or services simular to the TM owner.

Sales Force

noun
the division of a business that is responsible for selling products or services [syn: sales department]

Usually I would agree. I'd just stay away because of the ipo here http://www.ipo.gov.uk/ohim?ohimnum=E8433021

ohhh seriously your point being?

http://www.ipo.gov.uk/ohim?ohimnum=E4549044

does that mean you cannot register laptop.co.uk, you recently advertises best netbooks for sale, well guess what that also has a tm on it, even voucher codes has a TM on it.there is a tm for almost every generic term but that does not give them the rights.

If you want to jump in on a sales thread at least do it with something useful

Amazon was a great word they come up with. Wonder how they thought of that.

I'd never heard of the sales force company before this thread. But the domain would make a nice sounding recruitment company.

The op hasn't quoted exacts or anything so no intent shown I think.
