Rosener's expertise in the domain name field is exemplified by his creation of the 'Rosener Equation,' a formula for objectively valuing domain names, which has been widely adopted in the industry. Before venturing into domain names, Rosener's career spanned a wide variety of fields. He co-founded a database software company while in college, providing custom database solutions to blue-collar businesses on eastern Long Island, and later was recruited into the frozen seafood commodities business. He excelled as a fishmonger, becoming a VP of sales for a leading scallop importer in his early 20s, for nearly a decade, before moving on to pursue his passion for domain names. Rosener's personal life is equally dynamic. After marrying his German wife, whom he met while living abroad in Australia, they relocated to Panama. They spent a decade there, co-founding and building MediaOptions and starting a family before moving to Lisbon, Portugal, where they have lived since.
