Title: Business Name
Post by: Clarity Cleaning Solutions on July 09, 2008, 07:35:45 pm: I am trying to think of a new business name. Have thought of a couple, i.e. Squeaky Clean, etc, but I am after something a bit more professional sounding!

Any ideas? How did you come up with the name of your company??

Cheers

leighton keynes cleaning, maybe Milton Buzzard cleaning, people will ask questions.

Buzzard window cleaning could be good for marketing.

Post by: Jon-scwindows on July 09, 2008, 08:58:27 pm: some people incorperate their last name, or area seeing as even if you move the work will still be in that area and a ready set business for if you sell it. Allot of these names sound familiar or already used. Abbreviate if possible, because shorter names are quicker to right cheques out too, eg scwcs is mine for two areas and Window Cleaning Services.
It takes a while to think of something professional.

My fear of using my initials is someone clever hoodie coming along and graffiting my van by adding a 'K' on the end it!

Andy
Same reason as to why I just use my surname + the word "services". It allows me to change things later on if I wish to. Bearing in mind that when I first registered as self-employed back in 91, I was doing a little window cleaning, some freelance driving, and some merchandising for an advertising company. Although the stuff other than W/C has fallen by the wayside, I still am registered like that in case I ever want to change direction.
