Changing company name
« on: April 13, 2011, 02:30:12 pm »
Hi All,

Sometime within the next couple of months I'm going to be changing my company name from "Southern Cleaning Services" to "Something Window Cleaning"...

I have a couple of ideas on new names already. I just need to make the final decision so that I can rebrand.

For those of you who have gone through the same process... How did you inform your customers? i.e. A letter, or you just told them?

Did it cause you any problems?

Thanks,
Andy

regards domestic customers - a high % cant remember the window cleaners company name, just know his/name ....

more modern companies in any trade us a one word name or something catchy ...

i saw a builder using a meerkat as his logo but was called by his name builders eg joe bloggs builders.

i bet alot of customers wont rememmber his company name but will remember his meerkat on van, flyers ...

one chap on here was called rubber duck cleaning - i liked that, easy to remember and a good simple logo of a rubber duck.

I'm trying to get away from gutter cleaning etc... and just focus on Window Cleaning, plus I want a better brand name than Southern Cleaning Services for when I promote more in the summer.
