i presume it stands for your initials then cleaning services

you need something that makes you stand out
a gimmik
like purple rhino poop name but people remember the logo and name-very clever

theres a bloke round here who does maintenance
something like jims maintenance his got a pink van with a 6ft plastic screwdriver on his roof
everyone knows him great big phone number on the side of his van

great bit of advertsing

I want to change name as changed to wfp so its a good reason, to target bigger commercial work.
Having 'pure' in the name gives away that im using pure water system.

If you want to set it up right I would get a logo designer to do you a logo.

The olympic logo is shocking, my 8 year old son could have come up with something better

IMO getting your branding right at the start

Id rather do it all myself mate and save hundreads of pounds  :)
That's cool mate, but the logo you have done looks homemade I'm not being nasty I'm being honest I would start again

JMCS has too many letters unfortunately and is difficult to remember. Miltons Cleaning would be easier.

I appreciate your honesty. It may look homemade, but I still think it looks good. Id rather this for free, than pay a design company £500+ for something else.

£500  :o you can get a logo for about £60 maybe cheaper.

look it it this way and be honest: your logo is this for your benifit (ego) or is it to look a little more professional ? if it is the latter then what you think looks good does not really come into it, it is what the perception is to others thats going to brand you correctly and in a good light.


Positive results will follow  ;)

im personally not a fan of gimmick names.  purefect is a made up word and doesn't really mean anything. i think it would confuse prospective customers because they probably wont know what pure water is until you explain it to them.  maybe even 'Pure and Perfect Window Cleaning' would be better.  obviously its up to you, but i dont think anyone will be like 'oh thats a cool name', they'll be more like 'what the hell does that mean'

When changing name on bank account, did you have to open a new account, or did they just change the name?
