Of course two similar names can be of mutual benifit even in the same business. On Monday we had a message on our answer phone asking about window cleaning in an area that would be out of our way for just one clean. I have a number of phone numbers of other window cleaners and I passed the ladies details on to someone nearer.

A few weeks ago I had a phone call from another window cleaner giving details of a customer in a street that we already do.

Communicate and co operate. This name thing sounds like it's there to stay so use it to your advantage. Right or wrong is sounds like it's there to stay.

Don't trawl the streets.............. I would not do that - I go out to get new business. Don't go with your 3 young daughter either. That is not a good image. Be inventive and be positive.

As for idea's. How about you change your change your name to 'SqueakyClean4us' and tell all of your customers you are changing with the times etc, and trade of his advertising?

I would.

Even better would be 'SqueakyClean4You' as Justin's is 'SqeakyClean4u'.

Yup. That's what I'd do.  ;D

You guys are all crazy!

 When I got divorced we had the name Lonestar Window Cleaning. I wanted Lonestar and so did he. So I named mine Lonestar Services. 8)

He eventually became a real estate agent and I have grown in my window cleaning business, as well as a janitorial and a housecleaning service. I bought all of his contracts. ;D

The best thing is to communicate about this; if it is not important; don't worry about it! There are enough contracts to go around! :o

One other thing that I forgot to mention and is real important is the registration of a business name. :P

Over here you have to register your business's name at the county courthouse. It is easy to do and costs two dollars and fifty cents to do.
The reason we do this is because of duplicant names and so on. It is only for this state, but that is the most important. :)

Then, once registered, no one can take that exact name. 8)

I wouldn't waste a bunch of energy on this issue. There are a lot of other things that are really worth getting upset over; like losing a child. :'( I know, and beleive me, a name mixup is very little in the whole scheme of things.

Be thankful for what you have and work your buns off for your goals :o

That is what really matters. ;D

How about having a squeaky conglomerate?
Get in touch with a squeak near you
Or something similar.
It could go big time, think about it! We have companys that have joined together and called themselves the smart cleaning group (don't worry Andy).

They squeak him here, they squeak him there.......


Look what I found! Different squeaky from a different era methinks Ross!  ;D

And just to sweeten things there is an old texas girl post too!

What the ....... a thread from 2005  ???

I just had one posting of a page stored on an old hard drive. How the hell did you manage to find the entire thread and then post it all as a new topic?

This is related to something I posted as a bit of fun on the 'off topic' section of the forum.

http://www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/index.php?topic=148381.0

Blimey.....  :o

Not only that, it's not the 'squeaky' on here now, it was another 'squeaky' from a by gone time.

......................

Texas Girl though... from the US of A  ..... She was something else and I do remember seeing her calender......... drool. I wonder where she is now and what she is doing and if she ever really got over the death of her son?
