Choosing A Name For Your Home Based Business

By Alison Heath


In a new business, deciding what it's name would be is one of the top priorities. How to name it? What catchy title is most likely to attract the attention of customers? Sometimes it is better to take your time in selecting a name because thinking too hard may dull the mind. Often times, the most obvious thing is that which we overlook because we are too busy searching for the perfect answer.

A proven way of making a choice would be to write down a brief description of the nature of your home based business. Are you in the product retail business? Are you selling a product or providing a service? Next, think of ways to make the title unique and interesting. You can name the company after you if you are the only proprietor of your home based business. For example, if Jane is selling pet bed designs and other products, perhaps her business could be named "Jane's Pampered Pets." Regardless of the choice, the business name should be about the product or service offered. A business name will draw more attention if it makes people smile so, if possible, try to add a little humor to the title. An intriguing name will stir up people's interest and that will be a good first step in making them want to know more about your business.

Before making a final decision on a name for your home based business, make sure that you check with your state's business office to confirm that your title is unique. It would be bad business if you start with legal problems, so don't take the chance and make the necessary verification of your business name. Furthermore, your business is supposed to be different from others. It is all about you and the service or product that you provide, so you would want to give it a name that is equally unique.

When all is said and done, be sure that you select a name for your home based business that you will enjoy displaying on business cards and promoting both locally and nationally. The name of your business is the first thing that people will notice.

People will have to know your business name before they can surf you in the web or contact you by telephone or put in an order. Humor your customers and it will be easier to do business with them.
