Your Name Says it All!
(And this applies to projects and products, too, not just business names.)
Envy is a terrible emotion, but I am experiencing envy. There’s a company that has created a name that communicates their mission and is irresistible.
It’s a company that provides expensive, but sought after services.
Their four word name says it all and then some.
I wish I had thought of a business name on par with this one.
The business?
Every day, a school bus full of lucky dogs roars past my house. I look at my dogs and wonder if they know what they are missing.
Super Fun Happy Dog is a dog day care and boarding service. They pick up Seattlite Pups and take them to a multi acre property south of the city where they play, run, and socialize.
I love the name: Super Fun Happy Dog. You don’t need to ask a thing. The name speaks volumes and says that if you have the means to spoil your dog, this is where you want to send him or her. Their name is plastered on the side of the bus (actually they have several vehicles).
Here is a news story that the local NBC affiliate did a while back.
Such a great name!
What was I thinking.....
Haneberg Management?
High Impact Middle Management?
Middle management anything?
Yuck. Wake me up when I’m done.
My work is great. I think my services and content are excellent. But the names? Not so great.
There are lots of dog day care and boarding businesses, but only one called Super Fun Happy Dog. Think about your business. Is your name amazing?
And if you have any ideas for me, I am all ears.....

How about "Super Fun Happy Management?" Just teasing. What about "Crafty Management" or "Managing is an Art," a bit of a take-off on Max Depree's Leadership is an Art. Hope you find a name that works for you. Make it a great day - Phil

Off the top of my head?
"Meet Me in the Middle (Management)"
-- kinda sounds personal, inviting, cooperative --
Thanks for giving me something to think about on the train! haha
Have a great day!
