Hi there!
Are you looking for a business name or slogan? Because you can have both. For example, you can have a business name called "Cam's Brickies & Slabs", "We do concrete", "Bricks & Concrete" and then have a slogan like "you pay it, we lay it" or "solid as a rock".
Make sure your business name has an available website, check out www.webcity.com.au and test the names you like and see if they are available (make sure you do a .com.au so the Australian search engines pick it up).
Also with your logo, keep it simple and no more than 3 colours.
If you need free tips, or any help with marketing or design check out www.northridgecreations.com.au.
All the best! |

not sure on the name, but assure your profit by knowing your cost of doing business. You need to know how much it costs to put your key in the trucks ignition before you head out...
truck, insurance, gas, wages, tax's, state tax's, workers compensation, power, lights, tools, tool replacement, advertising, business cards, accountant, phone, cell phone, gloves, hand tools, oil changes, new equipment, vacation-have too figure that in, insurance, life-insurance, medical, training-take time to go too yearly conventions, ... make a long list, every one of these get something out of every hour you work and at the end of the day... you need to make a profit, regardless of the name of the business, if you are the cheapest.... you loose... know what it cost's every hour for you to be out there doing your thing. What is your productive hours? Take an 8 hour day, 1 or 2 hours, lunch, gas, phone calls, set up, take down, waiting on trucks, breaks, bidding, job walk down.. so you may be gone 9 hours a day, but only produce 6 hours....... the national average is like 4 to 6 hours of actuall production during a day.... so, if you have too make $300 a day too pay your over head, and only produce 5 hours, you need to be right at $60 an hour and that is just too break even.... know your cost's of operation and set it accordingly... , not on what your competion charges.. you will be surprised at how much it costs to keep an operation profitable and not making a profit should be criminal because all your doing is working yourself too death....for nothing.
I know this isn't what you were after.. so forgive my rant on this topic....
good luck |
