Default Need Advice from the Community

Everyone,

I'm working on starting a new painting business in the Raleigh Durham Metro Area. It's referred to as the Triangle by many people, in case you weren't familiar with that term.

I have a few names I'm considering for my business and I wanted YOUR advice! Which of these names do you think would be the best?

Pick-A-Pro Painting
Above and Beyond Painting
Triangle's Choice Painting
Triangle Paint Contractors
Robert's Superior Painting

You can pick more than one if you want!

Thanks so much in advance for all the help everybody!

Reference the tidiness of your job, your professionalism and the area with something like

"Straight Edge Painting".

Maybe too obscure though.

gotta say depends on your business model. Probably should be reflected in the name, more than just painting. You are targeting a consumer with a service company, so you want to attract people that can get an idea of what to expect from the name, so less complainers [You must be logged in to view images.

Here is how you can define your business model [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

*Price
*Quality
*Speed
-Pick any two.

So like the super painting, sounds like price + speed vaguely. A guy that owns a bunch of apartments would probably hit you up, cant see it from his house. A name with pro in it, maybe quality and speed, residential home owners and such. Name with contractors in it, price and quality in new construction or something.

I'd probably leave the location name out, be flexible and pull accounts in from surrounding areas. Personal names maybe out too, unless you are servicing mainly retirement mobile parks or something .. or subcontracting then it doesn't matter.

Sounds like an amateur and/or a person who hired his unemployed cousin as a marketing consultant. Don't go with that one.

If forced to make a choice I'd go with one of these. Most professional sounding.
