Ebony White - Do you have a vid on choosing a name for your massage business? i have been struggling with this since i knew i was going to enroll. i have time yet before i graduate, but just need direction. thanks for your time!!!
Gloria Coppola - Ebony...I used to teach a biz class for massage students and we did address this. Write down a bunch of words that you like pertaining to the massage field/business. Have other people/classmates write some down too. Then through process of elimination of what you really like and don't like. See what you are left with...it's fun to do. Usually a combination of words comes up and then you can put it together to see if you like it. Run the name(s) by several people and see what their reaction is too. Think about who you are, what you want to put out there and start playing with the words.
Roger Kittles - Your name should also ring true to your type and style of Massage. do you want to convey an image of soothing touch, or something sports related, agressive, or therapeutic. your business name needs to define your style
Karley Louise Otter - Thanks for this, i am also struggling, just qualified as an holistic therapist. I am also going through names, i will definately try that idea gloria, thankyou so much :o) xxx
Laura Allen - I find people sometimes choose names that have some personal meaning for them, but it doesn't convey what they do. For instance, someone who does pregnancy massage choosing the name "MommyCare." Or "Namaste." Those are just examples. If you do something like that, be SURE to have "Massage and Bodywork" as part of the name. People should get a clear picture of what services you're providing.
Jackie Keenan Kincaid - Your business card like your appearance is the potential clients first impression. REMEMBER :" YOU NEVER GET A SECOND CHANCE TO MAKE A FIRST IMPRESSION." Choose wisely, be professional and above all get help from a professional if you truly do not know what to call your business or what to put on your card. Many people will see your business card long before they ever meet you.
Allen Rubin - Agree, Laura. I used to use my business name followed by "Integrated Therapeutics", only to eventually realize that no one really knew what that meant. I've since changed it to simply reflect what it is I do...."Advanced Massage & Stretch Therapy"
