HOW TO CHOOSE A COMPANY NAME:

When choosing a name for your business, keep it short, easy to spell, and memorable. Ensure it’s something you’re proud to say and sets you apart from others. For example, a name like “Jose Landscaping” is personal and suggests you’ll handle the work yourself, which is great if you plan to stay hands-on. However, it may limit growth if you want to expand beyond your personal efforts.

Avoid geographical names like “Parma Heights Landscaping” unless you plan to stay local forever. Names tied to a specific area, such as Parma Heights or Lakewood, can feel restrictive if you later operate in places like Cleveland or Atlanta. Instead, consider broader names like “Hoang’s Unlimited” or “Landscaping Unlimited” to allow flexibility for growth.

Choose a name that means something to you and reflects your business’s unique qualities.
