Things not to be done while choosing Startup Names

Avoid long business names: Long business names or Tag Lines can look fancy as your brand, however, can result in a negative impact when it comes to business growth. A simple understanding is that long and complicated Startup Names are no doubt difficult to be remembered and re-called and your prospect customers will end up moving to your competitors. At the same time, long brand names will also make it difficult for your SEO Outsourcing Company to get you rank high.

Avoid hurrying the Name Selection process: Brand name selection is once in a lifetime process and would need quite a few factors to be considered in the finalization. Hurrying up the process might lead to a miss of important factors to be taken care of. Making any change to the business name, might not be possible in future and if you still look at modifying the brand name, it would lead to a great loss in terms of all the previous marketing as well as promotion efforts.

Don’t forget the basic Vision and Mission: Before putting your foot forward, you should always be sure about your business mission. The name that you select for your startup should always be inline with your target. Let me share an example to make it easy for your to understand: If you get into a retailing business, I am sure your goal is simply to get more customers and sales, however, if you get into news or media or publication, initially your primary goal would be to get more readers for your write-ups, no matter they pay for the subscription or not. The understanding is simple, if you have more readers, you can still earn from the advertisements, if not the subscription. So, you should always be clear on the actual goal of your startup.

Keep whittling down your list. This list will continue to dwindle as you check your brand name ideas for exact match dot-com #DomainNames. From the small list which is left, your choice will be much easier! https://www.instagram.com/p/B5D6u-eD1J4/?igshid=o42droggaqoi

Business Name Selection

It is very important to make sure that your startup name does not resemble any other players in the industry, however, getting hold of a creative business name is not as simple as it appears to be.

The first thing that any of your customers or clients would notice is your business name. If it is not easy to be remembered it will be difficult or might not be possible for the customers to remember or recall your brand name, whenever they wish to reach out again in future.

Let’s look at the key aspects to be taken care of while selecting a Unique name: 

Creating a Brand: While choosing Startup Names, you should always remember that you are about to create a brand. You may plan to re-work upon the logo, web designing, advertising, online and offline promotion etc. However, you cannot afford to recreate the brand again, as it would mean starting again from scratch. So, in most cases, it is once and forever.

Originality: It is important to ensure that the brand name you choose is not already in use. At the same time after you have finalized the name, you should immediately secure the domain with the same name, it will help you whenever you plan to use the online channel.

Relevant: The business name should be relevant as per the industry and should convey the nature of your business to the audience. This way it becomes easy to attract relevant people and filter out irrelevant traffic to your store.

It’s true, off the wall #StartUpNames grab attention. Sometimes a #CreativeBrandName or whimsical #Business name is just what you need to stand out in a crowded market. Moreover, these #BusinessNames can draw attention and generate interest in your #StartUp “There is so much clutter out there,” you need to get through. Thus, one way to cut that clutter is with a fun and whimsical name or even one that is “no name at all.” https://www.instagram.com/p/BuwwtB_gHw6/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=vey0wuspzetl

It sounds simple but, a good #BrandName is easy to spell. But… a great brand name is really easy to spell. No matter if for #fintech, #ITTech, or a product for the bathroom, the perfect #StartUpName should have only one spelling option, in short there should be only one way to spell the name. For example, consider the pharmaceutical company name Pfizer. While the name is short in length, it is somewhat complicated to spell. #Entrepreneurs should consider if there’s more than one alternative in the spelling of a prospective company name, the more likely a firm is to confuse or lose customers. Don’t let your Brand Name work against you! https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs8fTw9lol7/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=t3y503i4tpzh

At @Brandings_ we advise all our clients to secure the dot-com #DomainName first. If you can’t procure the exact match domain for your #StartupName, we strongly advise move on or adopting another #BrandName where you can. #Branding Consider this, if you register any other #Domain Extension, such as, dot.net, dot.org, dot.TV or any of the other million available extensions and your competition owns the dot-com – you’ll be sending your customers to your competitor.

#Biztip - it is not necessary that your #ProductName be the same as your #StartupName. The exception is if your firm only offers the one product and you don’t ever plan on expanding. And, for a single product #business, we recommend that the product name, #startup name and the #DomainName all be identical. It’s a way of streamlining your operation for #success! https://www.instagram.com/p/CDmO4QYgOtj/?igshid=7p8yzdtyux8g

#EntrepreneurTip - The longer your #BusinessName, the greater the propensity for confusion, mix-ups and misspellings. Growth-driven #StartUps must have an active on-line web presence so something as simple as a customer making a typo or misspelling will likely send that buyer to a competitor’s website. Keep your #StartUpName short and interesting. #BrandNaming www.brandings.com/unique-business-names.php
