Naming Names... How to Name your Business


Sometimes the best inspiration comes from hearing about the deconstruction of other company's names. For you, I am happy to share how I came up with "Slice A Day :: your slice on marketing"...

  • First the purpose and vision of my site was to have people volunteer some marketing stories...true case studies of business owners and how they promote business.
     
  • Then gathered the supplies for brainstorming. I had a sheet of paper, pencil and a dictionary/thesaurus.
     
  • Let the brainstorming begin!

    I love really clever, catchy and visual names. It comes from having a web design and creative background. The AIGA.org hosts a local networking event called "Brew" with the tagline "where ideas perculate". I loved it! And to mimic it's genius, here is where that spark of inspiration took me.

    ::: Start List :::

    "grill - where ideas sizzle"
     
    "water cooler" 
       ...sidenote: i thought that's where people really talk openly
     
    "feedbag - serving up ideas"
     
    "your market draw" 
       ...sidenote: i don't know how i got here
     
    "evoke" 
      ...sidenote: now i'm just writing words, synonyms
     
    "persuade"
       ...sidenote: this is where the dictionary & thesaurus come in

    "convince"

    "share"

    ... a few minutes pass by
    ... a few more minutes pass by

    "Slice-A-Day.com" 
       ...sidenote: visual images of pie and cake
       ...sidenote: slice is a portion of a bigger piece...hmm

    "Share Your Slice On Marketing" 
       ...sidenote: tagline that explains and supports vision
     
    ::: End Brainstorming List :::
  • I like "slice" because you just get quick and small chunks to read... just enough to evoke a thought, to make you think, or to leave you wanting more.

    Who?s Who In The Mental Health Service: GPS, Psychiatrists, Psychologists, CPNS And Allied Therapists
    When a person is experiencing psychological or emotional difficulties (hereafter called ?mental health problems?), they may well attend their GP. The GP will interview them and based on the nature and severity of the persons symptoms may either recommend treatment himself or refer the person on to a specialist. There can seem a bewildering array of such specialists, all with rather similar titles, and one can wonder as to why they?ve been referred to one specialist rather than another. In this article I give an outline of the qualifications, roles and typical working styles of these specialists. This may be of interest to anyone who is about to, or already seeing, these specialists.
