3 Steps to Take When Coming up with a Name for a startup

3 STEPS TO TAKE WHEN COMING UP WITH A NAME FOR A STARTUP by Justin Young with 702 Pros

In this Post I’ll Go over the Steps I Take When Coming up with a name for a startup

Coming up with a name for a startup may be the most important part of your business journey. It is often the first thing someone notices about your business and if done well will never be forgotten, of course, marketing/branding, product/service, and customer service play very important roles as well. Ok, enough chit-chat lets get down to why you’re here.

THE THREE STEPS

Step 1: Brainstorming

First thing you want to do is brainstorm… Think of two phrases that describe your business. In this example, we’ll use dog walking.

First work is dog
Second word is walking

Next you’re going to look a handful of synonyms for each word, compiling them into a list

ie. for Dog

  1. pup
  2. puppy
  3. doggy
  4. hound
  5. mutt
  6. pooch
  7. tyke
  8. bowwow
  9. fido
  10. fleabag
  11. man’s best friend
  12. tail-wagger

ie. for Walking

  1. hike
  2. parade
  3. stroll
  4. tour
  5. stretch
  6. step
  7. march
  8. stride
  9. fido
  10. tread
  11. circuit
  12. ramble

Step 2: Domain Lookup

Once you’ve came up with a few good names, it’s time to take those names and combine them.

With your name combinations, ie. puphikes, doogymarch, fleabagstrolls (note: you can make them plural too) – go over to namecheap.com and see if any of the combinations you came up with are available for registration. This is very important for branding your business and finding one of these combinations in a domain will help make your brand look more polished and professional.

when you go to Namecheap make sure and input the word combination like this, puphikes.com (fun side note! this domain is still available and it is pretty good, but I may buy it so if you’re reading this, BUY IT QUICK! another side note, domain purchasing is kind of like stocks or real-estate, in fact it is digital real-estate that will only grow in the future so buy all the domains you can while they are still relatively cheap.)

Step 3: State Registration

Once you’ve checked the domain and found a name for your business, its time to check if it’s available on a state level (chances are 99.9999999999999999% sure it is available if the domain is still available.

Once all three of theses requirements are met – you’re done!! Yoou’ve found a really solid name to grow with 🙂

Sticking to a schedule or regimen when starting a business

Why Creating a Schedule and Regimen (Startup Schedule) is so important when starting a new business

Title: Sticking to a schedule or regimen when starting a business (Startup Schedule)

Description: In this video, I cover why it’s SO important to stick to a schedule aka (Startup Schedule) when starting your business. How you have to think of it like a 9-5+++ job, and disregard misconceptions about freedom, at least in the startup phase.

Schedules are difficult, imparticular for someone like me who could work 24/7. Call it a curse, call it a strength. I/(my ex’s) would say it’s a bit a both, more for the latter. (I guess I’m kind of the guy you love until you hate, with a vengeance! but I digress.)

If you’re like me, a ‘go 24/7’ kind of person, you find it a challenge to stick to a set schedule, in particular staying on a specific task (Dang ADHD!). However, if you want your business to succeed you need to set an effective schedule and stick to it to the ‘T’, also set up a regimen of important tasks, only you can do! Once you start to stick to those tasks, you establish a pattern. Remember to fine-tune your regimen, only focusing on the most essentially BOSS tasks, ones that will grow your business.

Before you know it, you will have created a pattern of success. One you can use for any business.

POWERTIP: at some point, you will find no matter how well you distribute your time, you will start to fall behind as your business grows. That’s when you know its time to HIRE SOME PEEPS to help care the load and grow your business to the phase.

Hope this helps you on your business journey. Safe entrepreneurial travels!
