Choosing a business name

[levi r]

Hi, I'm hoping to please get some advice for choosing a business name. I've been waffling over this decision for months and I need to pick something this weekend and just get on with it. I have ideas for something as basic as 'Boulder Arborist' to some more out there stuff like 'bountiful dragon' I actually did choose a name that I just really don't like 'cloud tree care,' the actual name of my business is just my first and last name, but I don't want to drive around with that on my truck, just need a new dba that I can get behind. Thanks for any and all advice.

Your name is Rockett?

You have to use that in some form!

So on the van you have
‘Rockett Man…’
Then underneath in smaller letters..
‘Cutting down your yews and the odd madrone…’

My ex wife was the one who picked the name, I wasn't sure I liked it. It is very memorable, I'll give it that.

Is that your business name? I like it. I know you're in the CA high country from what I remember.

There was a massive tulip tree growing in the patio about 12' from my customer's mansion. Probably 5' dbh, just a monster. I took a limb or two and deadwood off of it over the years but wasn't thrilled about the prospect of removing the tree which is obviously what it needed. The best way appeared to be reaching over the house from the driveway with a huge crane. Despite, or because, they were millionaires, they were cheap and ended up getting some retarded outfit with utterly beaten equipment who I'd never seen before and they bashed their way thru landscaping and trees to get a crane into the backyard close to the tree and removed it.

Their trucks advertised dual specialties- building demolition and tree removal and so they were aptly named: Homewreckers LLC.

I just googled, they appear to be outta business, go figure

Levi, are you going for totally local versus regional flexibility?
