      Some buisness help

      Hope some of you may be able to help me out,



      ....a little background.....

      I have been doing paint work for about 15 years now and really want to open my own shop and concentrate on doing custom work. I have a pretty good following of my work and it is time to do this on my own.

      Now here is what I need help with..........A NAME

      Im at a mental block here, I cant think of anything that is catchy, so I am hoping some of you creative geniuses can help.

      thanks in advance,
      Joe

      The difference between an environmentalist and a developer is that a developer wants to build a house in the woods, an environmentalist already has one.

      You don't need your own name in it to make it work.

      IT has to be catchy. If you have your name in it, people will just think, well who the hell is he

      Forget the name for now, concentrate on putting together a business plan and at least one year's operating expenses. Once you got that...then come up with a name.

      Thanks for the input guys, I agree it has to be something catchy, that is why Im having such a hard time.

      I hopefully have all the funding done (find out in the next week or so) so now I need a name to get incorperated, oh yeah I also need a shop.

      the only name I came up with so far is "Hot Shot Customs", its kinda catchy and I am pretty well known for doing flames. So what do ya think?

      I also like a couple of your suggestions, so thanks again!

      when I hear Hot Shot, I think of roach killer or a local pizza delivery place with the same names.

      hmmm, flame names....
