Hello All,

I have decided to change my business name and I wanted to get advice and feedback. I'm curious if any of you have gone through this before with a brick and mortar store and what your experience was. What are the pros and cons? Here is a little background of my business.

The name of my business is Sofas 4 Less and I sell custom sofas. My store is located in San Francisco. I moved my location into San Francisco 15 months ago after being about 30 miles away for 5 years. Business is doing pretty good but I know it could be a lot better. I feel my business name is holding me back. Originally I sold cheap sofas and that is why I first had the name. Now though the name doesn't suggest I sell custom sofas. Plus my prices are very good so most people assume that something is wrong. Like it is too good to be true. Usually it is only after they read my Yelp reviews they are convinced to buy from me. Please let me know if you have questions. I appreciate any feedback. Thank you.
