need some input ASAP for my companie's name

[Steve K]

how does the name "visiposure" (visi-posure) strike you ?
it a fusion of two things that all companies need to succeed, vision and exposure

yay or nay ?

I don't care for it because:

1) It's too hard to pronounce when reading it
2) If you have a website for the company, people are constantly going to be mis-typing it and won't be able to find you because they mis-spell the name.
3) Because of it being a hybrid of two half-names, it doesn't tell me, the customer, what your business is or what you can do for me.

As a customer, I would rather just see "John Doe Marketing" or "John Doe Consulting", that tells me that you're a marketing company or a consulting company. Visiposure doesn't tell me that, it just confuses me.

I like visi, but not posure.. Branding your own name is good suggestion

im not sure if i want to use my name because i wont be the only person working with the company, and the goal is to generate a good amount of growth (but leaving some on the table) and then sell out

not a fan either. you need to be sure that a) when you pronounce it, people can spell it correctly 99% of the time -- if not, you can easily spell it out for them, and b) the domain is not too confusing, available, and easy to transfer from word-of-mouth to text.

Also, what helped me when I was trying to decide on my company's name were a bunch of domain name generators-- nameboy.com comes to mind, but there are a bunch more. You can kill 2 birds with one stone...get cool company and domain name ideas, and see if the domain names are available so you are not wasting your time checking godaddy.com for every idea you come up with.

off the cuff, brain sleep deprived idea-

Top Dog Consulting- Learn how to become the top dog in your industry through our total profit maximizing..... ok the idea just ran out of steam in my head, but you get the idea.

smooth
actually ive been doing that quite often

the moment something would come to mind, i would immediately look to see if the domain was available

 

[Smooth]

@steve k: would you develop it and resell? turn it into a valuable website & collect income? flip the domain instantly w/o developing it?

 

[sparechange?]

nope I don't like it either.

I'm still stuck on my company name

It's 3am or I'd suggest some names for you.
