If you could would you start your own business ?

Hi John
This forum will be the first place I announce any developments and i will let you know.

My next mission is to think of a name for the business, what do you guys think and have you any ideas ?
I'll start you off

Wreck A Mended
Auto Body Restore

wreck a mended is clever but sounds like a hairdressers slogan imo

ABC or ABS if you want car related

 

[smithandroper]

I have thought of

Auto Spray Worx
Auto Spray Tec

 

[Gez]

Centre*

i think it should be?

 

[Gez]

I'd go for the ABC one and have small writing under it saying

"as easy as ABC" lol

 

[smithandroper]

How about
R.S Tec ?

 

[smithandroper]

It will be a body shop offering-
Any bodywork (repairs/painting)
Paintless dent removal
Insurance work
Trade work
Air conditioning

We will have a commercial spray booth and our own paint mixing scheme.

We are also going to do Plasti dipping !!!!

Glad you are going for it Carl

Don't want to put a dampener on your plan but

I would seriously avoid or at least do some research in to plasti dipping, very well known for ruining paint/clear coat, not something a start up company could afford to absorb, if someone comes demanding a full respray due to ruined paintwork

The rest sounds awesome though, I hope you do very well

Has the unfortunate result of sounding like you fix arses.

I was going to suggest PaintSmith, I'm sure everyone can work that one out

Yeah you can write it that way too [emoji5]️

 

[john_walker74]

Really no good at names, but the best so far is ABS.

Lol I did't think of it it like that !

I have just checked and auto body center and autobodycenter.co.uk is available

but thats the american way of spelling centre unless you are talking center parks etc

 

[smithandroper]

Dam that's trusting auto correct for you, auto body centre is taken

 

[smithandroper]

now things are getting into motion I am thinking about a logo !

This is what I have come up with so far, What do you think ?

 

[Gez]

That's awesome! 10/10 for that design, proper thought has gone into that

the concept is very good. Not keen on the font, looks like it was done in word.

My best advice to you is to pay a designer to do your logo. Your branding is the first thing people see and paints (Excuse the pun) the image of your company.

Check out http://www.bimbodesign.co.uk

Lynsey did my logo and Caps & Cuffs logo, she's very good and very reasonably priced too.

Sounds like a plan
