DON'T SPEND TOO MUCH TIME THINKING OF A BUSINESS NAME!
Determining a business name can seem like one of the hardest parts about starting a virtual
assistant business. Whatever you choose, here are some tips to keep in mind:
- Don’t overthink it. Your name is important, but don’t spend weeks on coming up on a name.
Give yourself a deadline and decide on a name within 1 week. The name won’t land clients.
The quality of your work and how you present yourself will!
- Use your name. Many people use their name as a business name. For example, Kia Smith
would use Kia Smith Virtual Assistant Services or Kia The Savvy VA.
- Think of adjectives to go along with keywords.
