Try the phone test:
"Hello, Sew What." How will that go over with customers? Same with answering machine messages. Also, will people you casually mention your business to hear it as "so what?" Try the other possibilities and see how you like saying them and how they might sound to others. marcella |

OT AARP (was gotta list, wanna vote - business name thread again)
I think that I am the only person alive that turned 50 without an
invitation to join AARP. I am a member but it is my mother's membership, she had paid for several years when she died and they transferred it to me. Shame, other than health I don't feel old enough to belong to the group but I am. LOL today my oldest sister told my dad that he had senior citizens for kids now. I am sure that didn't make him feel too good either.

The worst day of my life was the day I got the AARP invitation to join. Honestly, most days I don't even feel like a grownup yet. I had to laugh at your siggie quote. I got a telemarketing call from the AARP when I was in college, asking me to join. I told them I was pretty sure I didn't qualify, and the lady on the other end cheerily said "Oh, you only have to be 50!" I told her I wasn't even old enough to drink alcohol legally and was barely old enough to vote, but that she might want to call back in 30 years or so. So I did get an invitation, and I sure didn't feel like a grownup yet! LOL Jacqueline http://www.mountain-breeze.com Recipes and other fun things |

There are lots of Sew and Sews etc around - someone looking you up in
a directory might get the wrong one! I have a dreadful memory but think I would remember a name that started with Larissa better. If I remembered the Larissa bit I could look you up in the 'phone directory. I would never remember a series of letters (can't even remember my car numberplate) and would probably look under R or V. I would go with Larissa followed by what service your offer, to differentiate you from Larissa the Hairdresser. Also think how the name would come over on the 'phone - would people be able to hear it correctly. I once worked for The Curriculum Support Service - people were always mishearing us as Curriculum Sports Service!

Apologies for misspelling your name Larisa - too used to writing my
neighbour Melissa's name, with the double-S. Realised as soon as I'd pressed the send button. -- Sally at the Seaside ~~~~~~~~~~ (uk) http://community.webshots.com/user/sallyswin On Tue, 08 Aug 2006 16:55:19 +0100, Sally Swindells wrote: There are lots of Sew and Sews etc around - someone looking you up in a directory might get the wrong one!

Plus, if people start seeing the ads,
cards, etc. the name Larisa will 'stick' in their minds. When they meet Larisa, they will say "Oh, Are you the Larisa who sews? I need a new dress."

LOL used to it. I sometimes spell other "iss-ah" names wrong because
of my spelling, so don't worry about it. Larisa Sally Swindells wrote: Apologies for misspelling your name Larisa - too used to writing my neighbour Melissa's name, with the double-S.
