Part 2:
The right business name is important. If you choose the wrong one, you might end up with
something that sends all the wrong messages. To be successful, your business name needs to
define your identity and say what’s special about what you are offering.
Think about the market you want to sell into, and why your customer will prefer to buy
YOUR product or service rather than someone else’s. A good business name is one that tells
customer what to expect. For example, Early Learning Centre appeals to parents because it
tells them that the toys it sells are educational.

Illiterate names have caught on everywhere, that is names that involve deliberately misspelled
words. Kwik-Fit, the company that promises to fit car parts speedily, was one of the first in the
UK. The name was the brainchild of Kwik-Fit’s chief executive, who, as a schoolboy, earned
extra pocket money cleaning ovens. He advertised himself as Kookers Kleaned! Some people
grumble about these misspellings, arguing, for example, that children will copy them, but even
these purists don’t hesitate to buy an ice cream from Phun Phlavours! These misspellings work
because they catch the eye. The trouble is, as more and more are invented, they lose more
impact.

But unusual names are not always the most effective. Names like Tie Rack or Body Shop which
just say what your company is about can work just as well. They are short, and they have an
honest no-nonsense ring to them. Sometimes using a personal name can achieve the same effect:
Laura Ashley projects a gentle and elegant image that makes the customer feel comfortable
about buying that company’s products.
If you are providing a service, decide whether your company name should describe your
customer’s problem or your unique solution to the problem. For example, a vehicle breakdown
service could call itself Panic Breakdowns, which only serves to emphasize the negative state of
mind of the customer; or Instant Rescue, which sends out a reassuring message that help is at
hand. Which name would you select if you had a burst water pipe: Flood Warning or Peace of
Mind?
Consider too the impact your name will have when people hear it or read it. What effect does it
have when spoken over the telephone? Snappy Happy Snaps may describe your photographic
agency, but it sounds ridiculous over the phone. When your name appears in Yellow Pages or
similar directories, usually amongst a hundred others offering a similar service, you want yours
to be the one that catches the eye. One trick is to ensure that the first letter of your name appears
early in the alphabet. A business in Finland called itself by the meaningless name Quello,
simply because there is no letter Q in Finnish, so Quello was the only entry in the directory
under that letter!

If you deal with overseas customers, check that your name won’t cause you problems. A good
translation agency will help you avoid the trap of choosing a name that means something
offensive in another language. There is a famous case of a stick deodorant manufactured by an
Asian company who had selected a name which meant something really bad in English. The
matter was made worse by the instruction printed on it in English, which read ‘Push up bottom’.

A They have been used so much that people no longer notice them

B They are bad because children will learn wrong spellings.


C They are good because people find them amusing.
D They fail to describe the service or product accurately.
42. According to the writer, a business name is a good one if it
A identifies your market needs.
B avoids confusion with other companies.
C creates a different kind of image.
D persuades people to use your company.
