Why You Should Consider Changing Your Business Name!!!
- Your Current Company Name Can't Be Copyrighted
A lack of copyright control can be very damaging the future of your business, as it prevents effective branding and can stifle revenue streams from advertising or merchandising. Depending on the reasons for the copyright issue, you might also be walking into a legal fight in the future if you choose to try to keep your current name.
- Your Current Name is Hard to Remember
The importance of the stickiness of a name cannot be understated. Blue Ribbon Sports is much harder to remember than Nike, for example. Longer names or those involving foreign language phrases are much more likely to be vulnerable to this issue.
- Repositioning
Consider changing your brand’s name when your business is poised to expand into a new market: a tea shop might need to consider a new logo at the very least if it were to add coffee to its repertoire, let alone something more radical like shifting to become a gaming café or sports bar.
- Your Business' Legacy Has Been Tarnished
While it is the goal of every business owner to maintain a strong public image, sometimes it can be tarnished through circumstances outside of your control. In these cases, it can be correct to change the name of your business to distance yourself from the past: you are a new business in the public eye, and you won’t make the same mistake again.
- You've Experienced Substantial Product Growth
This typically occurs when a product or service becomes so successful that the company actually becomes known by the name of that product or service. Examples include BestBuy, which descended from an electronics store that held a massive “best buy” sale at one of its store following a tornado strike, and 37Signals, which changed its name to Basecamp following the large-scale success of their product.
