Hi guys,
can you guys please suggest some names for my new Silk screening company?

something catchy.
Nothing plain,
My shop is called "Ghostwork Ink Printing"
...exactly.
Do something legit like Slingin' Ink Print Shop or something.
Not like. "(towns name) printing"

He's right, it has to be something that peopl will remember.
We our Worn Identi-tees. It has worked well so far.
The company we bought out was merely "A-Town Printing"
(we live in a town that starts with A) and they didn't last too long for numerous reasons, but the name got lost in the shuffle. Good Luck with choosing!

Just a thought-
Laurie

What sort of theme are you doing? ...or just general printing?

Gunaa · March 13th, 2009, 07:37 PM

just general printing.

Almost named my company Viking Embroidery, Given the fact that I am a 6'6" and 100% Swedish but I ended up with pride stitch embroidery ... .

My advice, take something simple, and something off the wall and try to combine them. Naming can be the hardest part.

Naming:

If you are in a small town, using the towns name is ALWAYS a good thing because small local towns like using local people and like hearing the towns name. If you are in a large city go with the catchy name. Remember make sure they can spell the name of your company like it sounds. Simple is always good.

On a side note, the name of your company really makes no difference, do you offer a quality product, do you stand behind your product, etc. This is what really matters. CUSTOMER SERVICE WILL SELL YOUR NAME

I have to disagree
years ago when i wasn't a printer there was 3 print shops in the area, 2/3 had (town name) (a+) Printing..or how ever they worded it. The 3rd company was Endless Ink Printing. The name not only caught my attention but it sounded a lot more fresh compared to the others. People that walk into the shop want to see it looking nice, tight, and clean, nothing old. Of course customer service matters and quality of your prints matters, but people dont look at that right away; you have to reel your customers in with your apperence and name before you show them the quality of your work!

and Worn Identi-tees is a awesome name laurie!
