Thanks @NotableCA for featuring me as today's young entrepreneur! bit.ly/1SxmqWG #entrepreneur #startuplife

A11) It's YOUR Business! As long as you put hard work, dedication, drive and hustle for it! Your name will be a success as will the product/item/service you're offering. @ciranews #StartupChats

A10) How will you market yourself with the new name? What will you do with the older name's social media accounts/domains etc. And most importantly why are you changing the name? @ciranews #StartupChats

A9) This isn't a difference, but I would say one thing to keep in mind is registering a business name doesn't guarantee that the Social Media handle's are available. It's best to double check all handles before you register. @ciranews #StartupChats

A8) I would say the biggest one is not doing your initial research to see if there is any hidden meaning behind it, if it’s insensitive or disrespectful in any form and also assuming it’s up for grabs. @ciranews #StartupChats

A7) 2/2 and if you need to edit and make a change later with your business name that's okay too. Having a business is all about learning and growing!!! @ciranews #StartupChats

A7) 1/2 Reach out to any mentors or friends that have businesses and get their opinions. If You dabble in graphic design come up with some logo options. Remember a name doesn't have to be permanent if it works now great ... @ciranews #StartupChats

A6) Aside from it being politically correct, respectful and historically not offensive. Will the name represent your future business growth? Will it be something you'll be proud of in years to come. @ciranews #StartupChats

A5)Look to see what’s been taken first and make sure you’re not pivoting off something you love that is still similar to the original. Also ask your loved ones/ Spouses they will be honest and may help with the creative process. Be fluid and open to ideas! @ciranews #StartupChats

A4) It needs to be catchy! Respectful and entice people to want to learn more. It also needs to be memorable. Also make sure your business name isn’t similar to a competitor’s. @ciranews #StartupChats

A3) So many to list, I think a lot of them are participating in today’s #StartupChats! @ciranews #StartupChats

A2) It depends on what your business is, if it’s service based, business or sales. You want your name to capture the essence of your business but also have people want to know more about it and do their own research. @ciranews #StartupChats

A1) It ties your dream together, everything you’ve thought of pitched and hustled for. All of the sleepless nights, bank meetings, client pitches... It all begins with a name! @ciranews #StartupChats

It's #StartupChats Wednesday! I can't wait to get started in today's chats. Big thanks to @ciranews for sponsoring today!

A11) 2/2 Never be afraid to have real conversations, the tools should add to your day not take away the things you love about your business!!!! @MastercardCA #StartupChats

A11) 1/2 Don't rely on them! As great as tools are, don't forget why you started your business in the first place. Remember that a personalized email or a phone call goes a long way. @MastercardCA #StartupChats

A10) By getting your whole team's feedback before you implement it. If there are fears on how to use it or even questioning the necessity behind using it, take a step back and reconsider. @MastercardCA #StartupChats

A9)When you're comfortable with the discomfort that can come with implementing them. Also when you have an idea of how the tool will benefit your business, and also how you want to use it. @MastercardCA #StartupChats

A8) Reach out to similar Startups! The tools we use shouldn't be kept a secret, how we use them and what we store in them are. It never hurts to ask a fellow CEO for a bit of insight. We all need help at some point in our business life. @MastercardCA #StartupChats

A7) Adding additional users to the tool itself, if there are overage fees, the support service that is offered with the tool. Accessibility and if it integrates with your platforms.@MastercardCA #StartupChats

A6) 2/2 If the tool itself is only helping with a small need but has a big price tag, is it worth it?@MastercardCA #StartupChats
