NEED HELP: Trying to think of a good business name

Postby nothin suss » March 25th, 2008, 10:55 am

Due to my lack of creativity im really struggling to think of a business name.
Im not opening a shop as such, bugger that. Just need a name and ABN to make a few things easier.

I would like it to be able to incorporate vehicles, performance parts and motorbike stuff.

All i can really come up with is my initials (DSR Performance) and the like, which is lame. And nothing to do with 'nothin suss'

Help please!!!!

Thanks,
-Daniel

If it's for tax, it really dones matter. Even if you decide to start a business, you can still have a 'trading as' name..

Thanks for your replies guys.. I still think i will steer away from my initials.
And i need it to be automotive/performance related otherwise other businesses shy away from dealing with 'just another person with a business name'.

Keep think-tanking tho!

ROFL! PRE-LAY FLANGE AUSTRALIA!

I suppose you could always go POST-LAY FLANGE then... :|

How about something like "Power Enhancing Solutions" or any other string of words that's equally as non-meaningful and bland.

Thats not too bad, its a bit limited tho.

I thought of 'revtune' just before. We always give this guy at work shit because his idea of a tune is popping the left foot in the door and revving the crap out of his cars. Hence revtune... Its funny for us anyways.

Remember a trading name and a ABN are totally separate. An ABN gets attached to your personal tax record.
