Need Help With Business Slogan


My boyfriend currently has a handyman business "Wheeler's Handyman Service" and has decided to get his Class A Contractor's License and move up to bigger and better things as a general contractor so we are trying to come up with a new Company Name and Slogan...Any suggestions....

If at all possible he would like to keep Wheeler somewhere in there (first name is Rick)

Thanks!!

How come he's not the one asking? We would need to know what skills he possesses, location might be helpful, what he wants to specialize in...etc, etc

Re: Need Help With Business Slogan


In all seriousness though, what you're asking is a question for a design / identity branding house. There is a reason these places exsist. People take this real serious and have alot of schooling/training for this.
Were talking about your business identity here. If you do it yourself start with using the font " helvetica".

Re: Need Help With Business Slogan


I can't help you with a slogan. And I don't know where you are located. But if your area is anything like mine, I need to give you some serious advice.

Research the insurance prices for GENERAL Contractors, as compared with lesser licenses. If I had done that, I probably would have never gotten my GC. Almost nothing I have done in 28 years has required that level of license.... yet, I have paid the premiums for that license every single year. I estimate the difference has come close to being over a quarter of a million dollars I paid out unnecessarily.

The few jobs I've done that honestly required a class A, I could have bought a qualifier for a whole lot less.

Think about it.

The funny thing about this thread is that it reminds me of the other thread about the guys using their GF's email addresses to apply for jobs.
