I don't have a website or much web presence and I am fine with that for now.

Yeah the PA screen printing place is what comes up when I google it too.:laughing:

I think that's awesome, personally. The history of our trade is littered with brilliant craftsmen who were exceptional at what they did, and someone always found them without the benefit of the internet. I know, I know, times change, but maybe I'm just a bit nostalgic. I sometimes just get so tired of reading these trade magazines, like Remodeling, that talk on and on ad nauseum about marketing strategies, advertising, logos, SEO, and so forth. I think alot of that would be unnessesary nif there was better quality work being done.

O.K. I'm shutting up now.

I feel the same way, Face to face networking goes much further than a website.

I think if you are going to be a builder, I think General Contractor is the better way to go. I even go by xyz Construction Company. But the thing that you do have to consider is the law. In NC, you cannot call yourself a General Contractor unless you have taken the test and completed all the paperwork requirements. Construction Companies can imply all kinds of companies.

I have only heard of a few companies with the names in it being sold and those were good times. So pick a name that you are comfortable with and make sure the licensing is right and get with the program.
