Default Another idea - what do you think?
I plan to have my business name discovered and registered for both domain name and hosting by the end of this month...

Right now I am thinking of this:

Joyful Assistant - Virtually savvy (for slogan)

What do you think?

I like it as well - there are a lot of creative directions you can go while branding yourself as the "Joyful Assistant."

Sometimes it's helpful to emphasize how a VA is a happy administrator, compared to many 'employees' who feel oppressed. So that could be a very attractive business name!

Hello everyone!

I PM'ed Tess not realizing she gets so much in a day, oops! No more PM's for her, from me. :0)

What do you think of this business name?

Octopus Savvy Assistant - Virtual Management

www.OSAVM.com

Why octopus? Because it represents the ability to do many things...

But I am currently working on finding a different word for "O"...

Do you notice anything about this?

OSAVM ??



It is "Oh - Save me!" So www.OSAVM.com

I like it because that is what virtual assistants is for! To help assistant others who are overwhelmed & need help in their daily business activies.

What do you think?? I think it is original and clever. I might do have to find a different word for "O" though - we'll see.

Or maybe O Savvy Assistant - Virtual Management? LOL.

With much warmth,
Yvonne

Yvonne,
I *do* get way too many PMs to be able to answer questions like this - and by posting to the boards you get the feedback of an entire community Thanks for understanding!

So - about the business name - I think it's definitely interesting...very creative; may I suggest playing around with the word/connotation of 'octopus' a bit more? I'm not sure that 'Octopus Savvy' gives the impression you're hoping for - it sounds more like just what it says - that you're savvy about octopus

It IS a cute idea though to start with and I love that you're going in a totally nontraditional direction!

Yeah, I know (about the octopus thingy)

I looked up some words starting with the letter "O"...How about:

Office Savvy Assistant - Virtual Management?

This way I can keep my "OSAVM", hehe. It has a good sense of humor too, if you think about it! Oh - save me! LoL
