    Good luck with your company. Starting my excavation business was the biggest risk I ever took but it was also the best decision I ever made. I don't know about your area but work here in Washington st is booming. Your goal for your business is spot on.

    Josh,

    Thanks for the positive feedback! Business is good in OC, but not as strong as it used to be. The housing market is back so home owners are comfortable investing in their homes again.
    I definitely have some reservations about starting my own business, but I know that with hard work, dedication, positive thinking and quality service success will come. I just hope it doesn't take too long. :D

    Stick with it and success will come. I've been going 4 years now and business has at least doubled every year. When I first started it was hard to get work sometimes but now we are doing housing developments including sewer and water mains. Someone will take a chance on the new guy and always leave every customer happy. Referals and repete business is important to any contractor.

    Thanks for the feedback. I agree about keeping it short and sweet, the main issue I am having is that all the "short and sweet" names appear to have been taken, also, per state law, I have to have heating and air conditioning, or a variation of it in my name. That alone is a pretty long tittle.

    Something just occurred to me, how about "heating and air conditioning company" or ,"easy to remember heating and air"?

    congrats OP on your business endeavor!

    ..i voted for the first option "quality care heating in air" because it's succinct and the rhyme makes it "catchy", ...recognizable... i think that is important when it comes to the marketing of your business... keep in mind thought that some people who may frantically dig into the yellow pages when a problem arises, ...might introduce a bias toward the listing near the front of the HVAC section simply because they are in alphabetical order, ...or the ones w/ the little ad pieces... i don't know how much of a factor this really is, ...just food for thought.. ;)

    Hey thanks for the feed back. Yellow pages is a dying medium around here. Most people are turning to referal sites to select their contractors(ie yelp, Angie's list, etc). Therefore I'm not too worried about where my business name lands Alphabetically, I'm more concerned with having a name that is easy to remember and one which conveys our mission statement. Thanks again for your feedback.
