    Hi,

    I'm looking to start a new heating and air conditioning company and have been asking TW to help me with the name of my company.

    I've narrowed it down to the three names listed above. I welcome and thank you for your feedback!

    Dependable Care would get you closer to the front in the phone book. People are lazy and do not wish to read to many pages in. I used to be in the Appliance Repair business ages ago. Advanced Appliance Service. That's my .2 cents!

    Lol, you'd be surprised how well some companies do with the phone book, most o the "big players" spend thousands of dollars advertising in the yellow pages, I think it's because so-cal has a large number of retiree's, the mean age in places like Laguna Woods is 55yrs :eek:!

    I am shocked every year when they drop them off at the office lol I hope they don't still cost as much as they used to! We payed (16 years ago) from $500 to $1500 (half page) and up per month for listings per phone book! Was nuts!

    I like all the qualities as well, but I'm looking for a short name that is easy to remember, I feel like folks might get confused with DQR heating and air. Know what I mean?

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    Advanced Air and Heat would get you on the first page.

    If you get a business phone line you get put in the YP for free. Just bus. name and number. Not a big ad. In four years of being in the YP with the free ad I dont think I have ever got a job from YP. I would put your money into your own website. The internet is way more popular than YP.

    Yep. Referral sites are huge around here! Yelp, and Angie's seem to be the 2 biggest referral sites.

    This is a cool name, but do you think it communicates our mission statement of quality and reliability?

    Personally I think Quality is the more over used of the three. Dependable has the most emotional response.

    I would think outside the box and maybe go with "Trust, Care, Heat and Air." TCHA. Or trusting..
