Your boss is thinking about this. How long has he been "thinking" about this. My problem with bosses is that they usually think too much and do too little.

There are lots of names of companies that are incorporated. The thing to do is work out what effect it has on your customers. Because they make the decisions around here. Get that right and see your profits leap.

Let me know what the thinking behind his ideas are. Moriarty.

First, you might want to define "good".

Second, I think you'll find that incorporation refers to the status of a business, not its name.

If you incorporate your business the name can remain the same.

It is way past time for your boss to talk to a lawyer re tax structures and liability implications before adding anything to the company name
