I am currently doing some freelance marketing but am wanting to move it from an on-the-side endeavor to a part-time gig (I'm a working mommy and don't want to work FT). I've been thinking about my business name and wonder if those of you who freelance/marketing consult use your actual name or use a completely different name as the name of your business?
My full name (Melissa Culbertson) doesn't quite lend itself to something like "melissa culbertson communications"-- doesn't quite roll off the tongue ya know?! I thought of coming up with a business name ("insert word here" Marketing or "insert word here" Communications) but don't want to give off the vibe that I'm a small business with more than 1 employee. Does it matter? What have you done?
