Buy the wise way

Sell the wise way

The "Wise" wordplays write themselves. Several of the ones above would be fine. Here are a couple extra ways to use it.

Start each ad/mailer with:
Wise Up! For _______, it's Martin Wise Realty.

And/or....in any copy you write, make sure you reinforce it
with still another way to use your name, such as:


"Affordability-wise, you can't lose."

or

"Service-wise, you'll do better."


Guess you'd call this posting... A Word to the Wise

Good Luck.

Martin,

THE RIGHT INFORMATION MAKES A DIFFERENCE...
even in basic name creation or "idea generation" establishing a starting point often requires establishing purpose. Taking the steps using the following information below will start, direct and lead that process in the right direction for you.

Deremiah says...
A business name should be the out growth of the market you are trying to reach. All names including "A new business name" must have some part or a lot of the following comments also made by my three expert friends who participate in our forum below.

williamarruda says…
"Your tag line should be 'catchy' and it should speak directly to your target audience and differentiation. A good place to start is to make a list of all the things that differentiate your offerings from your competitors. Then think about which of those differentiators is compelling to your target audience."

mgoodman provides these great suggestions...
"Who is the target audience? That's the most important input we need in order to help you with the name. Once we understand who the target audience is, the next question will be "What is the most important benefit they will realize if they use your service?" What makes you different from and better than your competitors?"

JBtron offers a great deal of insight on this...
"To really be successful with this query in KHE, your query demands answers to a number of questions regarding your product that will help guide the naming process:

-What ARE your USPs? Why would someone go to you v. any of the other businesses?

-Where are you located?

-What are the short- and long-term business goals for the company, and how are you going to market this new brand in a very large arena with few real players?

-What are your company’s Core Proposition and Brand Personality?

Core Prop: What makes you different? Tagline. USPs in a phrase.

EXAMPLE:

Bounty: The quicker picker-upper.

Brand Personality: Describe the product as a person. What is this person’s personality? Outgoing? Vivacious? Mysterious? Is this person an over-achiever? Friendly?

All these will lead to a series of statements, attributes and directions that are called a Creative Brief. With the properly developed Created Brief, virtually anyone can come up with a name that works."

This will get us started. By completely answering these questions it would make it much easier to provide you with a name that provokes your clientele to seek your business out over the others. Is there anything else I can do for you?
