Company Name

I've been a little frustrated at work, and I've been thinking about starting my own freelance design firm. I did some digging, and filing the paperwork is only $40, and it's pretty straightforward, so I think I'm going to do it. Kinda nervous, but mostly excited. This doesn't mean any changes for my current job, but could be lots of fun on the side.

In my head it's primarily interiors, but I'm also open to graphic design opportunities as well.

What do you think about naming the company Redcliff Drive? I'm picturing it on a business card With Redcliff Drive across the top and something like "design house" underneath.

Re: Company Name

  • I like it!

    I would love to start my own company again and be able to do it full time!  I want to be my own boss!

  • I like the name.  Fingers crossed it all goes well so you can do that full time in the not too distant future.

  • That's exciting! I've been solely freelancing for the past three years and love it. Thought I'd suggest this link since you're just getting started, it's full of great freelance advice and I think I may be lost without it :)

    As far as the name, I like it, except for the silly association that I have with it. My doctor's office is on Redcliff Drive, haha :) I hate so much that I always associate names with other people or places - drives me crazy!

    That's awesome! Thank you :-) I actually went with Redcliff Drive because it's the street our house is on. Since it's where the work will be happening, it seemed to fit. But I imagine there are quite a few other associations out there for it.

  • That's awesome, Brie! Good luck! I hope it works out and you'll get to either be happier having something on the side or get to leave your job!
