Name

I need a name for my propagation business... anyone have any ideas?

If I told you my idea than you would use it and I wouldn't be original anymore

You could just use this formula:
The name of your first pet + the name of the street where you grew up = the name of your prop business.

Assuming you want the url as well

fragkenstein
nemosgarden
coralchaser
fraginstuff

I'd ask for a few frags in return if you use them but the postage to the UK...

Fraggle Reef.... oh, wait, that one's taken.

Whatever you name your company, just try to remember that the more striking the name and simple the name, the more easily people are going to recall the name of your company. The same goes for domain name registration. That's why names LIKE "Saltwaterfish.com" work (because the name says it all with no frills) and "Fraggle Reef," too (it draws humor from the 1980s Jim Henson show but is still simple and catchy).

G'luck!

wait, wait...I have it.... ReefyPieces

:-D

Doahh · #11 06/02/2007, 12:00 PM

I'd use piece of the reef but someone already copyrighted it =(
So what would a 2 head trumpet coral frag sell for?

hatfielj · #12 06/02/2007, 05:06 PM

reefypieces is good

Doahh · #13 06/02/2007, 06:55 PM

Reefypieces is good sounding

Doahh · #14 06/02/2007, 09:39 PM

well I now have 4 shrooms that are 2 inches when fully opened... if I left one and fragged the other 3 into quarters how long would I have to wait till they are circular again?

BristlewormKing · #15 06/03/2007, 06:32 AM

Depends on the type of mushroom, some species heal faster than others. Maybe a month to become circular and develop mouth - I have had yumas with foot and mouth portions that have taken two months to recover.

Good luck!

to what extent are you going to formalize this?

Going to create an LLC? or just a sole proprietorship with a registered copyright and tradename?

just curious to what degree some of you other fraggers have formalized your business entity and why?

Doahh · #18 06/03/2007, 02:09 PM

It's not going to be super formal but more than the standard hobbyist
