Hey guys,

I am a teacher and have a ton of free time in the summer so I am wanting to start up mobile detailing again. I did it in high school and a little on the side now, but really want to ramp it up over the summer. My question is name ideas. I have a few kicking around and would like suggestions on a few.

Crusader Professional Services (The wife came up with this one and I don't hate it :laughing:)


North MS Mobile Detailing (Obvious location in the name)


Razor's Edge Auto Detailing


My last name is Taylor but I couldn't come up with anything using it that really stuck out to me. I am definitely open to anything else that is catchy.


Thanks in advance guys.
 
A name is always extremely challenging for whatever reason, I think we tend to over analyze it and then make it too difficult to remember or “roll off the tongue.”

If you go with the name your wife came up with, it could allow you to broaden your services.

Pressure washing services maybe? Decks, siding, fences, driveways etc.

Lawn care? There’s a guy on YouTube who does mobile detailing(generally washes and waxes, interior) but not paint correction. He then locks in some of his clients with regular lawn maintenance(grass cutting and some basic landscaping).

Exterior home projects? Maybe some basic handyman work.

Not sure just spitballing for you!

Me- I’d maybe do something with your last name, it rolls of the tongue and personifies the business name. Maybe use your first name instead? I like these those..

You're part of the classic holy trinity of employees (teachers, law enforcement, firemen - as in, "The cost of living is so high here. How will the teachers, firemen, and police afford to live." While I guess everyone else can go eat rocks.)

Oh, I'm sorry, where were we? Yeah, that's right. You paid the price of having your mind blown and nerves trashed by a classroom full of kids half the days of the year. It's time to reap the benefits.

Years ago where I live, two guys decided to finance their college by starting a moving company. They called it Two guys in College Will Move You. After they finished college they kept the business and the name because it worked so well.

I would suggest you call your business Teacher on a Break Detailing. If you're a good detailer, no way it would fail.

Only problem I can think of is that Taylor Made Golf may go after you for trademark infringement if they stumbled across your name.

Go chase your balls, Golf boys. Lol

But, I suppose if they wanted to kill one little business, it could be possible. :(
 
I really like Taylor Made Detailing - very catchy. I think the businesses (golf and car detailing) would be so far apart in terms of the industries they service that it would be fine to proceed with the name. Besides, I think their name is TaylorMade (no space)......and a quick google search netted several Taylor Made businesses (burgers, designs, etc).
 
I hate all the names you suggested but I don't hate Taylor made as I was going to suggest the same thing.
 
And anybody that details boats knows that all the glass is made by Taylor made.
 
Since the service of detailing a vehicle doesn’t exactly amount to having “made” anything.. How about having a personal detailing bag made for yourself? From there you could name your business “Tailor Made”

You’ll have alot of people who think they know the meaning behind the name, but in reality they don’t know jack, because only you’ll know the real meaning is based on your personal detailing tote, and because it was handmade by some tailor it will last forever like a good pair of Red Wings.

Your great grandchildrens grandson will still be using that same tote bag to carry his polisher around hundreds of years from today.. Because it was tailor made by an actual tailor. Made to last forever, just like your business.

How’s that?

I would stay away from clever and what sounds like your trying to place your business with a name. Focus on a name and graphics that make a potential customer feel comfortable with you.

A lot of people would feel comfortable having a school teacher on their property or working on their car.

I knew a fireman years ago who had a side business doing small concrete jobs. His quality and prices were nothing special. But, the guy always had all the work he wanted. Just word of mouth, "I know a fireman who does concrete work...", not "I know a guy who does great work," or "I know a guy who who does that for a really good price."

I also know of a high school teacher in town who does handyman work. I saw his prices once and nearly dropped my $h_t. But the guy always had work. People just felt comfortable dealing with him.

I would go with it.

Ha! your tag line could be something like 'Free 5 minute algebra lesson with every detail.' JK. But, if you are going to be clever or cool, I would do it in the tag line.

Focus on making people comfortable to get you in and your work to keep you in.
