One of the key factors to determining the success or possible failure of a business is the business identity as perceived by potential customers. It is essential before any printing or online marketing occurs that decisions are made on the following:
- Unique trading name for the business.
- Optional integrated business slogan or catchphrase.
- Font colour, size and formatting to be used for text.
- Optional business logo.
It goes without saying that decisions on a number of other items must also be made:
- Business address to appear on all printed material. For Company requirements we recommend you visit http://www.cro.ie for more information regarding legal requirements.
- Contact telephone numbers and fax numbers.
- Website domain name. We recommend .ie domain name registration through the IEDR as it identifies your business as being Irish primarily.
- E-mail addresses.
We will assist you in making a number of these decisions and also work with you to create a business identity that will help your business succeed. To get you started, we can offer the following advice when choosing a business name:
- Ensure the business name is easy to understand and remember.
- Choose a name that will be suitable throughout the projected growth stages of your business.
- Make sure that the business name is unique.
- Check that your business name is not conflicting with other Irish Trademark names at http://www.patentsoffice.ie
Once you have a suitable business identity, it is important that all printed material or online material use the same business identity to assist with customer recognition.
