PeachyDoodle Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 One of my closest friends has connections to a winery and has decided to start a new business offering private wine tastings/art projects -- similar to those "paint-and-pour" places, but hers will feature adult coloring books and be hosted in individual homes. She's looking for a catchy name, and I promised her the Hive never disappoints. Give me your best! :lurk5: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UCF612 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Oh I'll think on it...but I'm terrible at this (I still enjoy trying though!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anne in CA Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Just wanted to say that what you name your business has a lot to do with what kind of customers you get... I named my sandwich shop Pure Country Biscuits, and I get country people who like biscuits, they are soooo great. I LOVE my customers. Make sure your friend chooses a name that "good" people will like, lol. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spryte Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Uncork & Color or Cork & Color are my favorites so far. Any chance they'll have champagne? - Pop!Art 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeachyDoodle Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 I really like all these ideas! But now she says she is thinking she'll keep her business strictly to wine tastings and partner with other companies to offer different add-ons (e.g. Mary Kay, massages, etc.). She already has a partnership with a coloring book publisher; that's where the coloring idea came from. But this will give her more options and more marketing outlets. So the name should focus on the wine/liquor aspect. She's thinking about Wandering Spirits. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will it be more of a 'vendor blender' - where different vendors display items & the wine tasting will accompany that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, like, a Mary Kay party with facials and whatnot, accompanied by wine tasting. I'm sure she will have wines available for sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me. :tongue_smilie: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clementine Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I would have her look into how being associated with other MLM/pyramid companies might affect her business. I am totally turned off by them and would be less inclined to do an 'art night' if it was also an MLM sales pitch. JMHO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
