COPIED FROM ANOTHER BOARD:

Its a Pool Management company out of Ocean City, MD. Called OC Pool Management.

I want something clean, but attractive that will look good on a business card/letterhead/website.

My extremely limited imagination came up with the O being a sun, the C being water, all overtop a nice little beach scene, but Im open to EVERYTHING.

If someone comes up with the logo I end up using, I’ll paypal them 50 bones.

GO!

um i can think of a lot of companys that are not “catchy” and i think they do ok

US Steel  
Pittsburgh Paints and Glass  
AutoZone  
Advanced Auto Parts

sometimes a descriptive company name is better then a “catchy” company name.

he tells his location and defines a general idea what the company does all in one name… Makes sense to me

Thats what i was thinking, but it might just be me, but i dont like the OC. I would think it would be better to spell out Ocean City (unless people in that area speak of the area as OC and not ocean city) i think of orange coutny or OCC when i hear just OC.

business 101- a business name should be catchy and stand out to your customers.

we are talking about Mike not a company founded on old money like US steel.

I got a name for it:

Darkstains pool service. “If we can’t clean it we are still taking your money, and chances are we won’t even show up cause we are all too stoned”

I feel this resource might be better help to the situation then quoting a non existant textbook.

i agree a catchy name sometimes helps out the business, I don’t think it will in Mikes case though

Simple. Sleek. Stylish.  
Story for the logo:  
The logo is basicly made of the letters “O” and “C”. The C being backwards but you get the point, also made it look somewhat like a eye. Due to the fact your going to be keeping a eye on peoples pools. :dunno:
