One of the first actions you could take when you have a new idea is to think of a name you could call your new business. I found that this action can come easily to you and other times it takes work.
I walked five days a week and found the action of walking along side the road (without a music device) a way of finding a "quiet space" to ask myself or the universe/god the question of "What business should I do?" I did receive an answer and of course I didn't like it so I asked again. I wanted to do a business that I could have earning me money whilst I slept and if I was sick and massage was a hands on therapy. I couldn't see how this fitted with my desires. The same answer came back so I gave in and then asked "Well what shall I call my new business?" The answer of Bodysense came back and so my new business doing massage called Bodysense was formed.
The next step I could think of was to register the name. I went into the Office of Business Registration armed with the exciting prospect of this name which had been "told" to me and filled out the forms. I passed the form over and the young lady began to process it and she then returned it stating the name was too similar to another for the process to continue.
Now many people could allow this very small hiccup to stop them. I say try, try again! If the bumps in the road stop you here, you are allowing yourself to have your dreams be taken by someone else. I believe a car business (not a human body) had a name similar so I had to add more.
Bodysense By Shaz was registered. I picked Shaz so I could hid it in small print as I only wanted BODYSENSE to be noted. My sister felt 'By Sharon 'would have been better?? We can't please everyone.
I was on my way, armed with my bit of paper saying my business was registered and as I had an ABN registered in my name I could start trading.
