I still think Superclean Carpet Care  is the best one. So long as you are not in the same state as the other guy, you should use it.

Think about what makes your business unique.  What separates you from your competition?  Maybe it's a commitment to quality; maybe it's affordable prices; maybe it's low quantity-high price, maybe it's customer happiness above all else, maybe it's professionalism, maybe it's friendliness, etc.

Sure, we all want to be everything I just listed, but in reality, every business is unique, every business has strenghts and weaknesses.  Your business is unique, just like you are unique.  Think about what your vision is for the future of the business, what your corporate "culture" will be.  How do you want your customers to perceive you?  All of these things will help you figure out who you are, and who you're not.  Once you've got a handle on this, start thinking of words that describe you.  Distill your vision down into chunks and eventually you'll find words that fit.

Alternatively, you can use your family name, which gives an air of personal attention and customer service, but it limits you in the future, when you start hiring non-family employees.

Stuey,

you are a newbie as i am.  I am not necessarily a newbie to the industry, but definitely a newbie to this forum.

Spend about an hour going through the different posts and see what you can learn.  That should give you an idea of the industry/stress/headache you MIGHT be getting yourself into.  The easy part really is a name, as long as you have a strong marketing plan, do good work, are professional, and TARGET your market you will be fine (despite your name, within reason).

TARGETING YOUR MARKET IS THE MOST IMPORTANT.  read around and see what i mean.  i dont want to spend 20 minutes here explaining it.  do your research on that subject.

work out your target customer/income
do you want to be cleaning homes that are OWNED by people or RENTED?
do you want to clean carpets that are well maintained or trashed?
do you think it better to clean at $10 per room or $40 per room?
would you prefer to have to clean 3 houses a day or 10 houses a day to make a comfortable living?
if your business name reflects cheapness rather than quality you will have to work a lot harder to make the same money.
Dont treat people like customers. Treat them like friends.

particularly if all you ever want to clean is the tightarse, scummy rentals who dont give a sh*t about the carpet and want the cheapest carpet cleaner they can find.
be prepared to have to do 10 houses a day every day to feed and clothe yourself.

If you want a short name, to the point, and an eye catcher, that tells a story, and removes all fear to call you.......... BUDGET CARPET CLEANING

Really anything with "Superclean" is going to get attention.

You could use "Power Clean" when a regular wand won't get the job done
