Starting a lawn care business is always a great idea because wherever you live, this is one business you can make money with regardless of how many other lawn care businesses are in the area.
The fact is that many people would rather pay someone else to do the lawn work rather than doing it themselves, so you will certainly be able to find customers.
Even if you advertise with an inexpensive advertising method like handing out flyers, you’ll have more lawn care jobs than you can handle, but one thing that all business owners need to consider is what should I name my new business?
Coming up with lawn care business names may sound simple enough, but it can be a little difficult in coming up with a name that someone else did not already use.
When you go to register for your business license, a lot of cities will provide some way to search the name you are thinking of to see if someone else has already used it.
If the name is available, it’s yours, but this all begins with thinking up a name that is unique and will stick in someone’s head and be easy to remember when the person is in need of this type of service.

How Do You Choose the Right Business Name for Your Lawn Care Business?
If none of the previous names resonate with you, please don’t panic as there are still options to come up with a business name that is memorable to those that will use your service.
Here is a list of ways to make choosing a business name a lot easier for you.
First just think of words you want to communicate to your future customers when they hear your name.
The word should describe the service itself in addition to the feelings people might feel after they use your process.
Try to write down as many of these words as you can, and once you have a whole list of them, take a look at that list and start to strike off some words you simply don’t want to use.
If you like, you can even wait until the next day to be able to focus on your list even better.
Next you can ask mom and dad, a sibling or a couple of friends what words they would come up with if they were writing the words you just wrote.
Once you’re down to about 5, 10 or so words, then you can start generating the actual name of the business.
Just keep in mind:
- Avoid a name that is overly cute or playful.
- Keep it short and don’t include multiple words.
- Say the title out loud so that you’re comfortable with how it sounds and looks.
- If possible, don’t use multiple letters.
- Do not use any generic terms; in other words, be specific.
Your objective should be to create a name that is sufficiently unique to be memorable but not so ridiculous that consumers will not take you seriously.
Using plays on words is fine as long as the name does not end up being too corny or goofy.
Key take away: More than just words, you want the name of your business to manage an impression, an image or a feeling. Preferably the feeling they will feel after they have used your service..
Final Thoughts
On the bright side, now you know there are many words you can utilize in your business name that will resonate with your customers to give them the correct impression of the business.
As this is not a decision to take lightly, just be sure to take your time to make sure you name your business as best you can so when your potential customers are planning an event, they think of you.
Who knows, you may have this business for a long time, and you don’t want to be in a position at the end of the day to have to explain a business name later!
