Hi, just found this and am hoping you can HELP! Wanted to start a blog- sounds like fun.
Problem: Went to Payperpost – sounded easy enough for starters, kept getting:
URL did not respond in 15 seconds (tried repeatedly…) Please check the URL.
Tried with “Payperpost” but can't seem to contact anybody. Their FAQ section doesn't help.
What am I doing wrong…. or, not doing something I should be???
Thanks so much.
Ina

“Maybe what I'm really dealing with is just being myself publicly rather than it being a naming issue.”

Ya think?

Thanks for your comment, Suzan. Looks like it helped you to write out your thoughts—I'm glad for you, because that means you're growing in the right direction (I almost wrote “write,” heh…).

This is a great article! I was actually been debating about my blog name--decided to google it and found your article. I was in the corporate world for a number of years and have had my own business. While I've had other business names in the past never of them ever quite took. So I've generally used my name (Suzan Bond) which always seem to "take" and has some brand equity already.

Friends and even new acquaintances who know very little about me or my brand. My name, like a brand, is already known for a few things: an uber people person, smart, witty, creative and professional. (This is what I've been told)

I also tend to have a memorable personality. And, on top of that I already own the domain for my name. What's the concern you ask? I'm beginning to transition from an executive/career coach and hr/organization development consultant into a writer and documentary film producer and who knows what else.

So...

1. I want something that is specific to me but generic enough that I can repurpose if needed.

2. I'm concerned about using my real name and the impact that might have on the consulting I do right now as I transition into my new career. The kind of writing I do is in the memoir genre. Now I don't write mean-spirited things by any means but I do have a very confessional style. Part of my goal is to inspire others--particularly women--to follow their own path.

Maybe what I'm really dealing with is just being myself publicly rather than it being a naming issue.

Hope all of this makes sense. Thanks again for a great article Michael
