There's a couple guys on here that have companies like you are talking about. jkelly and jraboin are 2, both from CT, which you probably already know.
I feel like board pusher wouldn't be a good option, it just seems weird.
Good luck to you, though! I look forward to seeing/purchasing your stuff!
Oh, and I wouldn't feel bad about using name already on zazzle. The "owners" of those names will probably never even know about your company if you plan on keeping it small. |

I have some decks up a www.deckpeck.com ...
they are the guys that started popdeck.com
it's still heat transfer, but it's a start. and no startup costs like Boardpusher.
But if you have the up-front, it's always cheaper to get a quantity of them done at once.
Hit me up if you want some graphics.
oh yeah - regarding the name .... My thought is, if some kid thought up the name, or you see it lots of other places, it's not unique enough. Pick another name.
Did you do a domain search? a "whois" search to make sure it's not taken? |
