My last name is cumbersome and I wanted to use an easier name for people to remember (and spell correctly), so I took out a trade name license and started The Silver Branch (named after the magical apple branch in celtic mythology the faeries would give to bards to instantly inspire them). With a trade name license, at least in my state, I can access whole sale companies, advertise more efficiently and come up with cool logos and actually put a trade name to my collections. Downside is, I have to claim everything I buy and sell on my income tax.
But it does work. I've found more clients through my business name than I ever did as just a person. And the wholesale access rocks. 3nodding Now if only I could find a wholesaler who sells polymer clay....
