I have a small cleaning business (4 employess plus myself) and I'm thinking about changing the name. The name I have now is realy not very good although I've been using it for over 12 years. In those 12 years I have not done very much advertising or promotion. Some people know of us but it's not exactly a household name. Most of my work comes from word of mouth, yellow pages, and gov't contracts. From anyone who has changed thier business name, I'm wondering what sort of things I should consider or be aware of before I go for the change. I know how to go about doing the change, I'm just wondering about any legal or business headaches I may not be thinking of. or any drawbacks to changing a business name 12 years in. This is a sole proprietorship.

btw, the reason that I want to change is becasue I came up with what I think is a VERY good name for my business and I would like to start advertising more, letter up the van, etc...

The current name is QMS. I know its not good. It just came about from a previous busines I owned. The new name I dont want to say until I register it. I really think it is an excellent name so I dont want to give it away.
