>What I can do says far more than what a piece of paper says I can do.
The opposite of that is the issue we've been running into. What it says on paper (or our site) has prevented us from getting some big jobs.) Company A says "oh, you do Web design?" and I say "yes" and they say "oh, we're looking for a ASP.NET intranet, sorry."
But that's just why I'm putting so much weight on this. I've even considered changing the company name because it has "design" in it. (In my mind, "design" does not just mean graphic design, but process design, development design... but others don't seem to think of it that way)
>Do you like the guy?
Yes
>You defeat your own purpose if someone finds out that the "whatever MANAGER" is also the "whatever only employee for that task."
We have several sub-contractors as well as other resources, so he manages those teams. Not FT employees, but I don't think that makes a difference (does it?)
But now I'm leaning more towards "Business Solutions" or "Software Solutions."
Thanks for the feedback.

I had Guido and "Late Night Delivery God" below it on my name badge when I was the lead driver, and driver trainer at Domino's years ago.

LOL Racer X! I remember many times (in my misspent youth) when I definitely thought the pizza guy was the "Late Night Delivery god."

I kid you not. I still have the name badge too.
I still have people in my old neighborhood recognize me, and my house is in another neighborhood I delivered in, and I have had people gesture to my Buick GS350 (which is very distinctive), and say, "Um, did you deliver pizzas by any chance?"
