We are Tin Shingle!

Hey! We made it to our new name change! You probably read our announcement about it, and then we got some questions from people, so we made a video to answer them. Here's what you'll find in the video:

  • How does this change effect my membership? 
  • How will people find us on social media?
  • How do I reach you in general?
  • Are PR Leads and Media Contacts changing?
  • Knowing you two, do you have other cool news? Are the classes changing?
  • Why the name Tin Shingle? It's so different from your other name...
  • Is it a shingle, like, on a roof?
  • The logo - it looks like wood, not tin? Why is that?
  • What is the new main website URL?
  • How do you co-founders Katie and Sabina feel about this change?
  • Do you have a new language for this new name? Like new nicknames?

The "why wood?" question was a big one, so we made another video about that! 

What you'll find in this video:

  • The Cliffs notes on how we got the tin concept, and how we decided on wood.
  • The full story. Our BIG 2 requirements when selecting the name for our new name and trademark (hint: Legal + Domains).
  • There really is a tin shingle in Katie's basement!
  • Company names we looked at to discover how they came upon their names: Google, Etsy, and arie.
  • Our inspiration: the Gold Rush era.
  • The phrase "hang your shingle" is one we loved, and how we combined it with tin.
  • Got the name - now starts the visual brainstorming.
  • Sabina's "meh" test
  • Do you need a storefront to have a sign/shingle?
