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?
