As an accounting graduate with no money and no connections, how do I start my own consulting firm? And how do I get clIents?

To become a first rate consultantt, become a first rate pro, before anything else.

If you are bright enough, get a position in a premier accounting firm. Get 10 year experience, a sound one. In the meantime, develop an effective network and prospect clients.

Then and only then, start your own consultancy. Good luck!

Should I change the name of my business after criminal allegations against one of the employees and business name mentioned in the media?

From a Branding standpoint, you should never chaNGE your business name IN THE CURRENT SITUATION. If you do it, it will BE perceived by your consumer as a guilt recognition and/or na empty marketing empty tric - na empty tric..

Use this critical moment as an opportunity to improve your brand relationship with stakeholders: ACT as a good person, responsible and oriented to people well-being.

On the other hands, improve your brand identity to comunicate that it is a "true brand" or that you are more and more connected to stakeholders. Call me and i will give you more directions to improve your brand.

Is it ok from a brand perspective to have different color schemes for your logo for different purposes?

BRANDING IS NO A BLACK AND WHITE FIELD. iT IS ART AND SCIENCE. You need experience, as I have after more than 30 years serving small to large brands

The idea of a fixed color for a logo is valid for medium or large size corporations. A start up may be smart and client focused.
The logo color is an instrument to talk to the customer heart. As long as it is consistent and planned in advance, a logo may have a color palette (an expessive one) and use it according to diferent audience. There is exempoles of Fortune 500s logo that follows such policy, for exemple: Apple, Citi, Coca Cola, Yahoo, Googlr.

This is what I call the Camaleon Law. In America, use red and blue, in Brasil, yellow and green, and so on.

I will be very happy to give you insight about how to build an effective brand identity.

In what cases should one consider changing the name of their business?

A name is an achor. It gets stronger as the time passes as your brand equity grows. The decision "rename!" is imperative only when it becomes an objective imperative. Otherwise, there are several ways to overcomes minor issues. There is no general rule, each case is a case. Please let me know more about your name and business reasons to rename. I will be more than happy to help you Marco Rezende

What is the best way of coming up with business name ideas?

When it comes to Naming an existing business we have to be more right to the point. No BS.
My recomendation to you is keep alive the DNA of your current name and revitalize it.
How to do it?

Alternative 1. Hire a Naming professional, someone with an impressing and relevant portfolio.

Alternative 2, Create yourself a new name: "scramble" your current name, combining letters and silabes. In hours you will get several name possibilities, hundreds.

Make a first selection,Ccheck the legal and domain names, Check the linguistics in all your future markests idioms. When you have the 10 possible candidates get my consultancy for a profisional evaluation. Then, take a firm decision. The dame is over. Les jeux sont faites.

Go ahead, you got a new KODAK brandname!. Enjoy !

Will re-naming a health care practice affect its branding and organic online ranking/search results?

A new brandname is associated with a new entity. If you do not want ti lose your past brand recognition, plan ahead. well in advance, inform your stakeholders about your renaming process. Keep both names - the old and the new - living together in your web messages, for at least six months. A well planned and executed renaming process is the key to keep your practice healthy. If you want to know more, I will be happy to help you. I have a strong backgound on health brands.

Would you pay a mobile app designer with a percentage of profits in the future if you don't have the cash to pay upfront?

After 40 years managing designers, I have a diferent point of view.
First class designers are not gamblers. I do not know any reliable designer that will accept a risk condition and sustain the drive to commit himself aoo%.
Do not make such an error. Invest in design and your start up will give your expected future profit.
If you want to discuss my view, do not hesitate to call me.
