MenuWe are a workspace provider and are looking for ideas of taglines, our key USPS are on demand, instant and convenience, any ideas?
Current tagline - work from anywhere... It's too vague right
Answers
Likely best to setup some phone conversations with people here you find provide advice which seems to resonate with you.
USP may be useful + likely better will be to buy highly targeted traffic (to local area) + also use Meetup + other networking venues.
Search for my name + Meetup in Clarity + likely you can take what you find + generate a highly lucrative lead gen system.
Taglines that simply state benefits or features were in vogue at what point, but branding has evolved to more evocative taglines.
And, quite often taglines are benefit oriented not feature oriented. So, if your features are on demand, instant, and convenience, what is the benefit to your audience? Can you survey current customers, and find out what using your space enables?
Is it productivity and convenience? Or is is credibility? Or perhaps it's "no borders" because they can do business anywhere. It's impossible to come up with a good tagline based on a few lines--but listen to your customers, and you can start down the right path.
You may have answered your question. "On-demand, Instant and Convenient" could be your winning tag.
If I expect that a workspace provider will make it easy and convenient to work from anywhere, I'm questioning the "U" in your USPs!
Your tagline should make the client the hero of the story. So you could step into stories like "Be effective anywhere" without modifying your service.
But I'm thinking like a client. If I can choose between many workspace providers, I want the one where I feel at home instantly: that's what will make me productive, effective and happy. So I'd buy, "Work from home, everywhere" (or "Welcome home") - but only if you embed meeting my "homely" needs into your service, building up a profile of my tastes and preferences, thinking how the service can feel like arriving home when I step through the door and so on.

Business partner I want to bring on will invest more money than me, but will be less involved in operations, how do I split the company?
Cash money should be treated separately than sweat equity. There are practical reasons for this namely that sweat equity should always be granted in conjunction with a vesting agreement (standard in tech is 4 year but in other sectors, 3 is often the standard) but that cash money should not be subjected to vesting. Typically, if you're at the idea stage, the valuation of the actual cash going in (again for software) is anywhere between $300,000 and $1m (pre-money). If you're operating in any other type of industry, valuations would be much lower at the earliest stage. The best way to calculate sweat equity (in my experience) is to use this calculator as a guide: http://foundrs.com/. If you message me privately (via Clarity) with some more info on what the business is, I can tell you whether I would be helpful to you in a call.TW

What happens to a convertible note if the company fails?
Convertible notes are by no means "earned." They are often easier to raise for early-stage companies who don't want to or can't raise an equity round. Equity rounds almost always require a simultaneous close of either the whole round or a defined "first close" representing a significant share of the raised amount. Where there are many participants in the round comprised mostly of small seed funds and/or angel investors, shepherding everyone to a closing date can be very difficult. If a company raises money on a note and the company fails, the investors are creditors, getting money back prior to any shareholder and any creditor that doesn't have security or statutory preference. In almost every case, convertible note holders in these situations would be lucky to get pennies back on the dollar. It would be highly unusual of / unheard of for a convertible note to come with personal guarantees. Happy to talk to you about the particulars of your situation and explain more to you based on what you're wanting to know.TW

Is it ok from a brand perspective to have different color schemes for your logo for different purposes?
Building a brand takes more than a logo. With that said, consistency is key for obtaining a competitive advantage that speaks to your market for longer. I would recommend against using different styles and colors for various purposes and instead maybe avoid using in lieu of the logo use maybe instead borders or patterns that use your logo's or brand colors. The idea of a logo is to engrave a mission or product into potential customers when they simply see the brand or logo... Once a logo is pushed and promoted you can strengthen that image by enforcing the brands colors through different materials or media :)HV

Is it standard practice for a product and company name to be the same? Should our product and company name remain the same?
The main advantage of having the company and the product/service sharing the same name is that it is much more cost effective to build the brand in the early stages. You also need to consider what relationship any future products are going to have with your first (if any) - do they complement, compete, same markets/customers, etc. Generally, you will be better off by keeping the names the same. Think about how you pitch your company vs the product - is it a different story? Which name do you want people to remember? Think about where the names would live - business cards, urls, websites, app (icon), signage, etc. There are countless successful examples of different brand naming structures that work - there is no "best" way. Keep it simple. We wrote a book on naming and identity design a few years back. Happy to send you the first chapter pdf to see if it can help. Dann Ilicic WOW BrandingDI
