When I was thinking about what to
call my company, I had some ideas and there were also many
ideas and suggestions from the family, but I have to give
credit to my husband on the idea of Field Cottage Designs. I kept saying I wanted the name to be personal
and MEAN something, not something like "cheapwebdesign"
or "greatwebdesign"
- those were just too generic.
So he asked me,
"Well, WHO are you catering to, WHO is your target
audience?" So I replied, "Well I want to target Artists,
small business and ministries, you know basically the cottage
industries, not BIG huge companies" So the "Cottage
Industries" answer triggered the light bulb and he said
"Wasn't your childhood house called Field Cottage?"
And so it was Field Cottage Designs; it meant
something to me; it showed I was catering to the Cottage
Industries; it was a done
deal.
