I have a name in mind for my business but how do I find out if it's already taken?All I know to do is look in the phonebook but I'm sure I have to be more thorough than that.Also,I need a design and logo but don't know where to go for help in that area.I assume I should call an advertising agency but there must be 50 listed in the phone book yellow pages.I would prefer to use someone locally so I can sit down with them and tell them what I have in mind.I've seen some really nice logos on this website and sure could use some help. Thanks.
