Non-registered Company name on Business cards.
I was hoping someone might know, if it is legal to put a name on business cards you hand out, or on a post card you send out a company name that hasn't been registered by you AND has been confirmed that it isn't already taken.
Basically, I am not ready to form a Corp or LLC of any kind just yet and will be buying/selling/financing under my wife and I's own name. However, possibly down the road I will incorporate.
But for now, I would like to have business cards made up that have a name on it. Even if its just something like Max Properties or maybe it could be a name with no part of my real name in it (ie. Real Estate Remedies) - and it has been confirmed as a name that has not be registered in my state.
Is this possible?
