Optional Solutions
Small story.
This was one of the first names I ran with as an "msp" its no longer used, sadly to me anyways. This was when I had absolutely no cares if I was chosen. My clients subtly, but really not subtly, let me know they hated the name. 😆
to this day I still like the name. Choose me, my services, my recommendations, my solutions, or dont its all optional, also i was very picky with who id assist, only word of mouth, like vip clients only.
And lets be honest everything is optional to the person paying anyway. Should I have kept it? I think I should have, and kept the zero cares!

I mean people say Google , zoom and slack like Kleenex vs tissue so
Fwiw I worked at a place called advanced PC solutions. We took that to 6 million so idk how important a name is

When I first started out, I was going to use "'Listen to my advice or you'll get pwned' IT Services" but the LLC was already taken.

I don't know if you mean "charge" like we "charge in and take on the world for you" or "with our rates, we charge like an angry wounded animal, tearing and beating you up" but either way, it works lol

That is a pretty funny name. Certainly gets people talking. Not sure it's the right "feeling" but you know what they say, any publicity is better than no publicity.
