Every company starts from a name, logo and slogan. Actually creating the name was very challenging, because it is a start of a brand and the reflection of the business activity. Our company, which was dealing with paper stationery, changed a lot of names before we found the one. As I remember we had fifteen names and from them we were choosing four names and from those four we have chosen the right one, which was Friendly Folder. In real business practices you should check your name uniqueness in the finnish trade register: www.ytj.fi.

After creating the name, our next step was to create the logo of the company, which would be with us all four months of our activity. The ideas and opinions were different. First we wanted to have a smiling folder as our logo, but then we changed our opinion and put the circle of people on the folder, which reflects the international character of our group. The slogan was born easier, as we knew already what we want in our slogan: "Friendly help towards your business". The name appears from the character of the product, the main type of product, the line of business. For example, our main product for sale were customised and ready-made folders, that is why we decided to use the word "folder" in our name. One of other practising enterprises was dealing with shea butter cosmetics, so they called their company Sheaplanet. Here your imagination does not know any bounds!

After having a name, the company should decide on the company form, for example it was mutually decided that the form for our business is Legal Liability Company. The legal documents should be in the right order as well. The company would receive help from the teacher in fulfilling them. At the end of your company´s activity and before the final presentation the company should have the whole folder of legal documents. The main legal documents are:

1) Start-up notification

2) List of shares

3) List of shareholders

4) Shares

5) Articles of association

6) Memorandum of association
