GM, Nostr! What are we doing today?
I'm building a website for my husband's new electrical company, we're trying to figure out a name and we don't want to use our names, we're leaning towards Bighorn Electric and Solar or Bighorn Electric - Off Grid Solutions, thoughts? We live in an area that has a lot of off-grid and plan on targeting our fellow off-griders.

I like the name. +1 for not using your initials.
Thanks! His family uses our last name for every business they have!
I'm learning how to use Instagram and TikTok to start doing marketing for a client. Then I need to make a marketing schedule.
Good luck with Instagram, I'm slowly building our Instagram page and it's growing just slowly. Might help if I did reels but I've been super resistant to them for some reason. Hoping I can get over myself for my husband's business.
I am only doing it for work. I have zero need for either platform for myself.
Yeah I only tend to use it for our businesses and to keep up with friends and family.
You would be surprised how many views a reel can get. Also, do you have a Facebook page? You can instantly post the same content to both from Instagram.
As far as your original name goes, pick something you like. A local point of interest is always a good start. What is your area known for? We named our company after an old local mountain pass that is know for a rather large herd of elk and is a hunting destination in Washington. FWIW I really like Bighorn Electric. Might be the hunter and outdoorsman in me though.
We do have a FB Page...Currentlt working on integrating the accounts.
My husband is an outdoorsman as well, I actually did go through and just put different things for our area with electric and that's the one he liked the most, apparently sounds better than Pronghorn Electric or Jackrabbit Electric! 🤣 There is a lot of hunting in our area so it fits.
When I finalize our marketing I'll set up both a Instagram and Facebook accounts. Our area is pretty rural and Facebook groups seem to be the best way to get in front of a lot of people, that and word of mouth, which he already has some from the little bit of work he's done.
I'm thinking I'll take some video of the next install he does and turning it into a reel to start.
Do you sell your products for Bitcoin?
We will hopefully soon, I'm still trying to figure out a good way of doing it. We tried Strike, but we're technically South Dakota residents so we can't use them. When we can finally pull our address for our Arizona property we'll start using Strike. We're relatively new to bitcoin so I'm probably missing something easier to use.
You can run this app on your own private node.
I look into it some more but I'll also have to learn how to have my own node, total newbie! Thanks!
It may seem a daunting task, but nostr:npub126ntw5mnermmj0znhjhgdk8lh2af72sm8qfzq48umdlnhaj9kuns3le9ll makes it easier.
Or you can buy one of their nodea that are ready to go and are priced really reasonable.
I look into it more, thanks for the recommendations! I appreciate it!
