Note - to clarify at this point - for our purposes when we say "firm" "design company" "your design firm" or "design firm" we mean your web development/design brand, NOT your animal/whimsical company. So we'll distinguish these by saying "firm" for the design firm and company and/or "mascot" or "animal" or even "fun" or "whimsical" site for your website that incorporates a business idea and products, and is named after your mascot.
Here you'll create your design/consulting firm brand - starting with a subfolder within your course folder. All your other pages (not in the subfolder) will point to this one in their footers, where it says something like "Page designed by YourName Enterprises" where the YourName is your design firm name, and is linked to your firm. You may have done some of this already. Also put a link to this page in the footer of your Whimsical Company site.
Come up with a design/consulting/development firm that has your name in it. So for John Jackson it might be Jackson Enterprises, or JJ Unlimited, or something like that.
