Business people: Is "consultants" a good word to use in a business title*?

I am thinking about starting a small business with another person. We would be providing experts on different subjects to our clients. I wanted to use the word 'consultants' in the title. Is it a good word to use these days or has it gone out of favor?

*Something like "Adams Accounting Consultants"
The "Accounting" part above is just an example – it's not an accounting business. Sorry for any confusion.

I have been self employed for 20 years, and this is my take. I would not visit you for service. Why- I would rather hire a CPA
I can get the same info from a CPA and then CPA is also liable for the information he gives me. If I hire a CPA for my yearly information, I basically get information all year round. I don't think it is a good idea for small business, but for large businesses they like big words.

  1. I would use it because the word describes the business type in its name.

  2. I think it sounds good. If you don't like that, then you could use "Specialists" or something of that affect.

  3. I am a recent business school grad. From what I learned, every single one of my professors considered themselves a consultant in one way or another, and it is considered more of a free lance, or in your spare time kind of title. I would maybe get rid of consultants and say Adams Accounting Service Experts, or something to that effect. This way ti sounds more like a full time job.

  4. Definitely i work in a office where many companies have suites on one floor and many of them have consultants as part of their company name

  7. Why not just use a business name and a "tag line"
    Something like:
    Adam & Eve
    "Debt Consolidation Experts"

  8. Would sound way better than advisors.

  9. Yea its ok, means you have a team of experts or if you don't want to go that high, 'advisors' works well
