Which number is best for a shop name?

For retail footfall and quick sales: 3 (attraction and communication) and 5 (energy and footfall) are favourites. 1 suits a flagship/boutique brand, 8 suits jewellery or premium stores, 6 suits family-run service shops.

How do I calculate my shop name number?

Use the Pythagorean chart (A=1...I=9, J=1...) on the full name board as displayed, sum the letters, and reduce to a single digit. Our calculator does this instantly.

Does changing the signboard spelling change the number?

Yes - the name as customers read it is the name that counts. Minor spelling adjustments (e.g. 'Kart' vs 'Cart') are a common way to shift the number.

Shop Name Numerology

For a shop, the name on the signboard is a daily advertisement. Shop name numerology assigns each letter a number and reduces the total to a single digit that describes the store's energy - whether it attracts footfall, builds trust, or projects premium value.
