Running a Partnership Firm Solo: What Should My Business Card Say?

Naveen.capricorn
Dear All, I am running a partnership firm in my father's name, but the firm is managed by me only. What designations can I put on my business card?

You say you're running a partnership firm in your father's name. Given it's a partnership, there must be more than just him. Are you the other partner, or is it someone else?

If You're the Other Partner

- Your designation = Managing Partner
- Your dad's designation = Partner

If You're Not the Other Partner

You'll have to accept the designation the partners authorize you to use. These could be Chief Operating Officer, Chief Executive Officer, General Manager, etc. Because, legally, if you're not a partner, then either you're a consultant, employee, or have another special relationship with the partnership.

Hope this helps!
