“New Year Goodness,” as they are saying today in China. On the Chinese calendar, today (2/8/2016) is the first day of the Year of the Monkey. This made us think of our favorite businesses with a monkey in its name.

If you’re asked to quickly name a business with the word “monkey” in it, there’s always Survey Monkey. But at SmallBusiness.com, there is a “monkey business” we think about every day: Tinkering Monkey of Oakland, California.

That’s because we see their work on the wall of our office every time we step off the elevator. Tinkering Monkey worked with us in creating office signage for the customer media and content company Hammock Inc. (Hammock.com), the folks behind SmallBusiness.com. They not only impressed us with their “maker” skills—the husband-and-wife team behind Tinkering Monkey also impressed us with their savvy marketing skills. We were so impressed with Mike Cheung and Paula Chang, we featured them in a SmallBusiness.com article on how great their website and other digital marketing is.

Here are more businesses from around the United States with names just right for the Year of the Monkey.
