Attempt to make things right

Thank you for the nice introduction, but understand that associating yourself with Jake V puts people on the defensive immediately. Yes, it is only because of the name but if you are doing business with him, then it is logical to assume that if people have had issues doing business with him then they could almost certainly plan on having issues doing business with you.

Sorry you did not know about the issues he had with people around here, but coming clean like this is probably the best way forward. Take the advise of Kracka though, change the name of the shop. You guys are in Lacross right, why not something catchy like, 'Cross Performance' ?

Yeah, if you own the company, why have it named after Jake? I like supporting local shops and all but as long as Jake's affiliate with that place, I can't/won't do anything to support that guy.

Good luck with the shop though I guess, it's probably a good feeling knowing you are atleast trying to start a business/shop and wrench for yourself, sounds fun!

That'd be great if that was how you actually spelled "Lacrosse".
