I like Fred Griffin's answer. I see business pages with no mention of the company's service area or location. Makes no sense to neglect that information.

If you own your own real estate brokerage - brand your company name. If you don't own your brokerage, don't do that:). 

If you don't own your brokerage use Sandra Graves Real Estate Services, or Sanda Graves Sells Homes, something along those lines. 

When using the term REALTOR®, make sure you use it according to the trademark rules NAR has set forth.
