Effective Slogans
Advertising slogans often play a large part in the interplay between rival companies. An effective slogan usually:
- states the main benefits of the product or brand for the potential user or buyer
- implies a distinction between it and other firms' products - of course, within the usual legal constraints
- makes a simple, direct, concise, crisp, and apt statement
- is witty
- adopts a distinct "personality" of its own
- gives a credible impression of a brand or product
- makes the consumer feel "hot" or...
- makes the consumer feel a desire or need
- is hard to forget - it adheres to one's memory (whether one likes it or not), especially if it is accompanied by mnemonic devices, such as jingles, ditties, pictures or film
