- 7-Up – The uncola
- Alka-Seltzer – I can’t believe I ate the whole thing!
- Wendy’s – Where’s the beef?
- Allstate – Are you in good hands?
- California Milk Processor Board – Got milk?
- L’Oreal – Because I’m worth it
- NBC – Must see TV
Your business and brand can have just as powerful an effect on your prospects when you develop a catchphrase or tag line that is not only memorable but communicates a benefit.
Take a look at those catchphrases again. What benefits do they imply?
- Sanyo – live better when you use Sanyo products
- Allstate – we’ve got your back, we’ll keep you protected
- L’Oreal – you deserve the best, and we’ll give you the best
Developing your catchphrase or tag line can be organic … you find yourself saying the same phrase naturally and become known for it. Or it can be strategic … you craft one that specifically communicates your brand’s benefits in a memorable way.
My advice: Craft your catchphrase purposefully and it will serve you well.
