Many successful businesses have a catchy slogan—a short, easy-to-remember phrase that embodies the company's brand. It’s usually paired with a logo. Before you commit to new marketing materials, such as business cards or fleet graphics, use these tips to create a slogan you can be proud of. 

How to Create a Memorable Slogan for Your Business

1. Stay Short & Simple

You only have a few seconds to make an impression, so your slogan needs to be short, simple, and relatable. Keep it to less than 10 words—less is more. Slogans are typically only one short sentence, so avoid over-explaining and complicated words. 

2. Keep Your Audience in Mind

Area customers might understand inside jokes about your city or region, but tourists may not. Before you decide on a new slogan, pitch it to focus groups made up of current customers. Take their feedback to heart, and don’t be afraid to listen to their suggestions.

3. Be Honest

Your slogan will represent your business to the public, so it needs to be honest in what it promises to customers. Avoid phrases such as the best or No. 1, which may be untrue and can seem like bragging. Focus on what makes you different from your competitors, and emphasize that message in your slogan. 

4. Don’t Be Afraid to Use Humor

Some of the most memorable slogans incorporate tasteful humor into their messages. If your brand isn’t too serious, think of ways to poke fun at yourself or your services without being demeaning. When the humor is sophisticated, it will make your slogan stand out.
