When a company wishes to get itself recognized, what does it do? It takes on a big advertising firm, to market itself and its products. And what does the advertising company do? It comes up with creative slogans that will make the prospective customer take a second glance at it. So, what goes into coming up with these slogan ideas? Let’s find out in this MarketingWit article.
Creating a Good Company Slogan
Most advertising company slogan ideas come out of the AIDA technique. What is this AIDA technique? It is an acronym for the four tiers that business advertising campaigns evolve from. They are
A-Attract: ‘A’ttract the Attention of the prospective customer towards the product.
I-Interest: Create an ‘I’nterest in the mind of the customer about the product.
D-Desire: Once the interest is created, see to it that there is a ‘D’esire in the mind of the customer to own the product.
A-Action: If you’re successful in creating the desire in the mind of the customer, the ‘A’ction of buying the product, on the part of the customer is the next logical step.
Apart from the AIDA technique, there are also a few other details that an advertiser needs to keep in mind when drafting a slogan.
- The first thing that you need to keep in mind is the needs, requirements and expectations of the client. The client will definitely have an idea of what he wants his product to be portrayed as. So, take your first cue from this and go about setting the tone of the slogan for the product.
- If the client leaves the entire task to you, then you need to examine the product in detail in order to come up with the different appeals that you can attribute to the different features that it possesses.
- Then, you’ve got to determine the audience that you intend to target with the slogan that you plan to coin. Missing this step can prove to be quite detrimental to the advertising efforts. This is because when you plan a campaign, you need to be able to relate to the people that you ultimately want to sell your product to.
The use of appropriate language, keeping in mind the presence and dominance of colloquialism in the different areas that you want to promote your product, is another factor that you must remember. Using language that a majority of the population within your target audience does not understand (no matter how ingenious it sounds) will spell disaster (literally and figuratively).
So keep these points in mind and you’re sure to come with some really fascinating slogans. For now, let us see if we can come up with some good company slogans ideas. You never know, they could end up like so many of the famous slogans that we see today!
