Afternoon Chuckle

Having a company name and logo is all well and good. But your slogan is what really makes or breaks you. Those few words that form a catch phrase or motto of a company give you the best idea of what they're all about. More, I believe than a snappy graphic could.

Especially in this case.

Take this local steel company.






Nice simple name. A nice little folksy image of a crane.



But all it takes is a little slogan thrown on there...



...to let you know they would probably be a lot of fun to work with!

That is fantastic.

Given the nature of our current jobsite, we often see trucks drive by with slogans such as "we're #1 in the #2 business" and "we'll take crap from anyone."

You gotta love a good slogan.

Ok funny story about this...
I worked for the largest international silicone company the US. the plastic silicone not the boobie kind.
Anyways thier slogan was
"Got Silicone?"
Like the milk add? Anyways I never really "got it" until one day in my free t-shirt from a charity event as I was running on the treadmill with DD"s did I REALLY get it...
Some really strange looks that day
