Hmm, this is tricky. It's definitely something that you would need to spend a long time mulling over - after all, this isn't the sort of decision to make lightly, is it? Whatever you pick has to be memorable, concise, a little bit clever, and definitely not at all like this:
For all your perspiration needs! |
This shop's slogan is 'we know running'. Not only does that incredibly undersell their stores, it also gives the impression that the place is a consultancy. Without the logline, it suggests that bags of sweat are for sale. With it, it sounds like they give advice on what stretches are best before marathons. It's a terrible name.
Think I can't come up with a better one? Well, I can. I would have gone for something quirky like Legs on Toast, or, if they just sold shoes, Personal Trainers. You could even go for something sexy like Truth or Lycra - that one would appeal to the buff superhero buffs.
Seriously, go with any of those, and this shop would be every runner's first place.
I think, on this occasion, the name genuinely was 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration!
ReplyDeleteVery good! They should have taken that up as their slogan.
