As you are writing your tagline, here is a blueprint from some of the best.
1) Keep it Short and Simple! – 3-6 words.
2) Specific Instructions – What should your customers do?
3) Double Meaning – If you can play on the practical and the emotional, you’ll hit a nerve. In a good way.
4) Speak Directly. – Use “you” or a direct command.
5) Big Promises. – Now is the time to toot your own horn.
6) Know Your Customer – Taglines are used externally. It’s important to know what makes them move.
7) Appeal to Emotion. – It’s the sticky part of the tagline. It keeps the tagline in minds.
8 ) Grounded in Context. – While you are being emotional, remember to speak directly to what you offer. Otherwise it’s just fluff.
