Need a one liner explaining why 'details' are important

[TechBoyJK]

I need a simple one liner for a business card for a design company with the name 'details' in it to use as a tagline.

I was thinking like 'pay attention to details' but that doesn't really explain why.

Like.. the internet is all about information, you go to websites for information, and 'details' are what's in the information that make it useful.

thoughts?

Because "close enough" rarely is.

Because the big picture IS details.

Because "Details" is all of our middle names!

Win.

Just as good as one of my personal favorites, "Common sense isn't."

Did you hear that somewhere? That's good.

Details make the difference

I've used that for decades.

It's my "philosophy" about all things work related.

Bookkeeping and accounting classes used to drive me to the brink of insanity...especially with Excel...I'd spend hours chasing those lost pennies that Excel "loses" in calculations...

"Gawd-damn it! The check figure is $15,678.34...I get $15,678.32...where are those other 2 cents?"

I've cut it three times, and it's STILL too short!!

Details are the difference between "I'm going to eat, mom" and "I'm going to eat mom."

Thanks guys. Some good ones!

What i had in mind though was something more about the definition of details

details 'An individual feature, fact, or item.'

I like this one 'Because "close enough" rarely is.'

But I'm not sure if it relates enough to the word itself. It explains why it's important to pay attention to details, but I think they want something that hooks on what the word itself means.

What's the complete company name?

 

[Jaepheth]

"DeTails"

And then have a picture of Tails from the Sonic Franchise wearing a leather jacket and sunglasses while chewing a toothpick and looking bad-ass.

Just don't get caught by Sega's lawyers.

There are plenty of ways to tie this to details...

But then again, since I'm not expecting to be paid for this consultation...feel free to choose something else.

Details. I have none.
