Your potential inspires us to create software that helps you reach it

I'm no marketing expert, but I'd think there would be general rules against making long winded and awkward company slogans.

the only things that suck worse than their products are everyone else's products :beer:

I had to Google that to see if it was for real. It is! Unbelievable.

I don't know how it could be topped. That's astoundingly bad. If a second-year marketing student turned that in for an assignment it would get a C.

I despise "Can you hear me now," because in EVERY office telecon I have, someone pulls that line and thinks they're funny and original.

pick any direction, as long as its forward

wtf

 

[ShotgunSteven]

Far too wordy. That's the kind of drivel you put on posters that you hang up at the company itself.

Huggies: We keep sh|t where it belongs, in a pair of non-biodegradable underwear clinging to your childs lower torso.

Lets face it though, all of these slogans are crap. They're just crummy one liners to try and make the company sound good.

What? What did they say? My potential makes Microsoft reach for my what?

 

[JulesMaximus]

That's really bad.

"What can brown do for you?"

 

[otispunkmeyer]

you can do it when you B & Q it

(B&Q is like the UK version of Home Depot)

Hehe, that is good. 🙂

Could a slogan possibly be any clunkier? How about, "Microsoft: Your potential is that which we seek to optimize, software-wise." Or maybe, "Microsoft: We create software because you have potential which subsequently inspires us to help you achieve it, `it' referring to your potential."

 

[ShotgunSteven]

Ask yourself this: Do you want your potential to be Microsoft's passion? In my brain, the concepts of "passion" and "Microsoft Office Systems" occupy entirely different lobes. In fact, if I need to quell passion, I chant, "Microsoft Office Systems, Microsoft Office Systems," until the moment passes.

Better than a cold shower, that. :laugh::laugh::laugh:

"We keep thinking about X because we want you to think about a Ford" or something like that.

I'd imagine some of the engrish ones are hilarious too. I had a shirt "CREATOR" I bought at a fleamarket in the balkans, out of china. I forget what the motto was, but I remember it being hilarious and very long.

I saw one of those TV ads this morning and said,

"Well, what do you expect from the company that brought you flying people."
