Hi Ron,

If you don't mind me saying - I don't think you need a slogan. Especially if you're trying to offer direct marketing services.

You see, it's been my experience that most direct marketing, unlike brand marketing, doesn't tend to involve catchy slogans and clever little ideas. If you were to use one, your clients might think that you're less qualified to offer them your services.

Some helpful advice from...

IF you offer your service through minisite or one page website then you would need a catchy phrase, else for a professional website i think no tag lines needed but a professionally designed website, logos and presentations.

I had a look at your site, and near the bottom of the page you already wrote a slogan: "if it can be done online...".

It fits nicely with one figurative meaning of dog in english: "relentless". Sounds a bit bold, however.

On the other hand if you are looking for a claim, try rewriting and summarizing the last phrase before "our services include". Should work, but I tend to agree with ghyphena's remark about the need for a slogan.

I'd be cautious of a company that offered all the high-powered services you mention and couldn't come up with their own slogan. Seems a little unusual to me.

I'd have to agree with this poster. What possible benefit would a slogan be? In direct marketing, a traditional slogan is not important, imo.

Strategy. Performance. Growth.

Whoever uses this slogan must be a direct response know-nothing!
