8 tips for creating construction slogans

The following eight tips can help you create a construction slogan that suits your business.

1. Consider your target audience

‌As with any messaging or marketing you do, your target audience has to be at the center. Without creating something relevant to those you want to target, you are fighting a losing battle.

You need to be very clear on your target audience so you can adapt accordingly. If, for example, you plan to only market your services to locals, it is okay to use local slang in your slogan.

However, if you hope to branch out more, some of your target audience may not understand what your slogan means. Therefore, the clearer you can be on who you wish to advertise your construction company to, the more relevant you can make your slogan.

2. Be clear

‌Many companies like to use a play on words with their construction slogans. This is not a bad thing as it can actually be very humorous. However, it can also be a slippery slope.

If you would like to do the same, remember that what makes sense to you may not make sense to everyone. Ask some trusted friends, family members, or colleagues for their opinions before finalizing your slogan.

If you get a good response, put your idea to work. However, if most of those you ask do not get the joke, it’s best to move on to other slogans.

3. Keep it simple

‌It’s important to understand that reading your slogan takes time out of someone’s day, and people’s attention spans have decreased over the years. If your slogan is too long or complicated, there is a good chance that no one will read it. If they do, they are less likely to remember it.

Imagine driving down the highway and seeing a company’s billboard. If it’s short, you can glance at it and understand the words quickly. If it’s too long, you might not be able to take it all in, at least not without swerving off the road. 

Your slogan should be front and center on your construction company’s website. If your slogan is too long, people may scroll past it and struggle to get a sense of what your company is all about. 

The fewer words it takes to make your point, the better. Ten words or less typically provides plenty of space for creativity without losing your audience’s attention.

4. Make it evergreen

‌Working with seasonal, special, or limited-time events is great for your social media, but your slogan should be timeless. It should make complete sense throughout the year for as long as you are in business.

Consider Folgers’ “The best part of waking up is Folgers in your cup.” No matter the season, this is still relevant for all coffee lovers. You want your construction slogan to be just as timeless so that it locks into the audience’s mind and creates relevancy.

5. Use humor or sentiment

‌Some of the most memorable slogans make people laugh or evoke some type of emotion, inspiration, or memory. For example, Nike’s “Just Do It” sparks inspiration, and it is known around the world.

If you can create some type of emotional or inspirational attachment to your slogan, people will remember it for a long time. And, if you can cause someone to laugh, that person will not only remember your slogan but also likely tell it to a friend.

6. Consistency is key

‌Your slogan should complement everything about your brand. It needs to flow with your logo and adequately represent your company and your crew. By keeping your marketing consistent across all avenues, you are helping to cement your brand’s image into your audience’s mind.

7. Be honest

‌You want to make your company sound great, but you don’t want to overpraise yourself. It is better to under-promise and over-deliver than it is to over-promise and disappoint.

While making your construction slogan, be kind to your business. Point out something positive, but keep it tame. Don’t say anything that you are not sure you can live up to every single time.

8. Make it as unique as your company

‌You are not like every other construction company out there. There is something unique about your products, your services, your crew, or something that goes on behind the scenes.

To stand out in a crowd, utilize that uniqueness. For example, if you use an environmentally friendly process, you should work that into your slogan and your entire brand image.
