Any Ideas?


Everyone gave such great feedback to lawndart that i just had to see if anyone had ideas for a company sloagan for IRONMAN Plumbing Contractors. I really want something that plays off the super hero logo but i just haven't come up with anything that clicks.

"Saving the world one leak at a time" or something along those lines "power" "strength" sound good but i cant come up with a line.

any ideas?

I'd say you've got it right there, that's as good as anything else you're going to come up with, it plays off what you are trying to do.

Your one page website looks like a good start so far, was it professionally designed? I'd lose the link to your myspace page immediately, it's fun to look at the hot mom's you have on there, but I'm not sure customers are going to get much out of it.

Re: Any Ideas?


Have to agree with Mike here, two clicks and I'm looking at 1/2 naked chicks giving me the finger! Why would your customers want to see that? Why would you want your customers to see that, or your personal mail?

On the slogan: I like it, it's a keeper.

Re: Any Ideas?


Thanks guys...Yeah the myspace link is coming off. I guess i thought our space was awsome and that the other peoples pages didnt matter so much but you all are right...bad image.

Mike Finley...I did the page, our logo and image stuff myself. Its still a work in progress but it will do for now.

Vinylguy...that is funny i could actually see that as a part of a cheesy comerical.

thanks,

jen

Yeah...i dont know if you heard it on myspace but that is our song on there. From the moment we thought up our logo we wanted to use ozzy's song for some promotion. Don't know about the royalties tho
Just for the record alot of businesses in my area are on myspace now so thought i would give it a chance. At the moment we are getting about 75% of business off craigslist. If you missed it but wanna see it it is:

Woodmagman - The site is a free hosting from microsoft and that is the best to choose from their very limited selection of pics. We do mostly new construction so i figured it would do. I cant complain because we get the domain, email and site for free so... ill deal.

Underwear? What the heck are you saying there?

Re: Any Ideas?


I think you would crap your pants if you got info on the costs of using Iron Man from Iron Maiden, probably wouldn't be worth their time to even talk to you for less than $150,000.00 - $300,000.00 I'm guessing.
