Copywriting slogan competition shortlist
Back in February we ran a slogan competition to come up with a world-beating slogan for Copywriter Collective. We received all the entries in the Spring but it has taken us a long time to get everything together and decide on a shortlist. Our apologies. We’ve just been too busy working for clients.
Copywriter Collective supplies international creative copywriters to companies and advertising agencies around the world. So we need a line that communicates the expansive service we offer.
Here is the shortlist (Perhaps inevitably, often more than one person has suggested the same slogan):
More than words – Yann Jones, Canaan Henderson & Joao Inacio
You have our word – Joao Inacio
Beyond words – Canaan Henderson and Mark Tiroa
Where words work – Angelo Brancaccio
Write for you – Arthur van Gemert
Write here, Write now – Don Huggan & Tal Halili
Words of art – Rhonda Delgado
A word apart – Federica Medori
How to vote?
We are handing over the decision on which is the best slogan to the Copywriters of the world. You can vote on our Facebook page You have until 9am Monday 8th December to cast your vote. Just choose from 1-8 and type that number in the comment box, only one vote per person. However if you share a link to the page, your friends can vote too! (But only votes posted on Copywriter Collective FB page will be counted.)
