GD&T Advertising Slogans

[axym]

I'm putting together some GD&T marketing materials and I need a catchy slogan. Here are some of the possibilities I've thought of so far:

1. "Y14.5? Why not?"

2. "It's The datums, stupid."

3. "How to find your true geometric counterpart"

4. "Everything you always wanted to know about simultaneous requirements but were afraid to ask"

5. "We'll help you locate your feature of size"

6. "Concentricity - Just Say No"

7. "Encouraging tolerance in the workplace"

8. "Who are Fritz and Plahtz anyway?"

9. "Finding your own inner boundary"

10. "Improving your coaxial relationships through greater tolerance"

11. "If you see this datum rocking, don't bother knocking"

12. "True position? You can't handle the true position"

Evan:

Please let me know if the slogans help attract new customers and I will give it a try.

Seriously, I have lost 75% of my customer base where I have presented GD&T training over the last 22 years. They were primarily automotive suppliers and that segment of manufacturing have either gone out of business or are struggling to hold on. Any type of training is just not in the cards for existing companies in our area right now.

Good luck!

Dave,

Sorry to hear that things are lean where you are as well. At least you're in the right part of the country to practice GD&T. For some reason, I'm trying to do it in a town where the main industry is tourism.

I hope you enjoy the slogans. I am actually writing marketing materials, and was noticing how difficult it can be to make GD&T sound cool. It always seems to come across as nerdy.

My posts are starting to get a bit edgy lately, so I thought that I would try to lighten up a bit.

Good ones, guys. Here's another one:

"Datum referencing - the ultimate contact sport"

This isn't really a slogan, but it's a funny one that almost made it into one of my consulting brochures. I caught it in proofreading:

"After GD&T training, the students often need professional help"

What you need is some PSA's that show the heart wrenching results of improperly toleranced parts... Missing limbs, broken bones, etc.

Scare your audience into submission!

ModulusCT,

Yikes, that's a lot more extreme than I was thinking. I prefer to bore my audience into submission!

How about Round up... Round down.. that is the question.

Nerdy, Evan? GD&T? Am I missing something here?
