• I’ve written innumerable taglines, sold a bunch, and seen them help define brands in various industries.
• They’ve provided the foundation for all
marketing communications for brands that have seen tangible increases in sales.
• They’ve defined brands for years on end.
• And, for what it’s worth, they’ve garnered me a few awards for creative advertising.
• It’s not a science, but there are some tried
and true steps that I use that you can follow to guide your law firm’s brand
