Good point!
Not to be a party-pooper, but I got the impression that catchphrases are
a bit 80's? Does anyone buy into that type of pitch anymore? I mean,
when was the last time you swallowed a line like "Power, Performance,
Productivity" from an eager and straight-faced salesperson?
Isn't is considered more effective nowadays to choose a memorable and/or
non-geeky primary name? Something like Amber, Wilson, Laguna, or, uhhh,
Dude?
An alternative would be to combine something retro with something new:
perhaps a resurgent pseudo-hip phrase like "get it on!" might work? It's
reasonably low key, fun, and works great in conjunction with a name ~
"Get it on, with Amber!"
Well, perhaps that combination isn't so great
:-p
