Personally I don't like it.

I might not be one to judge though as we don't have one!

The clue is in the thread title

 

[static zap]

Think slogan.

Have I missed it , the slogan .
Or is it one of those "catchy words or the day"
beats a brain worm from local radio-Jocks!
...oh Now the title makes sense ...
I'm Empowered ... (went out of fashon 22 years ago )

I think that could get confused with the PM Mrs "May."

Title of the thread

Mmmmh! If we tell you what we think will you tell your missus the truth?

 

[Rpa07]

I still like the Ribena advert - zibbidu, zibbidu, zibbidu, zibbidu zibbidubidubidu! Ahh!
Perhaps that could be the slogan - just change a couple of letters so you don't get into copyright issues!

 

[Rpa07]

Plumber near me, on his van has -
"When your boiler goes down, we turn up" NAF!

It's got to be good or not at all.

 

[sparkdog]

Bit like an ad for ever ready batteries.

Never tell others your problems because 10% don't care and 90% are glad you have them.

Is that your suggestion for an alternative strapline?

 

[Richard Burns]

I would say that it is slightly too long and takes time to interpret, the rhyme is OK.
You could probably shorten it to "powering the way" or powering the way forward.
It seems similar to "power to you, is what we do".
Having a strapline that promises no restriction on providing solutions could be a risk.
Generally acceptable and would be mostly ignored, unfortunately, but it may also be better than not having a tagline.

 

[chris day]

Thanks for all your comments guys I think it's naff as well, glad I never put it on uniforms and vans else it would be like the tattoo you wish you never had

 

[Leyland30]

How about loosing the last bit, keep ' powering the way'.

Less is more sometimes ...
