Slogans are often used in advertising to catch people's attention and help them remember a company's name or product. When slogans are used to promote ideas that try to make the world a better place instead of selling products, they are called public service annoucements. You can probably recall slogans from television remindng you to recycle or avoid drugs. A great deal of thought has gone into creating a catchy phrase people will remember.
