Post Suggestions for card slogans...

I went to apply at a new gym today (that was empty) and I got embarrassed when I was asked if I had a card.

What slogans do you guys suggest? I dont want to have something cheesy or common.

I live in Florida, I am NASM certified, I am Italian/Irish...I dont know, just throwing out some things about me that may help.

Their asking for a card seems really odd. Sure, maybe it would be a good idea considering your line of work. But for them to ask for one (you're applying, they clearly will have all that info on the application materials) is just dumb.

In conclusion, any gym that asks for a card at the time of application is probably filled with a lot of other stupid, nonsensical crap.

The place has a joint ownership. One wasnt there (the one that I was told to talk to) and the other one was busy with other shit in the back. So, she wanted a card to call me back.

why do you need a slogan?

I find that stuff lame.

Just put your name, what you do (ie title) and your credentials.

That IS pretty good actually. It sounds a bit personal. I almost thought it was a pick up line at first.

Slogans are nice and all. Kinda catchy sometimes ... but cash is better. Name, credentials, and some kind of offer maybe?

I agree.

I think the slogans clutter the card.

Maybe something like your name, credentials and title on one side and then on the other side lines to write the date and time of the next appointment.

or, for people you are solliciting, on the flip side it could be something like "good for a free fitness assessment."

something to that effect.

Like I said, it couldnt hurt. If its not a cheesy or common line and it doesnt crowd the text, why not?

Another idea would be something IN another language, but I dont know any other language.

If you guys dont like lines, what about pics on the card? Most of the trainers around here have their physiques on cards. Some look pretty shitty, some are from shows, but some look interesting. This big black guy that I know thats a trainer, hes always doing athletism kind of workouts and on the card, he looks like hes doing a balance + core + resistance movement. No one else has that.
