How to Write Standout Slogans with ClickUp

ClickUp helps you build a repeatable, strategic workflow for writing memorable slogans so you never have to rely on random slogan generators again. This how-to guide walks you through a practical, step-by-step process you can follow for any product, campaign, or brand refresh.

The approach below is based on the process behind AI slogan tools but gives you far more control and consistency. You will learn how to collect inputs, structure work, collaborate, and refine ideas so your taglines actually connect with your audience.

Step 1: Capture Brand Inputs in ClickUp

The strongest slogans start with clear positioning. Use ClickUp to organize the core details that shape your messaging before you write a single line.

Set up a ClickUp list for slogan projects

Create a dedicated List in ClickUp for your slogan or campaign work. This becomes your central place for ideas, research, and approvals.

• Name the List something like “Brand Slogans & Taglines”.
• Create one task per product, service, or campaign that needs a slogan.
• Add team members and stakeholders as task assignees or watchers.

Add custom fields for key slogan data

Turn each task into a compact brief using ClickUp Custom Fields. This keeps all the important information in one view.

Helpful fields include:

• Target audience: Who you are speaking to.
• Brand voice: Three to five words that describe the tone.
• Main benefit: The primary promise or outcome.
• Emotion to evoke: How the slogan should make people feel.
• Character count limit: To keep options short and scannable.

Fill these out before any brainstorming. This mirrors how AI slogan generators ask for inputs, but ClickUp keeps the data reusable for every future project.

Step 2: Turn Research into a ClickUp Brief

Next, collect the context that shapes the direction of your slogan and store it where the team can easily find it.

Create a ClickUp Doc for each slogan

Inside each task, create a connected Doc. Use it as your working brief, idea hub, and presentation space.

Structure your Doc with simple sections:

• Product or service overview
• Competitor slogans and examples
• Customer language and common phrases
• Brand story and positioning notes
• Constraints (legal rules, words to avoid, etc.)

Paste in real-world slogans from competitors and highlight what works or fails. This mirrors what AI tools implicitly learn from large datasets, while keeping it transparent for your team.

Use ClickUp comments to refine the brief

Mention teammates in Doc comments to clarify direction:

• Ask marketing to confirm the main benefit.
• Ask product to verify feature details.
• Ask legal to flag restricted words.

This feedback loop ensures that everyone is aligned on the same inputs before writing slogan options.

Step 3: Brainstorm Slogans in ClickUp

With your brief ready, you can start generating a wide range of ideas inside ClickUp instead of bouncing between separate tools.

Use ClickUp tasks to manage ideas

Within your slogan task, create subtasks or checklist items to organize directions, such as:

• Benefit-focused ideas
• Emotion-driven angles
• Short punchy options
• Descriptive, clarity-first lines

Under each subtask, list raw slogan ideas. This keeps experimentation organized and makes it easier to compare entire creative directions at a glance.

Apply a simple scoring system in ClickUp

Add a few more Custom Fields to rate ideas directly in your workspace:

• Clarity score (1–5)
• Originality score (1–5)
• Brand fit (1–5)
• Shortlist (Yes/No)

As you and your team review options, update the scores. This gives you an at-a-glance view of the strongest candidates without losing the full brainstorm.

Step 4: Collaborate and Edit in ClickUp

Now refine the best slogans together, using ClickUp to streamline comments, revisions, and approvals.

Gather feedback with ClickUp comments

Paste shortlisted slogans near the top of your Doc and invite stakeholders to leave line-level feedback.

Encourage them to comment on:

• Whether the line is easy to understand instantly.
• How well it matches the brand voice.
• Whether it feels distinctive from competitors.
• Any legal or cultural concerns.

Resolve comments as you address feedback, so everyone can see progress and avoid duplicate discussions.

Track approvals with ClickUp statuses

Use simple statuses on your slogan task to show where things stand:

• Drafting: Still brainstorming.
• Review: Stakeholders are leaving comments.
• Revisions: Updating based on decisions.
• Approved: Final slogan locked and ready to use.

This visual workflow is more reliable than scattered email threads and ensures your final line is clearly documented.

Step 5: Test and Document Final Slogans in ClickUp

Winning slogans are often tested, iterated, and reused in multiple campaigns. ClickUp makes it easy to track performance and keep everything documented.

Document final slogans for reuse

Create a central Doc or separate List in ClickUp called “Approved Slogan Library”. For each final tagline, log:

• The slogan text.
• The product or campaign it belongs to.
• Links to supporting assets (ads, landing pages, etc.).
• Notes on where it can and cannot be used.

Link each entry back to its source task so the full decision history is always available.

Track slogan performance in ClickUp

If you run A/B tests or campaigns using different taglines, add results as Custom Fields or attach reports to the relevant tasks.

For example, track:

• Click-through rate (CTR).
• Conversion rate.
• Ad recall or brand lift survey results.

Over time, this data helps you learn which types of slogans work best for your audience, improving every future project you run in ClickUp.

When to Use AI Generators with ClickUp

Sometimes you may still want a burst of inspiration from an AI slogan generator. The key is to treat it as one step in a larger ClickUp workflow, not a standalone solution.

You can reference the original guide on AI slogan tools here: AI slogan generators overview. Use its ideas for prompt structure, then bring the best outputs into your ClickUp tasks and Docs to score, refine, and approve them with your team.

Next Steps: Build a Repeatable ClickUp Slogan System

Once you have run this process once or twice, turn it into a reusable template inside ClickUp so every new campaign starts with a solid structure.

1. Create a template List with all the fields and Docs described above.
2. Save a default task layout for new slogan projects.
3. Standardize your scoring and approval statuses.
4. Train your team to start every slogan assignment from this template.

This gives you the consistency of an AI tool with the nuance and control of human creativity. Your brand voice stays cohesive, and each new project becomes faster than the last.
