Business card slogan?

[chrystal baller]

I recently went to a vocational school and met with the graphic design teacher. She introduced me to a student who said he would make me some business cards. Because this is a school and there are no paid staff, I just pay for supplies. I was trying to think of a slogan to put on the card. I need something that speaks for itself and is easy to remember. I want something that sounds modern and sleek. Any suggestions?

ARE YOU READY ? ajjajaaajajj just kidding nah man not good at this stuff good luck though

"Deception at its finest"

"No strings attached"

"No, its not up my sleeve"

Thats all i can think of at the moment

 

[Between the Sun & the Sky]

"Your name" and his army of 52.

Heres whatever I happened to think of at the time:

"There is no spoon."
"The hand is not quicker than the eye; it just looks like it."
"See that object? Check your pockets."
"Will not vanish spouses for cookies."
"Ignoring rationality since [insert some date here]"

I'll edit if my brain's gears start ticking again.

I still think you should go with "No it's not up my sleeve". I thought of some others:

"Was THIS your card?" (best one ever)

"Don't ask me to pull a rabbit out of a hat!"

"I know what you're thinking about...."

"I fart MAGIC"

 

[Zephil]

Bah, just posting a second one:

"Where you see junk, I see a prop."
"No unsatisfied customers still in this dimention."
"I prestidigitate."
"Did you see it go? You did?! Even I missed that one."

 

[joshrobarts]

"A magic Experience"
" Twice the magic of Harry Potter without the ugly scar"
"More magical than a first kiss"
"Clap or i'll make you disappear"
"Modern Magic Miracles"

Some really good suggestions. Can I get in trouble legally if I use Magic Beyond Belief? It was what first came to me and I thought I had seen it somewhere (because it came to me so fast). I didn't realize it was from e until today (reason I made this thread).

Okay dude, hope you dont get mad at me for saying this (or anyone else for the matter), but why cant you try using a slogan which is "out of the box", or "unrelated" but still being related (if you get what i mean). Dont limit with describing words/nouns that represent magic/magicians, use a different angle/perspective, then many ideas will come. Its like "magic" this, "magic" that.

Its like taking magic to a personal level, then expounding it to the crowd. Then thats different. Anything goes.

Is it just me that thinks it's not a good thing to have a totally un-related slogan on your business card? It's like having something about plumbing on a photography business card. Sure it's out of the ordinary, but that doesn't make sense.

Just my two cents.

 

[chrystal baller]

I think he means something that does not necesarily have to be about magic but still applies. like the job of the artist is to convince the world of his lie.

any other suggestions?

In all seriousness... Anything worth using I'm sure people would keep to themselves. We may all be in show business, but it is still business!

Forget stupid slogans etc. Punch a hole in the card and print on the back: "I bet you 1$ that I can push a coin through this hole."

Your mark obviously won't be able to do so as even a dime (our smallest currency) is still way larger than the hole.

When the mark concents, take out a pen, uncap it, place the pen tip in the hole and then push said coin around the table.

When the mark laughs at his stupidity, tell him to take your card and fool his friends.

Done and done.

This effect comes with much thanks to Aye Jaye.
