SOS - HELP MY BOWLING COMPANY!!!!!!!
« on: September 12, 2005, 01:15:42 PM »
Hey guys, i got this assignment for my Graphics Class where i have to make my own fake company and market it, etc.  I had to choose what my company would make, so it only seemed right to go with bowling balls.  I had to choose a name for the company, and settled with Alien: Dare to Defy.  I know it's not that great, and it's a rip off of the elite alien, but i don't care, it's the best i can come up with............ So what im asking for is that you, the bowlers, help give me some names that i can give to my balls and what condition they be used on, once again i know it's quite corny, but hey, better bowling than anything else   Space themes would be cool seeing in how the company is Alien If you take this seriously it WILL BE TURNED INTO A WEB SITE AND YOU CAN SEE SOME OF YOUR IDEAS COME TO LIFE - once again thanks

Maybe the ultimate hooker could be the black hole?
It'd go something like this:

The Black Hole: sucking up everything in it's path!

........wait, what about oil?!, i may have to rethink that!

Uranus is the obvious one, but i don't think anyone would want a ball named after a planet, just look at the crappy names:

Mercury
venus
earth
mars
jupiter
saturn
neptune
uranus
pluto .........not to appealing, well in my opinion anyway

Those? That's nothing. At one time I had about 200 names I had come up with. Since then, about 50 or so have actually come about.

 You could also go with technical names like

1. Horizon

2. Azimuth

3. Terminus

 Or you could just pirate the names of the space shuttles. Or satellites (voyager, sputnik etc...)

  Naming balls is just a gimmick.  They always told me I had a gift for things like that.

i'll get in-deapth for what they could be like.

Reality - Solid Reactive, core similar to that of a morich ball, so asymmetric. Ball pics up roll in the mid-lane well and has an explosive backend, like something "out of this world". Great for med-heavy lanes.

Fantasy - Name says it all, this ball is so powerful, it will leave you thinking this cant be real, and for all we know, its not! Particle cover that will grab more of the lane in the early/midlane part of the lane than any previous ball. Its cover surrounds the same asymmetric core found in the Reality, but unlike the reality, the power simply cant be put to words, it can only be achieved in ones.... fantasy .

Keep the name Alien, but instead of spelling it out on the ball, have a picture of the Atom logo with a capitol A in the middle. Here is your slogan: "Alien Bowling Ball Company - Blowing up the pins at the subatomic level".

thanks for all the input everyone!

Rodney you're stuff was really cool, and i appreciate it, but you're really taking over my job, you can go ahead and do universal bowling products, but i'll stick with mine and take ideas from what i find appealing,

p.s. This is gonna be really cool when it is all said and done!

once again, thanks for everything, plus if you haven't said anything don't hesitate to!

Oh, I have a spare ball idea . . . You could call it "The Little Green Man" and put a little alien guy inside of a clear ball.
