Gönülle gelen yürekle gidiyor
Turkish to English
Art/Literary
Other
This phrase was used to describe the customers of a storage facility service in their web page company blurb. As the writer introduced the company in unavoidably flowery terms, all suggestions from the very mundane to flights of poetic fancy would be welcome ("Customers come willingly and leave heartened" was the pathetic best that I could come up with)

Willfull Visit, Lovely Welcome!
Burda bence sloganım tasarlanmasında çok önemli bir eksik nokta var. Bence müşteriye hitap eden bu tür sloganlarda "gitmek" fiilinin kullanılması çok yanlış,
Yani gönlünle geldin yüreğinle anca gidersin gibi nerdeyse :)))
Bu sloganın modifiye şansı varsa modifiye etmenizi tavsiye ederim
Bu durumda da önerebileceğim alternatif
Gönülle gelen, sevgiyle karşılanır!

| Kesinlikle katılıyorum - seve seve kaçıyormuş sanki müşteri! - ama slogan olmadığı için, ve yazan kişi yazdıklarından memnun olduğu için bana sadece çevirmek düşer... |

| Thanks - this would be perfect if the website was promoting a place of worship or something, but unfortunately doesn't sound quite right when referring to warehouse customers!!! |

Dear Sophie,
I had a second opinion from my Irish wife before I posted my answer. Actually, she thought it was very catchy. She gave the thumbs down for others. she said "Goodness me, no!" to be exact.

I think you have misunderstood my sentence. It by no means implies that you're delighted to leave or saying farewell to anyone".

Note from asker:
| Thanks - same inherent problem mentioned by Terjuman - the whole concept of being delighted to leave or say farewell just sounds rather strange! |
