Morphology
The meaning is directly and predictably derived from combining 'catchy' (attractive, memorable) with 'slogan' (a brief phrase); together they clearly denote a memorable phrase used for promotion. This adjective + noun composition is transparent and cross‑linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Catchy slogan creates a clear picture: a short phrase called a slogan that 'catches' people's attention like a hook, so it is catchy. Advertisers repeat these words so they stay in your mind, which is why the term means 'easy to remember' and 'attracts attention'.
