New Episode: “How to Use Your Email Signatures to Generate More Business”
Donald and Sigstr Founder/CEO, Dan Hanrahan, talk about a new way to capitalize on employee emails as a marketing channel. Dan highlights 3 important features of a great email signature template:
1. Keep it simple

  • No need to include your address in your email signature
  • Have a link to your website
  • Think of the 3 or 4 things that have the most value and hone in on those
  • Skip things like address and fax numbers but make them easy to find on your website

2. Use images wisely

  • Be efficient
  • Reserve the images to what’s most important (logo, call-to-action)

3. Drive consistency to fuel brand

  • Provide a consistent experience across all formats of your brand

The major takeaway:
“Think about the massive reach and impact of employee email signatures. Whatever you do, make sure it’s a compelling brand experience because every single message can impact your brand positively or negatively.”
