Digital communication nowadays is full of noise and distraction, yet email remains the most direct way to catch the full attention of your recipient. Every single day countless emails are sent directly to valuable business contacts: customers, prospects, vendors, partners, investors… A simple and effective way to increase the effectiveness of each email exchange is an email signature.
If you’re still wondering why you should set up an email signature for your business, we’ve listed out 5 important reasons you should consider.
1. Email signatures easily exert professionalism

Emails that end with a proper signature simply looks more professional and trustworthy. It shows your recipient you have put in time and effort to provide helpful contact information and useful links. Most importantly, they can verify your identity based on the information you have provided.
2. Email signatures make it easier for people to contact you

As email signatures are automatically attached, make sure that the information you provide is always correct and up-to-date.
3. Email signatures can bring you new followers on social media
Linking to the social media profiles of your company is a way to promote them. After a pleasant email conversation, people tend to show their appreciation through social media.

4. Email signatures make your brand and logo recognizable
Email signature is a good branding tool for your company. Adding your company logo to your email signature increases its brand awareness among people you communicate with, as your email signature is displayed in every conversation you are involved in.
Showing brand identity in emails is highly effective, as email recipients will actively read an email, in contrast to when they respond to other branding approaches such as newsletters, display ads, etc.

Last, but not least: an email signature is your personal digital business card, which demonstrates your professionalism and your personality at the same time. You have a lot of latitude in choosing the design that fits you the most.
