Email Signatures

Using Email Signatures for FREE Advertising

You may already be aware of this technique, but if not you will love it.
The mail programs in most all browsers allow you to create signature formats that you can automatically or manually add to each email that you send out. If you go to the "tools" area, you will find that you can add a pre-formatted "signature" to all your emails.

We use Internet Explorer, but most browsers handle the job about the same. You can choose to have your "signature" added either to all messages or individual messages. Here's an example of a signature that we have used successfully:

Internet Explorer Users - Automatic Signatures

To add a signature to outgoing messages:
On the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Signatures tab.
To create a signature, click New and then either enter text in the Edit Signature box or click File, and then find the text or HTML file you'd like to use. You can create many different signatures to use on different occasions.
Select the "Add signatures to all outgoing messages" check box.

Note:
To use a signature on individual messages only, make sure to clear "Add signatures to all outgoing messages". Then when you compose any message you would like to add a signature to, on the Insert menu, point to Signatures, and then click the signature you want to use.

Manual Signatures
More people use the auto-signature than the manual method, but we want to make sure you realize this more effective method is available. It's also easy to use, and some people prefer to manually add a signature. Remember that we said a "Signature" is just a small quick-hitting advertisement. Any small 2 or 3 line paragraph can be considered as such. The name signature probably came up when the original designers thought it would be nice to save some time in signing off every time they sent an email. They may not have even envisioned how far agressive marketers could take a single idea. The reason we said "preferable" above is that a manual signature is more flexible and effective. Remember the sample signature that we showed you on the previous page?

Well that would have to be inserted as a manual signature. Why? Because
Ebay Beasttamers Club! is intended to be a link (it's not a working link in this discussion). In other words, that phrase would be hyperlinked to your opening web page so when anyone clicks on it, they are taken to the first page of your sales pitch. Most auto-signature systems won't do that, so you would have to use the exact URL in the signature. This isn't always as motivating as a line of "selling text". Let us show you what an auto-signature of the above may have to look like.

The auto-signature tool works fine, and as an "automatic" tool it has huge advantages (in not forgetting to manually insert the signature), but it's not as esthetically pleasing as the first example. This method can be typed right into your auto-signature system, but the first example would need to be typed into some text holder (or even just an email in your drafts folder that you don't plan to send) that allows hyperlinks so it can be copy/pasted as you need it.
