I was recently asked to s!eak at the nline /etailers /oadshow in 0erth and &risbane "ovember

2315. $he com!any that is arranging this event are /eed 6hibitions in %ydney. I s!oke at one of their

events a few months ago and I have to say, they are one of the most well organised event com!anies I

have ever worked with. Along with making me feel incredibly welcome and su!!orted as a s!eaker,

the digital !romotional materials they gave me were !henomenal. ne of which was an interesting

image to insert into my email signature. 7hat a fantastic idea and a great use of the hundreds of

email communications coming in and out of my inbo daily.

I was also recently asked to be a guest !anelist on the 9%mashing the :lass (eiling’ $elesummit with a

number of business e!erts Australia wide and I suggested to Annemarie (ross, the host and!roducer, to create a gra!hic for my email signature. %he did so and as I went through the !rocess of

inserting it, I documented it so I could show you ste! by ste! how it’s done.

; %!ecial offers or a discounted !roducts

; 0roduct or service that is key to your business

; Awards or recognitions

; 7here you have been featured in the media

If you have used your email signature in an interesting and engaging way, !lease leave me a message

below. If you do follow the ste!s and insert an image into your email signature, do a screen grab and

email it through. ask+udwina.com5 I’m going to write a follow u! blog and feature the email

signatures that are sent through and any suggestions that are !osted below.

Please ote: $his is only for :mail users. If you are using a different web based email it should be

fairly similar but the ste!s will vary. Also make sure that your image is not too big as it may look out of

!lace. nce you have inserted it, you can tell if it needs to be re=sied.
