Your email signature has the potential to be an active contributor to your sales system. But if it isn't set up to be helping, it's actually potentially hindering your sales. You might be thinking, Everyone has an email signature. What's the big deal? The big deal is that your email signature is often the first place anyone interacting with you checks for crucial information. It's where they look for your phone number, the link to your website, or any other additional details they might need to further engage with you. So, let's make sure you're using it intentionally and strategically. Your email signature serves a primary function, to identify the sender of the email. But it's capable of so much more!

The possibility exists that you don't have to tell them, here's my booking link, or visit our website. Instead, you can just include all of that in your email signature, making the process smoother for your prospects. So, how can you make the most of your email signature? Let's break it down into five steps. Number one, phone number. Ensure your phone number is prominently displayed in your email signature.

If your schedule has specific working hours or preferred meeting times, consider mentioning these in your email signature. It's a simple yet effective way to manage your prospect's expectations. Also important to include this information if there are upcoming holidays or if you have planned time out of the office. Number four. Your photo. A personal touch can go a long way in building trust.
