The secret is using an online email signature generator- if you do a quick google search, you&#8217;ll see a LOT of options. No need to be overwhelmed- I tried out 7 of them so that you won&#8217;t have to- here&#8217;s the list of what I tried:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Signature.email<\/li>\n<li>Mail-signatures.com<\/li>\n<li>Mysignature.io<\/li>\n<li>Honeybook Email Signature Generator<\/li>\n<li>Wisestamp.com<\/li>\n<li>Hubspot Email Signature Generator<\/li>\n<li>Designhill.com Email Signature Generator<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I used this criteria to find the best:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Minimal amount of code<\/strong>&#8211; Some tools have so much code that my email program (Gmail) wouldn&#8217;t allow me to embed it.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Responsive\/looks good on a phone and on a laptop<\/strong>&#8211; Because we all use email on multiple devices, right? I prefer the signature to keep the same format but size down on a phone- switching from multi-column to stacked doesn&#8217;t work for every signature layout<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fully customizable with your colors, photo and logo<\/strong>&#8211; You&#8217;ll have to host the image somewhere online (i.e.&nbsp; your website, Dropbox or Google Drive) and keep the url handy<\/li>\n<li><strong>And most importantly- FREE!<\/strong> (I don&#8217;t mind signing up for email marketing which is usually the catch- its a small price to pay for a great service)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The winner is- Hubspot&#8217;s Email Signature Generator!<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>It ticks all the boxes, it&#8217;s easy to use, and there&#8217;s clear instructions for how to implement it in your email program. It was super easy in Gmail- I&#8217;ll post a step-by-step below. Head on over to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hubspot.com\/email-signature-generator\">hubspot.com\/email-signature-generator<\/a> and get yourself a beautiful email signature!&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pro Tip<\/strong>: Don&#8217;t be tempted to create a signature in Canva or another design program and embed it as an image.
