Are you running a special offer? Will you be attending an upcoming event or tradeshow? Have you recently won an award? Whatever your aims, the email signature channel can be instrumental in achieving them.
Including promotional banners in email signatures ensures that your organization's most important contacts stay in the know and your marketing activities get a valued boost.
The Banner element allows you to add a promotional banner image and associate it with a web address, so recipients can click the image to access further information:
Banner placement
If a banner is added, it is always placed after your email signature, but before any environmental responsibility and legal disclaimer content if applicable:
Banner images commonly have a longer length than width and usually appear at the end of an email message rather than in the body of signature content. However, if you prefer to add a smaller image and an associated web link within the body of your signature, you can do so by choosing a template that includes the Awards element.
Image file requirements
