Make Use of the Signature Line in Your Email
Think about it, how many emails do you send out every day? How
many of these forwarded jokes, pictures, stories etc do you
receive every week?
Why not put your email to work for you?! Add a link or two to
your signature file. Mine looks something like this:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Susanne
I am a Work at Home Mom Wannabe www.wahmwannabe.com

You get the idea. You can start as simple or as fancy as you'd
like. You do want to get your readers attention though. Make a
statement, ask a question. If you'd like, offer something free.
A free coupon if they place their first order etc.
You may also want to change your signature around a little from
time to time, particularly if you email the same people a lot.
Never miss an opportunity to display your links though. You
never know when someone's situation or circumstances change and
all of a sudden, they may be interested in what you have to
offer, be it a product or a business opportunity.
Right now, a lot of people that I email on a daily basis may not
be interested in www.wahmwannabe.com. But what if one of them
just found out she is pregnant and is all of a sudden
considering starting a business from home. I may not know about
it for a while, and she may not want to tell me, but the link is
there.
The idea is to get as much exposure for your business as
possible. Maybe one of your friends has a slow day at work and
clicks on one of your links out of boredom and ends up making a
purchase.
You may also want to consider all the funny stories, pictures,
jokes etc. that inevitably end up in your inbox. Imagine, if you
just forward them to 5 people, who forward them to 5 of their
friends and so on. All of a sudden your signature links have to
potential of reaching hundreds of people.
To make this even more effective, take it a step further and add
your link right above the story, joke or picture, with a little
"brought to you by www.your-url.com." Spend a few minutes today
setting up your signature line, or if you already have one, make
sure your links are working and come up with some fun lines to
go along with it.
