Using Email Signatures for Different Departments
Présenté par Exclaimer
Email continues to be a mission-critical tool for businesses across the world. Rather than shrinking, email usage is expected to increase year-on-year by six percent for the foreseeable future. Even in a world that uses social media and instant messaging, email continues to be the communication modality of choice.
With this in mind, email signatures are one of the most untapped branding and marketing generation tools at a company’s disposal. An average employee will send 35-40 emails per day, so think how many that equates to a year. The impact a professional email signature can have on a recipient is potentially huge. This is particularly true when you implement different email signatures for different departments.
Let’s take a look at how you and your company can make the most out of departmental email signatures.
The Marketing department
The whole purpose of a Marketing department is to increase brand awareness and run marketing campaigns for lead generation purposes.
A marketing team will, as best practice, create a lot of content to be deployed across various channels, e.g. email, social media, direct mail, etc. The objective is to target the right people in order to encourage them to explore what you can offer them.

However, marketing departments tend need to spend a lot of money to leverage all of these campaigns. Many companies don’t realize that corporate email sent day-to-day can provide massive marketing and business benefits.
A departmental email signature in this context is ideally suited to contain a clickable call to action that promotes something important about your company. Using signature banners and social media icons in email signatures easily helps to promote your brand or lead generation message.
When creating a departmental email signature for marketing purposes, you should see it as the perfect channel to promote:
When the email signature channel is used correctly, every employee’s email provides opportunities to engage and convert prospects and customers.
The Sales department
While a marketer‘s primary objective is to drive brand engagement, Sales wants you to engage with the sales process.
Whether it is pre-sales or getting final contracts confirmed, Sales cares about ensuring that prospects/customers see the true value of what your company provides.

Using a departmental email signature as a marketing channel can actually do a lot of sales work for you. You could use every email to guide your prospects on a journey. They could request an online demo, see a product video, view pricing and product features or even use an ROI calculator.
This is so they can see if what you’re offering is of benefit to them. With each click, they will understand your product or service better, with minimal effort on your part.
Use departmental email signatures to allow prospects/customers to interact with tools such as:
Every email can then make your prospects/customers feel more confident as they pass through the sales process.
The Customer Services department
Marketing wants you to interact with your brand. Sales wants you to engage with the process. A Customer Service department then wants to provide added value for doing business with you. It exists to answer customer questions, troubleshoot and solve problems, and assist well past the initial purchase.

Departmental email signatures for a customer services department can remind these customers of the resources available to them and urge them to get in touch.
These tools can include:
That’s not all…
