Hi Sam,

Thanks for the call today. The proposal is attached; tell me if anything needs changing.

Best regards,

    Brand link for your team

    Opens this page with every section marked In brand link already filled in. Teammates add their own name and contacts.

    HTML code
    
            

    The form starts with example details. Replace them with yours.

    Languages In brand link
    Layout

    Each line is followed by its translation, and the disclaimer by a second paragraph. Numbers, email and links are shared.

    Translated lines sit in two columns; lines you leave untranslated, numbers, email and links run across both. Two columns need room, so phones may show the signature smaller.

    You
    Company In brand link
    The company name and the logo link here; no separate line in the signature.
    Contact
    Links

    Paste full profile links. Empty ones are left out.

    Affiliations In brand link

    Groups, networks or associations you belong to, under the signature. Text, link and logo are each optional; logos without text line up side by side.

    Logo or photo In brand link
    Show
    Drawn in your accent colour, so it needs no image.
    A PNG or JPEG that anyone can open. This is the only way the image shows in Gmail.
    Embedded in the signature, not put online, so Gmail won't show it.
    Corners
    Style In brand link
    Layout

    Mail apps only have the fonts installed on the reader's computer, so the list keeps to those.

    Disclaimer In brand link

    Small print at the very bottom. Line breaks are kept.

    Good to know

    My logo doesn't show in Gmail
    An uploaded image is never put online: the page shrinks it and embeds it in the signature's HTML, so it has no link. Apple Mail and Outlook send it with each email; Gmail removes it. Put the image online (your website, a CDN, a public GitHub file) and paste its link under Image link, at least twice the width you display.
    Rounded corners look square
    Classic Outlook for Windows ignores rounded corners and draws them square. Every other common app shows them.
    Colours change in dark mode
    Some mail apps recolour text when the reader uses dark mode. Mid-tone accents and a logo with its own background hold up best.
    Where are my details kept?
    Only in this browser's storage, uploaded image included, so the page remembers them next time. Nothing is sent anywhere. A brand link carries your brand settings in the link itself, never your personal details.
