How to create a Memorial Day email signature
Whether you choose one of our free Memorial Day email signature templates listed above, customize another design from our template library, or create your own signature from scratch, here are some best practices to help you keep your email signature respectful and appropriate for Memorial Day.
- Don’t overdo your signature. Memorial Day is a solemn holiday, so instead of using gaudy colors or flashy animations, stick to the traditional Red, White, and Blue (if you want to use font colors at all), and make sure any animated elements remain subtle and toned down.
- Don’t get political. Memorial Day messages should promote national unity and encourage reflection across political divides. Regardless of where you or your organization stand politically, remember the collective meaning behind this holiday.
- Promote Memorial Day events. Instead of advertising special offers, use the days leading up to Memorial Day to share information about local or nationwide events honoring the occasion. The signature banner, for example, is a perfect place to include a link to your commemorative event website.
- Follow the usual design principles. Check out our article on the best email signature examples of all time, or browse other posts on our blog for inspiration and practical tips.
- Use the same email signature template across your organization. Setting up a separate company-wide signature for short-term occasions like Memorial Day may seem like an unnecessary effort, but with the right tools, you can do it in just a few clicks and with minimal manual work.
Enjoy your new email signature – and have a meaningful Memorial Day.
