In 5 steps to the perfect Outlook signature
Who often writes e-mails will probably be annoyed at some point constantly manual the standard phrase “Sincerely” and put his name under it. It will be even more exhausting if you also want to insert additional contact data such as: address, telephone, fax, etc.
Fortunately, Outlook gives us the function of the signature template for this task.
This allows us to easily select different signatures (depending on the occasion and the recipient) and also provide them with business photos for business contacts or applications.
Read in our article how to make more impression with your signature in Microsoft Outlook.

If you also want to insert your photo for the final fine-tuning of your perfect Outlook signature, please note the following:
1. For what purpose will I use the signature?
For example, e-mail applications have become a matter of course today.
So, regardless of your e-mail attachment with the application documents, you have the opportunity to present yourself already with the signature at your best.
2. Which image format is the right one for my signature, so that it looks the same everywhere?
If you are unsure which format to choose the best, or your current portrait photo looks more like a standard application photo than a business photo, we recommend professional career photo editing.
The advantage: It does not need a new photo shoot here.
An image upload to our Partner Starmazing.de can make sense here.

After we have created, assigned, and saved our signature, it will automatically be added to every e-mail after our message.
In case we did not do an automatic assignment (for example, if we want to use different signatures more often), proceed as follows:
- Position the cursor where you would normally put the salutation.
- And then click on “Signature” where you select the desired signature.
