Multiple Gmail Signatures

Email is still the most widely used tool for communication. I use it all day long for both in-district and out-of-district communication. When I communicate with others in my district, I want them to see a signature that reflects what I want them to see (links to my blog, Twitter account, and a “Book Me” link. When I communicate with educators outside my district, I don’t want them to have access to my “Book Me” link. In the past, I had to delete this portion of my signature. Gmail allows you to have multiple signatures saved. Before sending an email I can select the correct one for the recipient. Set up multiple signatures in your account (one for staff, one for students, and one for parents) to make your signature specific to your audience!
