GMD Advisory – Email Signature Concept

To: client@example.com · Subject: FY26 tax planning

Hi Sarah,

Thanks for sending through the trial balance — I’ve reviewed it and have a couple of planning options worth discussing before 30 June. Happy to jump on a call this week.

Kind regards,

Current draft vs. redesign

Current draft

691 px wide · 8 image requests · the entire disclaimer is one flat 63 KB picture — it can’t reflow on a phone and vanishes when images are blocked.

Redesigned

500 px wide · 2 image requests · every disclaimer is live text, so it stays readable on a phone and with images turned off.

Three versions, one design

Full

New emails to clients — includes the ATO / confidentiality notices.

Standard

Day-to-day email — logos, contact details and the services bar.

Short

Replies and forwards — the essentials only, so threads stay tidy.

On a phone

Kind regards,

This page is a visual concept only. Everything above is a flat image of the finished signature. The working files — hand-coded HTML with inline CSS, the retina logo pack, the fill-in staff template and the step-by-step Outlook / Gmail install guide — are handed over on award, and I’m happy to adjust spacing, wording or colour balance first.
