Today we received an email from Laura at Sue Ryder Care that included one of the pretty little buttons we make available in the Charity Account.
What buttons you say? The ones you get by following these instructions…
Go to the Charity Account at www.justgiving.com/charityaccount. Click on the Fundraising resources tab, then on the Buttons and logos link on the left.
There’s lots to choose from, like this little chap here:
Or on Laura’s email signature like this:
That button, when clicked on, takes you to their fundraising area on Justgiving. And it’s a great way to promote the site – even if people don’t click on it, they’ll still read it and potentially remember it…
Find out how to do it yourself by watching the short video tutorial below:

Also don’t forget to to encourage your fundraisers to put badges on their email signatures (which means that possible donors can get straight from their email to their fundraising page). Simply direct your supporters to here for simple instructions on how to do this.
Now on my email signature, I have a very snazzy headline animator (courtesy of Feedburner) that shows the latest posts from this very blog:
And what’s cool about that is that I can get stats for it (I love stats) – and since our helpdesk have this in their signature too, a lot of eyes get to see it – 1,386 people in the last 30 days in fact.
So, whilst not many people may have clicked on the animator, a hell of a lot have seen it – and it’s funny what things sometimes stick in people’s minds…
Who knows, it might even be why you’re reading this!
And for an old post on another great email signature, click here. And you can find out how to add a fundraising page badge to your signature here.

We also use the JG button on our webpages – very useful and only takes a few mins to set up.
