Professional Signatures

Today we went over an in-class powerpoint on developing your professional signature.
It's important to remember that your signature represents you and you can be judged when someone sees your signatures on a cheque, important document or even your cover letter.

That is why it is important to get into the adult life by developing your own signature.

A signature must be:

  1. Unique
  2. Repeatable by YOU 
  3. Difficult to repeat by others
  4. Slightly related to your name (people must be able to see either the first letter of our first name and/or last name
We did an exercise where we sat in a circle, wrote a signature on a page and your classmates wrote one for you.  The resulting paper had 24 different signatures on it, from which you picked one that would help you develop yours!

BE PATIENT!  It takes A LOT of practice to get your signature consistent.  Start by deciding what you want it to be and then sit down and imagine you are giving 100 autographs of your famous signature.  Your fans want it!  Get good at it by practicing!
