The older I get and more professional, the simpler my emails get.
I've long done away with email signatures. I have no signature at all. (Metadata is plenty to let people know my full name, and they can just Google me, or use Superhuman / Rapportive to get info on me in context.)
These days, most of my emails are signed with "-Kenneth" only. No signoff, no signature. The rest don't have a signature at all and just contain a one line response.
For greetings, a simple "Hi" or "Hey" with the recipient(s)' first name does the trick.
Receiving emails with giant email signatures drives me nuts. I don't care to have your logo, 10 contact infos and a giant email disclaimer wasting a full page length of my screen. The worst are the notes "please consider the environment before printing this email." These make me want to roll my eyes so hard.
