We have found time and time again that merely adding your avatar and logo can encourage employees to not only trust the invitation but also encourage them to open and consume your Ving. The occurs for a few reasons.

 

Why You Need An Avatar And Logo

1. Builds Trust

Having an avatar and logo will build trust that your employees did not receive something they shouldn't open. It is sad, but there is a lot of hackers online, so it is okay if your employees are slightly cautious. Help alleviate any worry by adding your avatar and logo.

 

2. Establish Importance

We subconsciously flip into a more serious mode when we see our companies logo. Most people do it, so naturally, they don't even know they are doing it. You can take advantage of this tendency by including your company logo and establishing the importance of your material.
