Despite being viewed as old school by many, emails are still one of the most popular forms of communication. And while traditional sign-offs like "Best wishes" or "Kind regards" get the job done, there’s no reason you can’t add a touch of personality to your email signature.

That’s why we’ve compiled some of our favorite witty and creative sign-offs that you can try. Many of these will bring a smile to your recipients’ faces but it’s important to consider your audience and keep the context in mind to avoid crossing any boundaries. A good idea is to test them out with close colleagues or friends to see which ones resonate best. Happy emailing!
