I've learned to draft a work agreement that clearly details the granting of exclusive rights, reservation of rights, and additional usage. By creating a design for someone you are not only selling them the design but also transferring the exclusive copyrights to use said art.
I detail in the grant of rights that this design is to be used as an "email template" and if they desire to use any or part of the design as something else we must agree upon such usage as I am not transferring those rights. Also the reservation of rights dictates that as the designer I retain authorship credit and to use the master files does warrant additional charges as the client will likely use the design for whatever they please.
