What does your email address say about your business?
February 12th, 2009The humble email address – who would have thought it could have so much to say about your business!
Consider this. Which do you think gives a better first impression: betterplumbing@hotmail.com or joe@betterplumbing.com.au? The second email address suggests a higher level of professionalism to most. Imagine that – an email address can affect the way people view your business before they have even met you!
It’s so cheap and easy these days to have your own dedicated domain name with a professional email address to go with it. Swish Design’s preferred provider xmanhosting (www.xmanhosting.com.au) offers email hosting and a domain name for as little as $133 a year! And for those who are super attached to their existing email address, you can actually keep it if you like and set up your new, professional email address to automatically forward to your old one. So you can still check your email the same way as before, but all your marketing material and stationery will reflect the professional address.
So now there is no excuse! Make sure your email address is giving your business the best first impression possible.
