Do you think that your email address counts in branding your business?
I hope you said YES!
So often I see business people who have an email address that reads xbusiness@comcast.net or johnsrepairservice@gmail.com. While I always set up a companyname@gmail.com address for my clients, it is for a totally different purpose than to run their business email with that email address.
I apologize to have hurt your feelings if you are one of those people reading this that have that sort of email address. But get with the program. There are three reasons why you don’t have an email address with your company as your domain name:
- You just got started and haven’t built your website yet.
- You are too busy to do it yourself – then it is time to hire someone to do it for you.
- You are trying to save a few bucks by not paying for the upgrade to the company that is hosting your URL.
Here is my question to you – how much business have you lost because someone thinks you are a “valid” business because you don’t have a company email address.
If your domain name was taken when you tried to create your company website and email, you may not have to worry about that any longer. Look at the image in this post and you can see how many options there are for you now. How you brand your business must include what you use for an email extension.
