Professionalism/Credibility
A custom email address for your business is important because it makes you and your business more memorable in your customer’s inbox. A custom email address helps you create a professional image and boosts your business’ credibility. you@yourdomain.com looks a lot better than ke295@yahoo.com or pr54@gmail.com (made up addresses). Many organizations block free email accounts to prevent viruses and spam. Free email accounts also give potential customers the view that your business is not properly established or credible. One of the most important aspects of having an email address is so that people will receive and read the emails you send, so, making the best impression whenever you send email communications to their inbox can really give your business a competitive advantage.
Keep It For Life
Your email address will change if you change internet providers @attn.net, @comcast.net, and other such internet provider-based. If using a business email address, it will be yours permanently.
Email Addresses by Department
Separate your incoming email by its purpose by having department email addresses. Even if you’re a one-person shop, having addresses like billing@yourdomain.com, customersupport@yourdomain.com, etc., can help you compartmentalize your incoming email and even make you look like a bigger company than you are. A customized email address for your business allows flexibility. When you have your own custom email addresses, you have full control over them, because you can easily create new ones or remove inactive ones. When a new employee joins your company, you can easily set up one for him or her and create more custom addresses as you hire more staff.
