Are you still using an email address with other domain name like Yahoo, Hotmail, Gmail or even Singnet.com.sg, Pacific.net.sg for your business?
Your business must make first impression with potential customer professionally.
The fact is that people will not take your business seriously if you are using that kind of email address. So, you shouldn’t drive away your customer by using other domain email address.
I saw a house moving company’s truck which had big label on the side with company name and email address. The email was something like huathm_88@yahoo.com. I didn’t see any phone number or website address but the email address only. This company must be using email as the main business contact. It is totally fine using email as mail contact but they are using free email that will definitely spoil the company’s image.
There are many businesses using free email to send proposals and quotations. The free email accounts show that how unprofessional they are and we normally just do not use their service. Likewise, most people will not trust to deal with the business which is using free email for business.
There is another problem with using free emails, especially Yahoo or Hotmail accounts. If you are using these email addresses, you will sure have experience like some solicited emails are marked as spam. So you may miss big chance for your business. I wonder how many business opportunities you are not receiving because you want to use cheap email address.
If you are using a free email address for your business, here are the questions you should ask yourself:
- How will the potential customer remember such a random sequence letter email address like huathm_88@yahoo.com?
Hint: It will be much easier to remember enquiry@HuatMover.com than huathm_88@yahoo.com.
- What does a potential customer think about my professionalism for using free email address?
Hint: A free email address could mean that you have just started a new business or part-time business which may not be around in few months.
- What will happen if free email service stops?
Hint: You will lose your business emails. If it is your main contact point, your loss will be terrible.
- What if the free email service is down?
Hint: You cannot access your free email. Email communication with your customer will stop which means sales process stops. Your customer will be frustrated as both of you cannot reach each other. Email recovery time is unpredictable. No one knows when the email service will be up.
