You may even be keeping social media pages updated or even sending out regular emails to promote sales. But even with all of these efforts, there may be one area that is falling seriously short: Your email address.
Yes, really. The email address you use may be pushing away potential customers.
See, there are two types of email addresses:
- Branded business email addresses (name@yourcompany.com)
- Free, personal email addresses (name@yahoo.com / name@aol.com / name@hotmail.com / name@gmail.com…et cetera)
A branded business email address uses your domain name versus an email provider’s. Without a branded email address, your business can’t put its best foot forward. In the customer’s mind, you’re not as legitimate. They may easily wonder if your other business practices are outdated.
