Out of the following which website would you rather make a purchase from given their email addresses – marketing@yourbrand.com or yourbrandname@gmail.com? I would prefer the first one and chances are you too would prefer the same. The only reason being, the first email feels more credible as opposed to the latter.<\/p>\n

As a Web Pro (designer and\/or developer), email is one of the primary modes of communication for your business. An email address that ends with the domain name of your business, impacts the way customers form an opinion of your brand. A customized email address adds to the credibility of your business by making it look professional.<\/p>\n

Our aim in this post is to help you understand what business email is, its advantages and how to set it up with ResellerClub\u2019s Business Email<\/a> Product.<\/p>\n

What is Business Email?<\/h2>\n

A business email address is an email that you would use for the purpose of promoting and building your brand. As opposed to a regular email address, a business email is associated with your brand\u2019s domain name rather than a generic domain like gmail.com or yahoo.com. This helps in increasing the awareness of your business and also, in building and preserving your brand.<\/p>\n

Example of regular email: yourbrandname@gmail.com
\nExample of business email: customercare@yourbrandname.com<\/p>\n

3 Advantages of Business Email<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. The first and foremost advantage of having a \u2018Business Email\u2019 is that it elevates your marketing efforts<\/strong> and adds to the professional appeal of your business. As a brand, you are required to communicate with your clients and customers on a frequent basis. Sending an email from a free email account (eg. Yahoo\/Gmail, etc.) would make you look unprofessional and even negatively impact your business.<\/li>\n
  2. A business email provides several additional features<\/strong> as opposed to a normal email like mail tracking, monitoring etc. Take, for instance, Open-Xchange<\/a> a business email platform integrates all your personal emails, calendar, contacts and appointments on a single platform. Moreover, it even allows document sharing.<\/li>\n
  3. With all the features like private labelled service, 99.99% Uptime and storage space it provides, business email is cost-effective<\/strong> as compared to email services like GSuite, Enterprise email etc. Read more here<\/a>, to know other advantages of a business email.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
