You send me an email using a Hotmail account.

 

Using free email services like Hotmail, Gmail, or YahooMail for business can send the wrong message to potential customers. Here’s what many people may assume about your business:

 

Negative Perceptions:

 

Unprofessional Image
Using a personal email (like yourname@gmail.com) can make your business seem small, temporary, or even unreliable.

 

Lack of Credibility
Customers may question whether you're a legitimate company. They might wonder: “Why don’t they have their own domain?”

 

Security Concerns
Free email providers may raise concerns about data security and privacy, especially if you're handling sensitive or confidential information.

 

Poor Branding
You're missing a chance to reinforce your brand every time you send an email. A custom domain email (yourname@yourcompany.com) builds recognition and trust.

 

What You Should Do Instead:

 

Get a custom domain and a business-class email service. It shows:

 

You're established and serious.

 

You care about your professional image.

 

You prioritize security and organization.

 

Would you trust a lawyer, consultant, or retailer using @hotmail.com? Probably not. The same applies to your business.
