  • Why a Professional Email Address Matters

Before we delve into the ‘how-to’, it’s crucial to understand the ‘why’. A custom email address, especially one associated with your domain, gives a more polished image. Imagine comparing ‘john.doe@gmail.com’ with ‘john@doeenterprises.ie’. The latter immediately speaks volumes about professionalism and can significantly influence first impressions, especially in business correspondence.
