Setting up Professional Email
-
We recently were asked to set up a new domain for a client as they needed an affordable solution to look professional via email. Let’s face it, using a Rogers, hotmail or gmail address is great for personal use, but if you’re serious about business you need your own domain (yourname@yourdomain.com). The company has yet to create a website, but they are focused on getting business cards made with a professional email address to have potential customers contact them at. This is a great starting point to reach out to potential clients and a great first step to looking professional and keeping costs low.
How can you keep costs low? Most people would think they would need their own mail server costing thousands of dollars to set up and maintain. Well 10 years ago, yes, but now there are solutions such as Google Apps that allow you to set up email for up to 10 users, for FREE. This means the only cost for getting your own domain and email up and running for less than 10 people is the labour to get everything set up, and the $10-15/year domain fee. We use Google Apps here at Memorywalk, and I recommend it to every small business out there. They have great pricing for medium to large size organizations which is built to scale. Even some goverment bodies use Google Apps for their email so you know it’s secure. It can also be easily integrated with your iPhone, Android, or Blackberry device.
If you’re looking for a widely trusted and easy way to manage your email, calendar, documents, and contacts…or even keeping it simple if you just want to have your own domain to send and receive email with, contact us today! We can set everything up for just $200 .(This includes instructions to set it up on your smartphone).
