I often meet new Business Owners in trying to keep their set up costs to a minimum use a a gmail or hotmail email account.
If you want your new business to look professional, you need to set up your own domain account from day one.
[email protected] never looks as good as [email protected]
The costs involved is minimal and far outweighs the benefits of looking professional.
You also need to consider the costs of switching later… reprinting business cards and letterheads, advising clients/customers to change to your new email address, running multiple email accounts, the risk of your preferred domain being registered while you use your gmail account.
