Email accounts do matter

When doing business, it's a good idea to have your own personal email account, with your own personal URL. Yahoo, AOL and Hotmail just don't do it.

To be taken seriously, get your own domain. They aren't that expensive and the money is well worth it if you want to be taken seriously in the business world.

I can't tell you how many business emails I receive from kittycatlover@aol.com or bigboy1@yahoo.com or jasonlovesmelissa@hotmail.com .
