At some point when starting your own business, you'll decide you need a more professional email address-- the traditional yourname@yourbusinessdomain.com. (I decided on thomas @ textbranding.com).
You may be anticipating a dreadful experience, especially if you are technologically challenged; but, fortunately, Google Apps makes it relatively simple to set up your own business email account.
For only $50 per year (per user), the Google Apps suite will allow you to set up business email accounts for yourself and your employees. If you have your own Gmail account for personal use, it only gets better. You can centralize your personal and business email all into one and send messages from either account. When composing a message, you select which account you want to send the message from. If you are replying to a message, Gmail will automatically send it from the email address the original message was sent to. This feature makes Google Apps particularly noteworthy.
Email is the central feature to Google Apps, but the other benefits including Google Calender, Chat, Docs, Sites, and Video allow you to create a personalized intranet for your company. For entrepreneurs just starting out, Google Apps presents an exceptionally low-cost technology system to get things started (and probbaly, to keep things running). With all your documents and materials saved online, a first-rate email platform, and just a $50 dollar per year (per user) fee, Google Apps is a must for entreprenuers.
