Why upgrade?

Why upgrade from a personal Gmail address?

A proper business email address helps small local businesses look more established without changing everything about how they work.

  • It looks more professional.
  • It builds trust with customers.
  • It is easier to remember.
  • It keeps the business separate from personal email.
  • It makes the business look more established.
  • It can be used on business cards, websites, invoices, signs, and social media.
  • It avoids relying on a personal-looking address for customer enquiries.

Setup options

Three simple setup options

We will look at what you already have and recommend the lowest-cost sensible route.

Keep Gmail

Keep using Gmail if you want

Many small businesses already use Gmail every day and do not want to change how they work. That is fine.

With the simplest setup, enquiries sent to your professional email address can arrive in your existing Gmail inbox. In many cases, we can also configure Gmail so replies are sent from your professional address, meaning customers see your business email rather than your personal Gmail address.

Optional setup on your devices

We can also help set up the new email on your phone, tablet, laptop, Outlook, Apple Mail, Gmail app, or other mail app, so everything is ready to use.

FAQ

Business email setup questions

Can I keep using Gmail?

Yes. The simplest setup can forward messages into your existing Gmail inbox, and in many cases Gmail can be configured so you can reply using your professional business address.

Do I need Microsoft 365?

Not always. Microsoft 365 is a good option if you want a proper business mailbox, Outlook, shared mailboxes, Teams, OneDrive, or multiple staff accounts. For a very simple setup, forwarding to Gmail may be enough.

Can you set it up on my phone?

Yes. We can help set up your new email on your phone, tablet, laptop, Outlook, Apple Mail, the Gmail app, or another mail app.

What if I do not have a domain?

We can help choose and register a suitable business domain, then connect email and, if needed, a simple website.

Can I use info@, hello@, or my own name?

Yes. Common choices include hello@, info@, contact@, bookings@, or your own name. We can recommend what fits your business best.

Is this suitable for a small business or sole trader?

Yes. The service is designed for small local businesses that want a professional setup without unnecessary complexity.
