DON’T DO IT!

Using the new facebook email address makes as much sense as using an aol, yahoo or gmail address for business.  But then again, I know plenty of lawyers and professionals who do.  And guess what?  I do lose a bit of respect for them.  You might be saving $10 or $20 a month by not getting a @yourbusinss.com email address, but you will end up losing hundreds or thousands of dollars worth of business and credibility by not doing it.

And since I’m on the subject, the same goes for free business cards from places such as Vistaprint.  Nothing says “newbie” or “I don’t care about quality” more than a vistaprint logo on the back of your free business card.
