Those able to run a business from home should never feel ashamed of their humble beginnings or
current stature, in fact, they should feel proud of their ability to keep going even during times such as
we are experiencing right now. Of course, if you have an idea and are willing to take the personal risks
necessary to help capitalize on your intent, that should be commended.

However, it’s true that while those who run home businesses should be admired, it’s also true that
they should still be expected to operate with correct standards. Often, this means getting the small
things right, especially when putting yourself out there as a visible brand.

This definition certainly includes the correspondence you send and receive to external entities each
and every day. It’s worth ensuring that this practice is approximated in a trustworthy, reliable and
continually justified manner. Additionally, organizing said correspondence in the correct, most secure
manner is your responsibility as someone interfacing with private and public entities outside of your
firm.

Personalized Business Domains & Emails
It’s important to ensure you have a business domain name to seem professional and rooted within a
legitimate structure. Of course, gmail or outlook addresses are known to be reliable,
but daveroofingcontractors@gmail.com is much less impressive than dave@roofingcontractors.com,
to use two examples. If you can provide these email addresses to your staff, you further verify their
outreach procedures, and that’s a fairly reliable place to start.

Physical Addresses
Physicaladdress services allow you to keep your actual location private, which can be worthwhile for
humble operations such as startups or home offices, or even businesses that aren’t quite ready to
unveil their operating environment. With mail forward options, the digitization of correspondence, the
security of such, and the ability to register a proper address in a city near you can further add to your
legitimacy. This enables you to get the starting platform in professional correspondence management,
eventually helping you to move on toward more conventional methods. This, in itself, is more than
worth the price of admission.

Email Formatting
Email formatting is not a luxury, it is a need. If you set up email formatting in your inbox, using a
signature that grants uniformity, and develops comprehensive professionalism, you can send even
quick messages with professionalism and clarity. It will also allow you to speak as if you were a
long-standing business with a code of communication ethics. That in itself can raise your humble outfit
to an initiative that always adopts the best practices no matter what.

of your logo and branding, and your position within your own company. It’s the little things that count.
