CLEAN UP YOUR INBOX
Email Display Names
Purpose
Is your inbox cluttered with generic mailboxes like “Reception” or “Accounts”? Many companies miss the opportunity to improve clarity and branding in their email communications. When clients or external users receive an email from “Reception,” they may have no idea which company it’s from until they open it – creating confusion and reducing brand visibility.
We recommend renaming these mailboxes to include your company name. This small change provides a more professional look and makes communication crystal clear.
