Googlize to Save Time and Money

1. The Price is Right! Gmail is free. And you will not be bothered with desktop
software (i.e. Outlook) to purchase, update or upgrade!
2. Gmail Goes with You! Gmail is web-based. You can access your email anywhere
you can get online unlike a desk top software solution.
3. Gigs of Space! Gmail offers users abundant storage space; over 7 GB (and
counting, because Google keeps improving its product) meaning most of us won't
ever have to delete a message. This amount of storage is double the amount of
space provided by its competitors. They even provide a premium service option
that allows businesses to raise their storage and enjoy up to 33% savíngs by
converting to Google applications. Compare for yourself. Use a Calculator to
project your business savíngs.
4. Gmail Chat - Conduct real time communication with Gmail subscribers. Build
your base of Contacts, Customers, and (staff) Team members. You can opt to save
chats and later access them through the search feature. This is useful when
sharing web links and other details.
5. Less Spam - Gmail filters spam so you do not have to.
6. Contained Commercial Ads - Google does not incorporate advertisements into
the message body as AOL does. Related advertisements appear in the side panes,
although these do not interfere with your message. These advertisements are
predicative matches populated by key words in the current emails. Ads are
machine-matched.
7. Reliable Retrieval of Information - Email is searchable by topic, sender,
keywords, date, etc. Google does not search spam or trash which means your
results are more inclined to be relevant.
8. Greater Organization - File topics under multiple labels for ease in
searching. For those who are used to working with folders, this transition may
take some time. Emails can be filed under multiple labels: For example: Future
interest, Past Customers, Possible Recruits, and Spring Call Backs. The ability
to classify emails with multiple labels gives you fast access to archived
information. Archived emails are still searchable. Use filters, stars and
constantly archive incoming mail to reign in your inbound communication.
9. Maximum Mobility - Receive Gmail on your mobile phone. My Gmail arrives on my
Blackberry, which has pleasantly eliminated the need to tote a laptop.
10. Mesh Your Other Email Clients - Integrate Gmail with your other email
clients so that all of your email goes to one account. Reply to emails from your
originating email address. You can automatically reply from the same address or
reply from the account of your choice. (For example, I forward my personal email
and my business email to my gmail account. You can automatically reply from the
same address or reply from the account of your choice.
