Lost the pitch before the call
Clients skim your email first. A free address triggers 'amateur' before they read your portfolio.
Look hired before you are
Clients judge your rate by your email address.
A proposal from jane@gmail.com screams side hustle. jane@janedesign.com closes deals. Meil Live gives freelancers a real domain inbox from $1.70/month — less than one coffee, more credible than any logo refresh.

Workspace is overkill
You're one person. Google Workspace at $6+/mo funds your client's lunch, not your business.
Two inboxes, one headache
Forwarding tricks look unprofessional. You need one real address that sends and receives as you@yourdomain.

Questions before you switch
I'm solo — is this overkill?
No. It's the cheapest credibility upgrade you'll make. One client pays for years of mail.
Can I use my name as the domain?
Yes — janedesign.com, smithconsulting.ae, whatever you own.
Will this work with Gmail on my phone?
Yes. Standard IMAP — keep the app, upgrade the address.
What if I only send a few emails a month?
Starter includes 500 monthly credits — plenty for freelancers. Pay per inbox, not per send.
Your next client is reading your email header right now.
Free signup. Professional inbox from $1.70/mo. Be the freelancer they trust to invoice $10k.
