Neither a personal email nor a business email account is inherently better. However, how they’re used can make one better than the other in certain circumstances.
For example, a personal email doesn’t have the same features as a corporate email owned by a business. If you’re the business owner, you’ll set up your business email address and become the administrator of all the email accounts owned by the business, allowing you to create new accounts for employees.
Personal emails
Your personal email is best for personal communication with friends and family or when you don’t have a business email because you’re not a business owner.
For example, candidates applying for jobs might use a personal email instead of a business email because there’s no need for them to communicate as though they’re running a business. However, they may choose to have a more professional personal email to help them stand out when applying for jobs.
Corporate emails
Your business email address should only be used for business communications, such as customer service, scheduling meetings, communicating with employees and partners, and email automation, such as sending out email marketing newsletters and e-blasts.
