Did you know that 47% of people open emails based on the subject line alone? On the other hand, a staggering 68% mark them as spam - just because of the subject line. So don't let the email that took you hours of work go to waste because of a boring subject line.
Let's look at 10 examples of subject lines that get your contacts to open, read, and click on your emails:
1. Re: [last email]: This is an excellent subject line for contacts you've already been in touch with. Don't use it in a send to contacts you don't know.
2. Learn x in 15 seconds: Useful information that takes you no time at all - Who could resist?
3. x days left to reach your goal: A sense of urgency is always intriguing. Now or never!
4. I found [content] and thought it would help you: Personalization and the feeling that your prospect or customer is on your mind and that you're constantly looking for new ways to help them.
5. Read this if [their goal]: Exclusivity - Do you want to be one of those who will achieve their goal?
6. Only for those who want to sell more: This subject line promises you the desired result and makes you part of an ambitious group.
7. Do this: A direct command is more effective than you think.
8. Get ready for tomorrow: What's happening tomorrow? Did I miss something?
9. Are you sure you can afford to miss this opportunity? Surely not, at least not without knowing what you would be missing.
10. Stop losing money on [the old way]: Who would want to lose money? Explain in your email the specific ways you can help them manage their expenses.
