Avoid subject lines that create a sense of urgency

Phrases like last chance, limited availability, final opportunity and so on, don’t really work for anymore. These lines create a false sense of urgency with no real need to act.

Examples:

● Last Chance to Sign up for Our Power Yoga Workshop● Final Opportunity to Get 80% Discount in Our Bumper Sale!

Addressing your users in subjects and personalizing the content really works like magic.

Example:

● Adam, Here’s How You Can Sell to Millennials

Personalizing the subject lines

Open- ended questions make a simple thing sound more personal.

Examples:

● Adam, Are You Finding It Difficult to Sell to the Millennials?

● Susan, Have You Signed up for Our Innovation Thinking Workshop Yet?

Open-ended questions are more engaging

content. Spin them into a catchy subject line that resonates with your audience.

Examples:

● How to Acquire 8 Million Users with ZERO Marketing Budget
