 Email Subject Lines – Double Your Clicks

If you have been marketing for a while you know that email subject lines must grab your readers attention.  There is an old saying “If it don’t get opened it ain’t gonna get read”.

So yesterday I spent close to 5 hours sorting through old broadcasts to see which ones had the highest click through rate.  Out of over 1000 old emails we were able to analyze why some did very well while others sucked wind.

Some could argue it has something to with what day you send it.  Time of day.  How dialed in your audience is.  How good your list is.  These things all matter.  Some more so.

Bottom line, if you have a list with a strong following your going to get high open rate if you’ve been delivering good content with consistency.  But lets face it, most of you are just starting to build a list so it’s important to get as many opens as you can.  There is an exact science when putting together email marketing strategies.

“Your VIP Summit Invitation Inside [Open Now]
