2. Subject line of your email marketing campaign is
extremely important.
It lets the receiver know what the email is about.
It is one of the most vital piece of information your email list
can see before opening the email.
Hence, email subject line does have an effect on receiver’s
decision, to open the email or not.
Avoid making silly mistakes and blunders with these tips.
3. EMAIL SUBJECT 01LINE IN NOT “THE
BIGGEST”
DECIDING
FACTOR ON
WHETHER THE
RECEIVER OPENS
THE EMAIL.
4. NO MATTER WHAT YOU READ ON ZILLIONS
OF BLOGS OR HOW TO GUIDES FOR EMAIL
MARKETING, SUBJECT LINE IS NOT THE
BIGGEST FACTOR AND CANNOT MAKE THE
READER OPEN YOUR EMAIL OWN ITS OWN.
ITS NOT NOT WHAT THE MESSAGE IS OR
HOW TEMPTING THE SUBJECT LINE IS. IN
THE END RECEIVERS OF THE EMAIL MAKE
A DECISION BASED ON WHO IS IT FROM.
WHICH IS VERY RATIONAL, IF YOU THINK
ABOUT IT. YOU A LOT MORE LIKELY TO OPEN
AN EMAIL FROM YOUR FRIEND THAN TO OPEN
AN EMAIL FROM AN UNKNOWN SENDER.
DON’T SEND THE EMAIL FROM NO-REPLY OR
ADMIN. GIVE YOUR EMAIL A CHARACTER. USE
A REAL NAME AS SENDER NAME INSTEAD.

8. 06WRITE A VERY
LONG SUBJECT
LINE, WHICH IS
NOT FULLY VISIBLE
TO READERS.
Between the sender name and time subject line has
a limited space. While, it is not too small of a space
avoid subject lines which are more than 12 words.
10. Although, 2 word subject lines to look
cool and capture recipients’ attention. It
is not very practical approach.
Especially when you are sending
emails to a large email list, it may look
fishy to email providers. As many
spammers do use sensational 2 word
subject line to get more opens.
Also a 2 word subject line may not convey
the message to the recipients very well.
A well descriptive subject line does get
more opens for your email than cheeky
2 word subject lines.
11. ITS SIMPLE. EMAIL
MARKETING IS DIFFERENT
THAN FACEBOOK POSTS
OR YOUTUBE VIDEOS.
EMAIL IS ONE TO ONE
COMMUNICATION.
