practical, applicable, hands-on learning.

HAVE A HELPFUL REASON TO TALK TO THEM
STUART DRAPER
@Stu_Draper #StukentDS18
“Wanna buy
my stuff?”
ACTUALLY TALK TO THEM INDIVIDUALLY
STUART DRAPER
@Stu_Draper #StukentDS18
--Personalized emails always perform better.
--Conversational emails get more replies.
WARNING: Don’t talk at them, or to a crowd.
STUART DRAPER

IF THEY DON’T OPEN, NOTHING ELSE
MATTERS
STUART DRAPER
@Stu_Draper #StukentDS18
Subject line should give them FOMO.
Test different subject lines.
Subject line must be relevant.
Get creative with subject lines, but don’t just bait
and hook.
