There are a few common mistakes I see with email subject lines and I’ll be real with you – I was making a few of these when I started my business! But when I fixed these mistakes and started implementing the types of subject lines that I teach you in this episode, my email open rates went from 10% to an average of 20-25% (nearly double what I was originally getting!)
So want to know my email subject line secrets? Let’s do this.
Create curiosity and intrigue
These email subject lines peaked the interest of the subscriber enough to make them want to open the email to read more.
Examples could be:
- “What does as unicorn have to do with your sex drive?”
- “The one thing that is destroying your thyroid health”
- “If you go here, you might see a reduction in your IBS symptoms”
Personalization
People love when things feel personalized or like they are specifically made for them. This can include using their name in the subject line, but also segmenting your list based on the subscribers activity – don’t send them your essential oils offer if tehy signed up for weight loss tips.
Examples of personalized email subject lines:
- “Hey Jane, I can’t wait to tell you this.”
- “I made this with you in mind, Jane”
Tease a story
The story tease creates something we have already talked about, in that it generates curiosity and drives personal connection.
Examples:
- How a podcast and a saliva tube saved my life
- When I did this, everything changed
- I hit rock bottom and I was blown away by what happened next
Authority email subject lines
If you have accomplished something in your business, don’t be afraid to share it with your subscribers. Authority email subject lines help establish your expertise and knowledge in the niche in which you are known for.
For example:
- How I helped Chloe rid herself of eczema without drugs
- My 5 years working as a weight loss coach has taught me this
- How you can be a success story like 100 other of my clients
