Personalized Subject Lines
Take a few minutes to read your prospect’s company bio or scan their LinkedIn profile. People are more likely to open your email if it triggers something relevant to them or mentions their names. You may come across something that will inspire a subject headline.
- I’m also from _____!
- Emma N. referred you to me! Let’s chat
- Best camping spots in _____
- So, you speak three languages…
Out-of-the-box Subject Lines
- I’m going to be honest with [Company Name]…

Tweaking a subject line is a simple solution if you’re having a hard time getting consumers to view your email.
It’s human to want to work with people you like, so add something silly or thought-provoking to your next subject line. Like window shopping, whatever is out on display can make or break the consumer’s next move.
So, dazzle them with a spunky, original subject headline!
