Personalization
Personalize subject lines with the recipient's name, company, or a relevant detail.
Example: "Quick Question for [Name]"
Why It Works: It immediately feels tailored to the recipient, increasing curiosity and trust.
Simplicity and Clarity
Keep subject lines short and straightforward (3–5 words). Overly complex or vague subject lines may appear spammy.
Example: "Idea for [Company]"
Ask Questions
Posing a question creates intrigue and compels the recipient to open the email.
Example: "How’s [specific topic] Going at [Company]?"
Focus on Value or Relevance
Highlight potential benefits or insights the email provides, avoiding overly salesy phrases.
Example: "Boost [Metric] for [Company] in 30 Days"
Use Contextual Triggers
Reference recent events, industry news, or achievements related to the recipient.
Example: "Congrats on [Specific Achievement]—Here’s an Idea"
