Why your subject line needs to slap, not snoozeBoring subject lines get ignored. You need curiosity, clarity, or straight-up benefits. I share what makes a subject line irresistible and why A/B testing should be your new best friend.2. The must-have CTA above the foldIf your audience has to scroll to find the link, you’ve already lost them. I break down what “above the fold” actually looks like and why clarity always wins.3.

I share my go-to readability tool and the simple graphic design rule that will instantly improve your emails.4. Clear, non-waffly copy that respects your customer’s timePromo emails should be quick, direct and obvious.
