<\/a>1, DO<\/em> split testing<\/strong><\/p>\nYou are trying to please your audience, so work out what they like. Split testing is a great way to learn what is received well, and learn from what isn’t. Instead of guesswork, you can actually measure the difference and make informed, data-backed decisions.<\/p>\n
2, Think carefully about the subject line<\/strong><\/p>\n The ‘preheader’ is the first 35(ish) characters that will be displayed in most email browsers. Use this valuable space wisely.\u00a0Although a lot of research has been done about the length of the subject line, there really isn’t a right answer but here is how the land generally lies. Use a subject line that is under 50 characters and this will drive awareness of your brand, and is likely to get a good open rate. Using a longer subject line will probably get a lower open rate, but a higher click through rate as those who have read the whole title only click if the content genuinely interests them.<\/p>\n 3, Distribute creative content<\/strong><\/p>\n A well presented, attractive email works wonders but without the content to back up its good looks a reader will soon stray. Think of ways of engaging your reader, being controversial, edgy and taking a different view on an otherwise generic topic are all good ways to do this. Encouraging commenting and social media sharing are also a must.<\/p>\n
