Writing Emails: A Compelling Subject Line
- Almost half the emails are not opened due to their subject line alone.
- The subject line has to be short, preferably four words to have a better response rate.
- Avoid writing ‘follow up’ or ‘checking in’ in the subject line as it can make the person feel that he or she is being blamed for not responding on time.
- The subject line can also preview the main content of the text, so the person knows what is there in the email.

Subject Line Emails
