For Faithgineers like us, success in email marketing starts with complete faith that what you share through email has the power to transform the lives of everyone who interacts with your content, including how you share it.
Your faith unlocks everything!
1. FAITH: Always “trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.” – Proverbs 3:5-6.
This trust includes knowing that when you pray first, consult faith-centered experts for strategy, and take time to meditate on the impact God is leading you to have in the marketplace through your Work, Holy Spirit will direct you in engaging your ideal clients through email to (i) compel your readers to action while (ii) bringing light to dark places in the marketplace that need both your solutions and positive energy.
Let's focus on the subject lines.
2. FOCUS: Focus on capturing the attention of your ideal client through email to increase your community of potential clients who are ready to transform themselves into paying clients. Subject lines can help you attract your ideal clients from the community that is your target audience. Vital to this process is using attention-grabbing subject lines that pique your ideal client's curiosity about what in your email can help them accomplish what's on their mind.
The reward for your focus on subject lines is consistently developing subject lines that earn the attention of your ideal clients, leading to a maximum open rate, which increases your number of engaged potential clients and customers.
Let's flow into profitability by increasing the number of ideal clients who engage with your content and offers.
3. FLOW: Segment your email list to target specific groups of subscribers with narrowly personalized messages with content and specific offers relevant to the particular segments. Monitor your open rates closely and modify future subject lines and ‘calls-to-action' accordingly.
Ready to put what you've learned into action?
Here are three straightforward action steps for writing a compelling subject line that you can implement starting this week:
Be Clear and Specific. Make sure your subject line accurately reflects the content of the email and is specific enough to grab the reader's attention.
- Action Step: Before writing your subject line, summarize the main point of your email in a sentence or two. Then, use this summary as the basis for crafting a clear and specific subject line. You can use Artificial Intelligence tools to help.
Use Persuasive Language. Your subject line should create a sense of urgency or excitement that compels the reader to open the email.
- Action Step: Use power words like “important,” “limited time,” or “exclusive” as appropriate to create a sense of urgency or exclusivity. Also, create subject lines that appeal to the reader's emotions by using language that evokes curiosity, excitement, or fear of missing out.
Keep It Short and Sweet. A short, concise subject line will catch the reader's attention and encourage them to open the email.
- Action Step: Keep your subject line to 50 characters or less. Use active verbs and avoid unnecessary words or phrases that could make the subject line too long or confusing.
Now that you know more about compelling subject lines, what will you do? Let's start with prayer.
