Still stuck for subject lines for your year-end emails?
Your subject line is like your outer envelope for direct mail.
A window into your message.
Make sure it’s open enough to give a glimpse of something intriguing… urgent… exciting… emotional… shocking… funny… useful… anything compelling to grabs folks’ attention.
