Bad Subject Lines+Bad Email Content=Disaster!
So we all have our set of creative messages for our subject bar to get our subscribers to OPEN the mail so they can see what the offer is right?
Good!
One major focus when setting up your email campaign including the
“Follow Up Sequence” as well as “Broadcast Messages” is to be creative with the subject line. Yes, making it look interesting enough to grab attention and build that sense of curiosity or “hey this offer looks like something I want” thought process.
While these subject line captures are usually honest from most of us..
yep (you know who you are..)
Some folks just don’t get it.
Over the past few weeks, some jerk out there has been teaching affiliate marketers that market to affiliates complete crap!
This is so mis leading..
“Congratulations You’ve Made A Commission”
What moron is telling newbie affiliates to do this? It’s THE WRONG WAY and it will discredit you if you try to pull off a tactic like this.
I am an affiliate marketer and it pisses me off when I see this in a subject line thinking its one of my vendors.
I myself looked at one thinking it was from a vendor I do affiliate promotions for, then I some more. What a waste of effort and time. It’s one thing to get someone to open your sent email.
But it’s whats inside that counts.
So here is what the body of the content says…
Dear Rhonda
If I said to you this industry is full of BS would you agree? (Yes I would Agree and this is BS right here in this line after reading the subject line.)
