They say it makes all the difference.
A good subject line will get your readers
to open the email, something the majority
of us don’t do on any mailing list email.
(funny, since the real good stuff is often
way down at the PS)
Take the email this morning.
I had 3 killer ideas for a subject line..
ended up putting one of them in the body of
the email.
The SMART thing to do would have been to
choose one.
The SMARTER thing to do would be to TEST
BOTH.. but I was in a hurry.
So I tried to MERGE the two and came up
with the mess you saw.
And likely deleted without reading.
Too bad.
It was a great book for any author or
entrepreneur who wants more income with
less work.
So after getting some good COACHING, I
decided to fess up and send this note to
you.
Another great COPY principle.. the truth is
usually the best option.
If you haven’t seen the dumb subject,
you’ll probably find it in your TRASH
unopened.
Or just go take a look here:
Read about the book Brian Tracy said was
the best on the subject.
I’m using it to train my staff and author
coaching clients.
Really.. a gem.
And the usual DOZENS of BONUSES when you
buy today.. including two that I know are
going to make you thousands of dollars.
Just get the book.. look through the
bonuses, and look for the info or JV
partner that will take you to the next
level in our BONUS GIFT package.
Thanks for sticking with me while I re-
learn these basic principles.
Enjoy the book.

PS. Oh.. yeah.. I used one more copywriting
principle on you..
Way up at the top. I talked about how the
best stuff is buried in the body of the
copy.
Won’t make you read bad stuff.. but since
you got this far.. I think it helped.
Lesson here is.. save something great for
the PS.. and hint at it to keep the reader
engaged.
Now.. go get the book, the fabulous
bonuses.. and be more successfull.
Add a comment totell me how you
liked my message today. And don’t

want to promote.
Did you learn something?
Did I?
Good job, Warren! 🙂 My general rules for subject lines are:
1) 7 words/50 characters
2) A question that could elicit a resounding yes
3) Personalize with dynamic data (typically first name)

So let’s see..
I had six words.
There was a question. (hope it’s a yes) 🙂
2 out of 3.
I know.. shouldn’t be about me. I may be an interesting person.. but not near as interesting as the reader.
Thanks for the lesson.

One suggestion. Outsource your Facebook status updates. You said you were watching the book “sour to the top”. However, I will say this – if anyone can take something “sour” and make it “soar” it would be you, ‘cuz your work is “sweet”! ;-D
Keep up the good work!

I especially like what mari says about numbers of words and characters. I tend to be too long winded and I am trying to get a little better.
I don’t, however, seek “a resounding yes.” I encourage readers to talk the talk if they are going to walk the walk.
Thx for your input.

Bonuses don’t help sales. They end up cheapening both the product and the bonuses. But don’t take my word for it. Test of course.
Even the word “Bonus” hurts sales.

Okay, Warren, I’m leaving a comment here just to test how well Google picks up and sends out alerts. You asked me to mention my name and website in the body of the comment, so here goes:
I’m Susan Sloate
My novel is FORWARD TO CAMELOT
My website is http://www.ForwardtoCamelot.com
Let’s see if it really works!
Thanks for the great email short course — it’s a gem! I’ve already set up a MySpace page thanks to you — appreciate your help!
