Are you a digital marketer, in sales, or have to send out emails as part of your job? Well, we have some email subject lines for you! The key to a successful email is having a creative subject line. 

Being in the business world can be crazy, especially your inbox! You get countless emails every day; sales emails, coupons, newsletters, you name it! I bet a lot of times you just look at the subject line and then archive the email or delete it. The subject line, the first impression, can be all it takes for you to open up the email, or just toss it out.

Below is a list of 25 creative and compelling email subject lines that you may use and customize for yourself.

25 Irresistible Sales Email Subject Lines

1) “Questions about ______”

 What’s your question? They will need to click your email to know.

2) “______Recommended I get in touch”

Having referrals is very powerful. If you know someone your prospect knows, chances are that he will open your email.

3) “Our next steps”

Great for following up once the connection is made.

4) “Do not open this email”

A company called Manicube used this one. Reverse psychology can definitely work!

5) “X options to get started”

Give a few options of core products or content in the body text of your email

6) “Hi ____ , (question)?”

Questions are very provoking! Most people open question emails.

7) “Know this about (topic)”

Offer a helpful tip about a certain topic your prospect is interested in.

8) “Did you get what you were looking for”?

Great for following up with inbound leads! Maybe ask how you can help them?

9) [all lower case subject line]

Surprisingly, an all lower-case subject line will stand out to your prospect. As most draft emails are capitalized (SomEtIMes tOO MuCh)
