100 Days of Subject Lines: A Cornucopia of Email Marketing Delights

by
"Steal These Subject Lines" written in marker on notebook paper

What’s a subject line that works to get people to sign up for a webinar?

What are the best subject lines to sell high-ticket coaching?

What’s a good subject line I can use to invite people to my nephew’s bar mitzvah?

There’s rarely one clear-cut winner that works in every situation, but I can usually share a handful of suggestions based on my experience.

But since entrepreneurs and other copywriters are constantly asking me that question…

I came up with an easy way to share some of the best subject lines I’ve written… and some of the best I’ve read from other top marketers.

Sharing My Top “Subject Line of the Day” Candidates

… as Youtube Shorts.

I’ve committed to uploading a video every day for the next 100 days… so this is going to become a valuable resource over time.

This has been the most popular one so far:

I want to point out another one I think deserves special attention.

Everyone’s heard of “fear of missing out,” right? This subject line example flips FOMO on its head and addresses the lesser-known “fear of holding on too long.”

Check it out:

Get a bunch of email marketing ideas, inspiration and insights in a flurry of 1-minute videos.

If you take my suggestions, you’ll have more than 3 months worth of subject lines — and that’s if you email your list daily. If you’re mailing weekly, that’s 2 YEARS of subject line templates.

Email less than once a week… shame on you.

I encourage you to subscribe to my channel to decrease the chance that you’ll miss any of these copywriting nuggets.

Full disclosure: I may not share any good bar mitzvah subject lines in the first 100 days.

This will also be a great opportunity for you to see every shirt I have in my wardrobe. You know, if you’re into that sort of thing.

**Update: Here are all the subject lines in swipeable format**

I decided to do 101 videos — and a few of them highlighted 2 or 3 subject lines.

Several people have shown me their open rates shooting through the roof…

FB post saying: "Donnie Bryant you a genius. 52% open rate from a simple subject line."
Facebook comment saying, "My open rates are at 48% and above due to you"

… and one brother told me he’s ADDICTED now.

But I know it takes a long time to watch 101 videos — and it’s impossible to quickly scan through and see if one fits for the email you’re sending out today.

So I’ma hook y’all up…

Here are all 101 subject lines from my Subject Line of the Day series:
