1. Use numbers. Numbers are your email subject line’s best friends.
Extensive A/B tests by email platform Campaign Monitor found subject lines with numbers achieved a 57 percent better open rate than those without.
2. Remember, characters count.
Next, remember real estate for your subject lines is very limited. Desktops usually display about 60 characters and mobile devices about 25 to 30.
3. Use these 10 words that increase open rates: thanks, golden, iPhone, breaking, advice, course, thank you, exclusive, review, top stories
4. Skip these 10 words that decrease open rates: get rid of, secret of, shocking, what you need to know, won’t believe, quickest, aim, call, put, 2 for 1.
5. Do your own A/B testing.

12 email tips

Business email tips, how to compose the best email?

1. Leave the TO field blank until you are ready to press SEND.

2. Use the SUBJECT line to inform rather than simply to identify; it should read like a headline that summarizes your message and draws in the reader.

3. Base your message content on your receiver’s need to know. Consider journalism’s five W’s: Who, What, When, Where, Why (and sometimes How).

4. Use standard grammar and spelling. Go easy on the acronyms, abbreviations and jargon.

5. Use short words, short sentences (eight to 12 words) and short paragraphs (50 words or fewer), with a line of space between paragraphs.

6. Use bullet points and numbers to organize information into tidy chunks.

7. Fill no more than one laptop computer screen with your message.

8. Keep your spell-checking function on, but still reread and proofread your message before sending it out.

9. Avoid attachments whenever possible. If an attachment is necessary, add it before you start to compose your email. We’ve all received or sent emails that refer to missing documents.

10. Reply the same business day, even if it’s just to confirm receipt and advise the sender when you will respond in full.

11. Respond to all questions posed, and try to anticipate others to reduce the number of back-and-forth messages.

12. In an ongoing thread, change the SUBJECT line if the topic changes.

Facebook Groups

Good read on #facebook #groups, why these can be of value for your brand: “If your brand starts a Facebook group, think of yourself as a facilitator rather than a marketer or blogger. You’ll lose the group if you only promote your own work. Based on the groups I’ve been a part of, though, the group owners seem to hit a sweet spot when 70 percent of the posts come from directly the members.” 

 

Millenials facing 3 problems

Posted on by

Striking similarities with my own experience as a non-millennial. Isn’t this a general company problem and are the millennials the ones finally having the balls to address this? #digital #transformation

1. Using mind-numbingly outdated software and internal processes.
2. Being managed by someone entirely incapable.
3. Working for a company that’s all talk and no walk.
