Nothing ruins a sales email faster than a bad subject line. The fact is, we’re inundated with poor subject lines, and we no longer have the patience to investigate whether something is spam, a marketing promotion, or a legit sales email. If it doesn’t look like it came from a human, it goes straight to the trash. So if you wrote a persuasive sales email to a prospective customer but have yet to receive an answer, chances are, you sent it with a lackluster subject line. From a purely practical standpoint, a long subject line will get cut off in most inboxes. Better Sales Emails Start With The Subject Lines. Here Are 5 Ways To Fix Yours

B2B emails: To HTML or not to HTML? To my surprise, the choice between using or not using HTML for B2B emails still seems to be a source of serious debate among marketers. “Because we’re dealing with B2B buyers, and they expect direct, one-to-one emails. And plain text gets around filters because filters don’t like images.” “Not really, and that’s certainly not what I get in my inbox, either.” This faulty habit of eschewing HTML due to unwarranted concerns around deliverability and B2B audience expectations plagues many marketers. Here’s the case for why employing HTML in B2B emails is unequivocally the right choice, along with some other B2B email marketing best practices peppered in for good measure. For starters, you can code an HTML email so that it looks and feels like plain text without missing out on beneficial HTML elements, such as hyperlinks and calls to action that offer a baseline level of interactivity with the content of your emails, ultimately generating more leads and sales conversions. Additionally, HTML allows you to include unsubscribe options, a crucial component for many B2B emails.
