· Keep your email short, precise, and on Target
Avoid writing those long emails hoping that they will get a response. You are not there for writing an essay. What works the best is to show them their stress points, where they are lacking, and how you can help them in resolving the same or something that talks about their benefits. Shorter messages have a greater chance of being opened and increase the chance of getting a response to your email.
· Research and Personalizing
If you follow that particular client and you are knowing about his company, interest, some award or something praiseworthy they got recently. Directly mention it in the subject line. People love to read or listen to their applause and by doing this you have increased the chance that your client will open your email.
