Why does a good subject line matter?
You might have crafted an incredible email, with stunning images, a seamless layout, gripping copy, and effective CTAs – but it won’t matter a bit if nobody opens it.
The subject line is the #1 contributor to successful open rates.
After the subject line, the remaining key factors are the From Name and Preview Text. But the subject line is what immediately catches our attention, and if it's ineffective, we move on.
And why wouldn’t we? We live in a fast-paced world, and our time/attention is our greatest asset.

Never, never, never underestimate the power and importance of a great subject line!
