?? Jay's Twenty-Second Scoop ??

Welcome to Jay's Inside Scoop (first time putting this on LINKEDIN)! Always trying to share the latest marketing tips and some irrelevant nonsense at the end of the newsletter....Hope you get something out of it!

I AM YELLING!?

Let your prospects YELL at you!?Call-to-Action Buttons with EXCLAMATION POINTS Increase Click-Through Rates by 17%!!!

EXAMPLES:?

·????????Count Me In!

·????????Send Me The Checklist!

·????????I’m Ready to Go!

Don’t overuse this tactic and have them everywhere.?You can’t be excited about everything unless you work for the Weather Channel.?

Pre-Header Trend…

First, what is a PRE-HEADER?

A preheader is the text following the subject line when an email is previewed. A preheader is one of the first things an email recipient sees when viewing an email.

Almost every email sending platform has an easy way to plug in the pre-header text you want to use.?If for some reason your tool does not here is a link that goes over actual code you can use to put it in yourself - https://www.activecampaign.com/blog/email-preheader

Now the Pre-Header Trend…Stop reading immediately if you are not using the pre-header space for anything other than information about your offer.?It is a total fail to use this valuable real estate for things like “View on a web page’”.?

Now that we know the pre-header should include details about your offer, we can get on to the trend which is to include EMOJIs in the pre-header (see image above).

Test it!?Costs you nothing.?Easy to do.?And over the last 60 days it is increasing open rates by 14%.?

Business to Business Trend:

INDUSTRY Mentioned in Subject Line Increasing Open Rates by 22% Last 30 Days.

EXAMPLE:

·????????Why The Hospitality Industry Will Grow In Q3

Since You Didn’t Ask...

For any new readers of ‘Scoop’ this is where I share stuff that has nothing to do with anything that is actually helpful or useful...

WATCHING:

THE BACHELOR (ABC) – I know I am the only watching this show.?I don’t care.?I am still going to talk about it.?This guy is a total moron.?Tells 3 woman, on 3 consecutive dates that he is in love with them.?How did he think that was going to end well????Doofus.???

TOM BRADY:

Six weeks of the pickup line at school and one syllable answers from any topic he asked his kids about and he was like, “Nah, I would rather get hit by 350-pound dudes again”.????

OSCARS:

These are the best picture nominees.?If I tried harder, I couldn’t know less about any of these movies.?I actually have no idea if “Power of the Dog” has anything to do with a dog and I refuse to find out.?

·????????CODA

·????????Don’t Look Up

·????????Drive My Car
