From Convio, a helpful, short tipsheet, Tips for Breakthrough Subject Lines (PDF; registrations required). The tips:
- Substance over style
- Watch the length
- Support the “From” line
- Write for deliverability
- Utilize deadlines to create a sense of urgency
- Be proactive
- Test, test, test
I urge you to read this. The subject line is the most impactful thing you create in an email.
