Jay Schwedelson runs through a pile of tactics that sound too dumb to work, like dropping a period after every word or dressing up a subject line as a calendar invite, except the open rates keep climbing anyway. Stick around for the strangely strong hill he's willing to die on involving coworkers, swimming pools, and dance floors.ㅤBest Moments:(01:20) Why a subject line that reads like a calendar invite is lifting opens by 28%.(02:15) The bracketed newsletter trick everyone abandoned, back from the dead and working again.(03:43) Opening a subject line with And or But to trigger a different kind of curiosity.(04:15) A period. After. Every. Word. And the quiet drama it stirs up.(04:46) Dropping next month into your subject line two weeks early, and why people bite.(06:00) Jay's deeply held refusal to see work people in bathing suits or on a dance floor.
