100 ‘Most-Opened’ Subject Lines
Email marketing is a traffic channel, business model and art form, all in one.When someone gives you their email address, it’s your responsibility to send them good content day after day, week after week.
The content in your emails can be links to blog posts, sales videos, webinar registration pages… Whatever you want!
You just need to make sure to send them semi-regular updates so that they don’t forget about you.
When we set up autoresponder sequences, we run specific bonding and promotional sets, which elevates them in our sales sequence.
From there:
• They become an ‘active prospect’ which means they engage with our email.
• They disengage, meaning they stay on the list but don’t do anything - no email opens, no clicks.
• They buy something, which puts them in a buyer sequence • They unsubscribe, which means they don’t get any more email
This special report covers 100 of the BEST subject lines we’ve ever tested, including both click through rates and open rates, arranged from best to worst.
We send about 3 million emails a year in tons of different niches - everything from engagement sequences to promotional sequences.
What follows are the best subject lines we’ve tested:
NOTE: The email list used to generate this report is approximately 6 years old, has mix of different business-related
niches, and has 340,000 people on it currently… We figured the results would give us good statistical significance to share. Newer and more heavily segmented leads and lists will obviously have a better open and clickthrough rate!
Test out the subject lines below and see how they do with your list, and use our data as a baseline!

There’s a lot of very valuable intel here to work through when writing your
own emails…
• By ‘pre-framing’ what’s in the email, you’ll ensure that only the
most actionable folks on your list open and read your email, getting
you more qualified clicks.
• Mix up lower-case and capital-case subject lines to get the open…
• A subject line containing ‘movement’ such as ‘Brand New,’ ‘replay
link…’, ‘last chance’ are the best ways to get an open and a click.
• Surprisingly, (Oops!) is a great way to get your email read (ie. Be
transparent in your emails. If you make a mistake, let them know!)
Now, I wanted to make sure that you could sort the data however you
wanted, so here’s the Excel spreadsheet for this:
