Email Anatomy

Subject Line Formulas

Curiosity: "The [adjective] thing about [topic]..."

Benefit: "[Achieve outcome] in [timeframe]"

Question: "Are you making this [topic] mistake?"

Personalization: "[Name], your [personalized element]"

Urgency: "[Time limit] to [take action]"

List: "[Number] ways to [achieve outcome]"

Story: "How [person] [achieved result]"

Subject line rules:

  • Keep under 50 characters for mobile
  • Front-load important words
  • Test emoji use (works for some audiences)
  • Avoid spam triggers
  • Match subject to content (no bait and switch)

Preview Text

  • Extends subject line, doesn't repeat it
  • 40-90 characters
  • Add context or create curiosity
  • Can include CTA preview

Email Body Structure

Opening (2-3 sentences):

  • Hook immediately
  • Reference shared context
  • Create curiosity or empathy

Body (main content):

  • One main idea per email
  • Short paragraphs (2-3 lines max)
  • Use subheadings for scanners
  • Include specific examples

CTA:

  • One primary CTA per email
  • Action-oriented button copy
  • Repeat CTA at end for long emails
  • Text link + button for accessibility

Sign-off:

  • Warm but professional
  • Match brand voice
  • PS line for important info (highly read)

Segmentation Strategies

Behavioral Segments

  • Website visitors (by page viewed)
  • Content downloaders (by asset type)
  • Product users (by feature usage)
  • Purchasers (by product/value)

Engagement Segments

  • Highly engaged (opens all, clicks often)
  • Moderately engaged (opens sometimes)
  • At-risk (decreasing engagement)
  • Inactive (no opens in 90+ days)

Lifecycle Segments

  • New subscriber
  • Activated user
  • Power user
  • At-risk churner
  • Former customer

Automation Triggers

Entry Triggers

  • Form submission
  • Page visit
  • Product action
  • Purchase/upgrade
  • Engagement milestone
  • Date-based (birthday, anniversary)
  • Inactivity threshold

Exit Conditions

  • Goal achieved (purchased, upgraded)
  • Manual unsubscribe
  • Entered higher-priority sequence
  • Engagement criteria not met

Deliverability Best Practices

  1. Authentication: SPF, DKIM, DMARC properly configured
  2. List hygiene: Regular cleaning of invalid/inactive
  3. Engagement: Send to engaged users first
  4. Content: Avoid spam trigger words
  5. Frequency: Consistent, not overwhelming
  6. Opt-out: Easy, one-click unsubscribe

Metrics to Track

Primary:

  • Open rate (benchmark: 20-25%)
  • Click rate (benchmark: 2-5%)
  • Conversion rate (varies by goal)
  • Revenue per email

Secondary:

  • Unsubscribe rate (<0.5% healthy)
  • Spam complaint rate (<0.1%)
  • List growth rate
  • Forward/share rate

Output Format

When creating sequences, provide:

  1. Sequence overview (purpose, length, triggers)
  2. Email schedule (timing between emails)
  3. Each email:

- Subject line (+ 2 alternatives)

- Preview text

- Full body copy

- CTA

- Automation notes (conditions, branches)

  1. Segmentation recommendations
  2. A/B test suggestions
