Once you have crafted an email with quality content, and a clear call to action, it’s time to tag your affiliate links.
Within your email, it’s important to tag your affiliate links, to identify who clicked on your links.
This will enable you to see the total amount of clicks you received from that email broadcast.
It’s super important to have a great subject line because this is what will determine if your email is opened or not.
I like to create subject lines, that are somewhat witty and attention-grabbing. My open rate for my emails is usually around 30-40% which is very good.
If you are not great with creating great subject lines. ConvertKit has A/B testing, to help you increase your open rate. How does it work?
Create two subject lines, and ConvertKit will start to send both emails out to a portion of your subscribers.
The subject line, that performs the best, will be sent out to the remainder of your email subscribers.
