3 Unique And Fun Ways To Make Your Emails Stand Out
1. Jazz it up with a pun:
A little humor goes a long way in making your emails stand out from the rest. Add in a clever pun to let your recipient know you’re not taking yourself too seriously and that you appreciate the lightheartedness of email communication. Putting the pin at the beginning of the email will ensure that they see it in their inbox before they open it, which will encourage their curiosity about what you have to say.
2. Insert an interesting quote:
If you’re stuck for something to say or just want to make your emails memorable, try adding in a quote from someone else who said it better. It adds an extra level of depth and gives the recipient something new to think about. You can either add it to the copy of your email or create a fun little graphic for it.
3. End with a riddle:
If you really want to get creative and have some fun with your emails, why not end them off with a riddle? It's a great way to keep the conversation going and lets you leave your recipient on an intriguing note. Plus, it can be an excellent icebreaker if you’re emailing someone new!
Example Email
For more context into how memorable a unique email can be, here is a screenshot of an email I received all the way back in April that I still remember today! I remember reading the subject line and thinking... huh? Then clicking to find out what that meant.
The part of the email that you don't see in the screenshot is the second half, where she explains why Empowered Social Media should work with her own business and how the partnership would benefit us. And if I’m being completely honest, I wouldn’t have opened the email if it had begun with that, since I receive similar emails all the time.
In Conclusion
