Subject lines are one of the first things your subscribers see when they go into their inbox and have a proven and measurable impact on whether they go on to open, click and convert. So it is no surprise that the subject line (SL) is one of the first and most frequent variable tests conducted by email marketers searching for that most holy of grails; the perfect subject line.

To find out why, we’d like you to tell us which of these Email-Worx subject lines you think generated the best opens and or clicks?
