Barbecues, fireworks and hot dogs: there’s lots to love about the 4th of July. While Independence Day is a celebration for all Americans, it also presents a unique opportunity for small business owners.
Last year the average American consumer planned to spend $75 in the lead up to the fourth of July. And only a quarter of these sales were on patriotic purchases to showcase shoppers’ American pride. This leaves a large part of the pie for all businesses to grab a slice of regardless of what they sell.
In order to maximize your sales during holiday, you’ll need to utilize email marketing. Not only is it the most profitable digital marketing channel, but it’s also one of the best ways to keep in touch with your customers.
To make sure that your emails stand out in your subscribers’ inboxes, and that people will open them, you’ll need some great subject lines. This is particularly important as 35% of people base their decision whether or not to open an email solely on its subject line.
So to give you and your store the best chance at making sales this 4th of July, we’ve curated this list of 44 subject lines. Feel free to use them yourself or as inspiration when coming up with your own.
