Scary Good Email Marketing Tips for Halloween
Even though it doesn’t seem like it, Halloween can be a great holiday to use email marketing for. At this time of the year, everyone is ready to snuggle up in a blanket with their cup of coffee watching the leaves fall. You can design emails for your subscribers that include the elements of fall to create an email that appeals to them this time of year.
Adding some festive flair to your emails doesn’t mean that it’ll detract from the message, either. Most people will appreciate the design, even if it’s just for a little while, so they have something different to look at in their inbox. Below, our team has prepared some great tips for the fall season:
1. Pull people in by using emojis in the Subject Lines
Before they even see your content, the first thing that your subscribers see when they get your email is the subject line. Focusing on a great subject line and preheader is essential to get your subscribers to open your email. Using emojis can be a fun and festive way to grab their attention! Check out the example below to get some inspiration.
2. Use one of our fall templates
