In your opinion, what's a successful layout for a high-performing email?
High-performing emails are human and helpful. They start with a goal and then each part of the email drives the receiver to you the marketer's desired action. For example, a letter of introduction is a great way for a content writer to get in front of a publication editor or content creating agency.
But first, the goal has to be set. The goal is to get the prospect to consider me as a possible writer for his content agency. So it starts with the subject line. It should be positive, interesting, and personal. So, here's one that worked for me. It says, I'm human and I'm helpful.
Subject: Ryan, incredible. Thanks so much for the opportunity to reach out.

A bit about me. I'm an educational content writer and once upon a time a college professor, a historian, and an armchair psychologist.
Today, I write for health, healthcare, educational, and technological industries. I live the best of both worlds. I teach my son and enjoy work as a writer/content marketer/copywriter.
