Here are some tips for creating a high-performing email layout:

1) Use a large font size and ample spacing between lines to make the text easy to read.
2) Place the most important information at the top of the email, as people are more likely to read it first.
3) Use a clear and concise headline to summarize the message.
4) Organize the content into easily scannable sections.
5) Make sure all links and buttons are easy to find and click.
6) Use images and videos sparingly, as they can slow down loading times.

A high-performing email must have a couple of things, in order for the sender to achieve the goal they have set for pushing the email. Great copy is necessary for an email. Just as much value as high resolution images and design add, the copy is where the value will be conveyed to the receiver of the content. By personalizing such emails to the different segments of consumers that are on the receiving end, and sending from a more personal account (rather than a basic company "donotreply" or "info" email), you are humanizing the content, and making the consumer feel more engaged, and willing to interact with another human.

A high-performing email comes down to how well it is executed and if the potential or current customer's needs in whichever stage they are in are fulfilled.

A high-performing email comes down to how it is executed. It should be included with a very professional but engaging subject line - don't bore your reader, get to the point and pull them. 

 

Using the components of where, why, when, what, and who, I see a high performing will all depend on your body of the email, introduction and call to action is written and if it keeps your reader engaged.

In your opinion, what's a successful layout for a high-performing email?

A successful layout for a high-performing email has a subject line that is both relevant to the information contained in the email body, and concise so that the entire text is displayed to the recipient. Conciseness is important throughout the message and especially in the body of the text. The reader should quickly understand why they are receiving this email and how this can make their life easier. The reader needs to be drawn into a CTA where they can decide on what to do next (respond, unsubscribe, etc.).

It involves selecting the right goal and optimizing each part of your email to drive conversation.

Knowing the five whys which are who(relevance), what(what do you want your contact to do with the email), when(when will this content be most valuable to them), where(where your contacts will be needing them which turns out that 48% of emails are opened on a smart phone), why(what is the desired outcome).
