Prompt Template

I need compelling email subject lines that will maximize open rates.

The email is about [EMAIL_TOPIC] and the primary goal is [EMAIL_GOAL:select:drive sales,announce something,share information,get a response,build relationship,promote content,request action].

My target audience is [TARGET_AUDIENCE] in the [INDUSTRY] industry. The tone should be [TONE:select:professional,casual,urgent,friendly,authoritative,playful,formal].

Generate [NUMBER_OF_VARIATIONS:number:5-15] unique subject line variations. For each variation, use a different psychological approach such as curiosity, urgency, benefit-focused, personalization, question, number/statistic, fear of missing out, or social proof.

For each subject line provide the character count in parentheses and label the approach used. Keep subject lines under [MAX_CHARACTERS:number:30-80] characters since 85% of users read email on mobile where only 25-30 characters display fully.

Emoji usage preference: [USE_EMOJIS:select:yes include emojis,no emojis,mix of both].

If I have a specific angle or key message I want emphasized, it is: [KEY_MESSAGE?]

Format the output as a numbered list grouped by approach type. Mark the top 3 strongest performers with a star and explain why each is likely to achieve high open rates. For each starred subject line, also suggest a matching preview text (the snippet that appears after the subject line in inbox view).

About Email Subject Line Generator

Most emails fail before anyone reads the first line. If your subject line does not grab attention in a crowded inbox, your message gets buried. Studies show that 47% of recipients decide whether to open an email based on the subject line alone.

The Email Subject Line Generator creates multiple variations for any email campaign, each using a different psychological approach. You describe your [EMAIL_TOPIC], specify your [TARGET_AUDIENCE] and [INDUSTRY], and select your email goal. The output gives you a numbered list of subject lines grouped by approach: curiosity, urgency, social proof, benefit-focused, and more.

Every subject line comes with a character count and approach label, so you can quickly pick the best options for A/B testing. The top three performers are starred with explanations of why they work and matching preview text suggestions. Open the results in Dock Editor to compare variations and pick your strongest options. Need help with the email body too? Try the Cold Email Opener or the Follow-Up Email Writer.
