“That’s True About Me!”

I spent my formative years watching Sesame Street.

I know what NCLB stands for.

I have an iPod or cell phone.

I know what ESEA stands for.

I know who said “You can have your car painted any color you like, as long as it’s black.”

Based on segments, how might your marketing efforts change?

I use email;• To communicate with

friends and family• To communicate with

colleagues and for general business and organizational needs

• To sell something

Email/Websites

I know why the letter “F” is so important to product developers, marketing departments, and website

creators.

• Words to avoid in subject lines:• Free! No cost• 50% 0ff! Discount• Opportunity• “Stop” or “stops”

• Don’t over-generalize

• Examples: (from SCETV)

• “50+ CEU & Reading Credit Courses Begin October”• “Florence 1 is Funding TeacherLine Courses Again”

Email Subject Lines

Now that you have seen where people spend most of their “eye” time, and have discussed email subject lines, how would your email or website marketing

change to be more effective with the reader/viewer?

If you are sending out emails, come up with a subject line that not only avoids “spam words”, but is specific

and enticing for your area.
