I almost didn’t send it.

The subject line felt too short. Too weird. Too… random.

But I was in a rush, had 10 minutes to get the email out, and didn’t feel like overthinking.

So I typed:

“Still struggling?”

That was it.

No hype. No emojis. No urgent callouts.
Just two little words that hit a nerve.

I hit send.

24 hours later?

$4,382 in commissions.

That’s when I realized something big:

It’s not about being clever. It’s about being felt.

Why Most Subject Lines Suck

Most people write subject lines like they’re trying to win a creativity contest.

They want to sound smart. Catchy. Impressive.

Problem is—nobody opens emails to admire the writer.
They open because something inside them needs to.

Your subject line should do one thing:

Interrupt the scroll.

That’s it.

If your reader is half-asleep, one eye open, thumb on autopilot…
You’ve got two seconds to stop the scroll cold.

Try stuff like:

  • “Hey, this is awkward…”
  • “You probably won’t like this”
  • “I almost quit last night”
  • “You still stuck?”

Short. Disruptive. Emotional.

They don’t sell. They poke.

That’s what gets clicks.

The Email Behind the Subject

Here’s the funny part.

The email itself was nothing special.

Just a short story about the time I almost gave up on email marketing.
How I thought maybe I wasn’t cut out for it.
How one message changed everything.

Then a link to my system.

But the combination of those two things:

  • A subject line that stirred curiosity
  • A message that told the truth

That’s what created the spike in sales.

The Power of Simplicity

I’ve had subject lines that took 30 minutes to write… and flopped.

And I’ve had subject lines I wrote in 7 seconds do $3k+ in sales.

Lesson?

Don’t overthink it.

Write like you’re texting a friend.
Speak to the moment they’re in.
Ask a question that stings a little.
Make them wonder, “What’s this about?”

That’s when they open.
That’s when they read.
That’s when they click.

And What Did I Link To?

That’s the best part.

I didn’t link to some generic offer.

I linked to the system I personally built.
The one that got me out of debt.
The one that pays me more per day than I used to make in a month.

It’s called the Next Level Success System.
