Email subject lines. What’s your technique?

[JWM]

I was sitting at my computer a few days ago to send an email to a local business of which I want to provide my services to. I was staring at the subject line and wondered how I was to going to go about writing it.

The email was successful and I received a quick, positive response. But it got me thinking about some of the email subject line techniques you might use when trying to secure clients particularly in the B2B world when simply trying to initiate a conversation with those clients. How do you go about standing out and not coming off as spammy or similar?

Would love to hear your stories, successful or otherwise
