I recently rewrote an email for a client who was inviting people to join a workshop.
There were two simple changes I made that made it much more likely to work.
First, I made the invitation feel more personal.
I changed the subject line from:
“Invitation: [Workshop Name]”
To:
“You’re invited to an exclusive [Workshop Name]”
And positioned it as an “opportunity” instead of just a workshop.
Second, I flipped the order of the email.
The original led with who it was for… and buried what they’d actually get.
So I rewrote it to lead with value:
“In 60 minutes you’ll get:”
Then listed three clear outcomes.
This is the kind of thing most people never notice in their own writing.
Small changes.
Big difference.
If you want help, send me something you’ve written and I’ll let you know if I can help.
