    3. Ignite a sense of urgency. Using the words “limited”, “deal”, or “exclusive” are pretty powerful. Once again, give your potential customers a reason to be interested. 
    4. Offer your offers (or imply it) somewhere in the subject line. Use $ and % to your advantage 
    5. Be sure to include St. Patrick’s Day images somewhere in the email!
