Tips for success
The Description field works best with natural language (i.e., whole sentences). If you’re not sure what to write, consider copying the product or event description from your website, or write as if you’re describing the topic to a friend. Here are some sample descriptions for a product launch:
- The ultra cushioned, ultra comfortable, ultra versatile trail running shoe
- We created the trail running shoe of your dreams, so you can spend less time shopping and more time outside
You can click Generate as many times as you want, until you find a subject line you like. Consider making changes to the Description field for more varied results, or use a generated subject line in the Description field for others like it.
