Send a candygram: 14 sweet subject lines for Valentine’s Day

Special occasions are a great opportunity to give your email marketing a boost — especially during the first quarter of the year, when services and retail industries tend to see a slowdown. Luckily, Valentine’s Day ushers in the first of the major consumer holidays. And who couldn’t use a sweet treat?

Last year, consumers spent an average of $142.31 on the occasion, bringing U.S. spending for the holiday to a record $18.9 billion. We even compiled a list of standout subject lines and Valentine’s Day emails that captured our hearts. This February, spread the love and get your business in on the action.

If you need inspiration, we handpicked 14 of our favorite Valentine’s Day subject lines to get your started. Remember, not every Valentine’s email needs to be romance-focused. Valentine’s can be equally shared by friends and families, singles and couples, florists and restaurants, retailers, and more!
