Paypal journey
Why this works
**Why this works.** The subject line leads with the business outcome (grow your business) instead of the feature (sell online), so recipients open because they want growth, not because PayPal wants them to click. The pattern here is "outcome before tool"; you can lift it for any feature usage nudge where the user's job-to-be-done matters more than the product capability you're promoting.
