Why this works

**Why this works.** The subject line leads with a specific stat (61% prefer email over cold call) rather than the product name or update, which validates the reader's existing behavior before asking them to engage with new features. The pattern here is "validate the decision before pitching the tool"; you can lift it for any product update or newsletter where you want subscribers to feel smart about their chosen channel before learning what's new.
