    Full Podcast Details

    We seem to be talking about emojis on the podcast alot lately!

    Afterall we have run loads of tests on the effectiveness of emojis on Instagram and Twitter.

    But our friend, Jamie Turner from 60 Second Marketer, was noticing a trend when adding an emoji to his email subject line that went against what the “experts” were saying.

    So we teamed up with Jamie to bring you this next experiment!
