It\u2019s also easy to forget there\u2019s a real person on the other side deciding, in a second, whether they feel like reading any of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Humor is one of the few tools that can change that feeling quickly, even though it\u2019s not always easy to pull off. In this article, we\u2019ll look at a handful of humor styles that work in email and how to use them intentionally. For small businesses, that can lead to higher opens, more clicks, and a brand people actually remember when they need what you sell.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"post-page__colored-blocks post-page__colored-blocks--update\">\n<h3 class=\"title title--regular title--size-medium title--weight-bold color-darkest\" style=\"margin-bottom: 12px\">Key takeaways:<\/h3>\n<ul class=\"text text--size-medium color-darkest\" style=\"margin: 0;padding-left: 20px\">\n<li>Humor works when it mirrors your reader\u2019s actual life and frustrations, so the email makes people feel understood, not marketed at.<\/li>\n<li>Choose one humor style per email (self-own, pain point, pun, inside joke, or twist) and make sure it points back to a clear message or offer.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t sacrifice clarity for cleverness, if the joke makes the point harder to understand, cut the joke.<\/li>\n<li>Measure if humor works by tracking opens, clicks, replies, unsubscribes, and forwards against your normal benchmarks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-humor-actually-works-in-emails\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-humor-actually-works-in-emails\"><\/span>Why humor actually works in emails<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When an email makes you smile, you don\u2019t experience it as \u201cmarketing\u201d first but as a human moment. But the deeper reason humor works has nothing to do with comedy. It\u2019s about recognition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you make someone laugh, you\u2019re proving you understand them: their day, their frustrations, their industry, the specific kind of tired they are on a Tuesday afternoon. As conversion copywriter Lianna Patch puts it: \u201c<em>People don\u2019t buy products. They buy feelings that come with them.<\/em>\u201d Laughter is one of the fastest ways to create that feeling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.oracle.com\/cx\/new-cx-study-customer-happiness\">Oracle&#8217;s Happiness Report<\/a>, 72% of people would choose a brand that makes them laugh over a competitor. That&#8217;s a majority of your potential customers actively rewarding brands that don&#8217;t take themselves too seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That&#8217;s the emotional core of good email marketing, humor or not. Laughter is just the shortcut.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"post-page__colored-blocks post-page__colored-blocks--update\">\n<h3 class=\"title title--regular title--size-medium title--weight-bold color-darkest\" style=\"margin-bottom: 12px\">The key insight<\/h3>\n<p class=\"text text--size-medium color-darkest\" style=\"margin: 0\">Humor is an emotional signal. It tells your subscriber: I wrote this for you specifically, not for a generic person who might be on my list. That signal is what builds the kind of loyalty no discount code can buy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-types-of-humor-that-work-in-email-marketing\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-types-of-humor-that-work-in-email-marketing\"><\/span>5 types of humor that work in email marketing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not all humor is equal. Different styles work for different audiences and moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-self-deprecating-humor-the-safest-kind\">1. Self-deprecating humor (the safest kind)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poking fun at your own product, your team, or your industry is low-risk and high-reward. It signals confidence, honesty, and humanity, three things marketing copy is usually missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The structure is simple: admit something true that\u2019s slightly unflattering, then own it completely. A <a href=\"https:\/\/academy.siteground.com\/en\/re-engagement-emails\/\" id=\"22795\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">re\u2011engagement email<\/a> that says, \u201cWe noticed you haven\u2019t opened lately. We cried a little, ate a cookie, and decided to win you back\u201d injects vulnerability and charm into what\u2019s usually a dry message. Humor makes the outreach feel personal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Online liquor store Drizly once sent an email full of lorem ipsum by mistake, then followed up with \u201clol, wtf was that\u201d and a discount code called LOREMIPSUM. They turned an error into a self-deprecating moment that actually made subscribers like them more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/academy.siteground.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/oops_email_drizzly.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26338\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-pain-point-humor-the-most-effective-kind\">2. Pain-point humor (the most effective kind)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Take a real frustration your audience lives with and exaggerate it until it becomes absurd. This works because of recognition. When someone reads a copy that names their exact problem \u2014 not a vague approximation of it, the specific Tuesday-at-4pm version of it \u2014 they feel seen. And feeling seen is the fastest path to a click.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A fitness coach can mock the gap between January gym motivation and February reality. A web designer can joke about exported files named \u201cFINAL\u201d and \u201cFINAL FINAL v3\u201d. If your audience has felt it, you can joke about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Death Wish Coffee has framed running out of coffee like a horror movie plot, riffing on Friday the 13th in their emails. It\u2019s funny because the fear is real for their audience: they\u2019re exaggerating a genuine pain point, not inventing one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"760\" height=\"1045\" src=\"https:\/\/academy.siteground.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/Death-wish-coffee-campaign.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26334\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-puns-and-wordplay-use-sparingly-but-use-them\">3. Puns and wordplay (use sparingly, but use them)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Everyone rolls their eyes at puns. Everyone secretly enjoys them. That little eye-roll? It means the pun worked. It caught their attention, made them react, and that\u2019s what makes it memorable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Research consistently shows pun-based subject lines outperform generic ones (even the obvious ones) because they create a micro-moment of surprise that breaks the monotony of the inbox.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Subject line examples that work:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Florist: <em>&#8220;We&#8217;re rooting for you \ud83c\udf31&#8221;<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Coffee brand: <em>&#8220;Espresso yourself.&#8221;<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pet shop: <em>&#8220;Pawsome deals end Sunday.&#8221;<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rule: a pun earns its place when it connects to something real in the email. A pun that exists just for the joke misses the point. A pun that bridges your subject line to your actual offer is a hook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-inside-jokes-the-most-bonding-kind\">4. Inside jokes (the most bonding kind)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nothing signals &#8220;I&#8217;m one of you&#8221; faster than a joke only your audience would get. Industry-specific humor: references to shared tools, shared nightmares, shared jargon \u2014 creates a sense of belonging that generic content never can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Morning Brew, for example, constantly winks to finance in-jokes, niche business memes, and recurring \u201ccharacters\u201d in the news cycle, jokes that make no sense unless you\u2019ve been following along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"901\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/academy.siteground.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/screencapture-emaillove-email-inspiration-from-morning-brew-296-2026-03-31-09_24_00.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26335\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And Cards Against Humanity has turned ridiculous Black Friday stunts into a tradition their audience feels part of: charging more, selling nothing, or listing ridiculous items. Both have built cult-level loyalty partly because of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"665\" height=\"875\" src=\"https:\/\/academy.siteground.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/03\/Cards_against_humanity.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26336\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For small business owners: what\u2019s the joke only your customers would get? The one that\u2019s so niche it would mean nothing to anyone outside your world? That\u2019s the joke worth putting in an email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-the-unexpected-twist-the-most-shareable-kind\">5. The unexpected twist (the most shareable kind)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Set up an expectation. Break it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The twist works because it rewards attention. Subscribers who read all the way through feel like they got something: a joke, a reveal, a moment of surprise. That feeling makes them more likely to click, more likely to remember you, and significantly more likely to forward the email to a friend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Think: a \u201c50% off\u201d subject line that turns out, in the body copy, to be \u201c50% off\u2026 your stress, because this tool now does the boring part for you,\u201d then smoothly pivots into the actual (smaller but still real) discount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-subject-line-humor-vs-body-copy-humor-two-different-skills\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"subject-line-humor-vs-body-copy-humor-two-different-skills\"><\/span>Subject line humor vs. body copy humor: Two different skills<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most advice on funny emails treats subject lines and body copy as the same thing. They\u2019re not. Getting one right doesn\u2019t automatically mean you\u2019ll get the other right and mixing up the approach is one of the most common reasons a \u201chumorous\u201d email falls flat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-subject-line-humor\">Subject line humor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A subject line has roughly 40\u201350 characters to do everything: earn the open, set a tone, and create enough curiosity or recognition that clicking feels like the obvious next move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means subject line humor needs to be immediate. The joke has to land on the first read, without setup. The formats that work best here are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-bluntly-honest-confessions\">Bluntly honest confessions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis is a shameless bribe to open\u201d or \u201cYes, this is a sales email\u201d call out what\u2019s happening and disarm skepticism in one line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-broken-cliches-and-flipped-phrases\">Broken clich\u00e9s and flipped phrases<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Take something familiar and twist it once, like \u201cNew year, same beautiful chaos\u201d or \u201cLimited-time offer (for real this time).\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-exaggerated-overreactions\">Exaggerated overreactions<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lines like \u201cEverything is under control (we think)\u201d or \u201cWe need to talk about your cart\u201d heighten a small situation just enough to be funny, not confusing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What doesn\u2019t work: <\/strong>jokes that require context to land, references that only make sense if you already know what the email is about, or wordplay so layered it needs a second read. In a subject line, if someone has to think, you\u2019ve already lost them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-body-copy-humor\">Body copy humor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"h-body-copy-humor-email-body-copy-humor-has-the-opposite-problem-you-have-room-which-means-you-have-enough-rope-to-hang-yourself-with-the-risk-isn-t-that-the-joke-won-t-land-it-s-that-you-ll-keep-going-after-it-lands-explaining-it-into-the-ground-and-arriving-at-your-email-cta-with-no-momentum-left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/academy.siteground.com\/en\/email-body\/\" id=\"25695\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Email body<\/a> copy humor has the opposite problem. You have room which means you have enough rope to hang yourself with. The risk isn\u2019t that the joke won\u2019t land, it\u2019s that you\u2019ll keep going after it lands, explaining it into the ground, and arriving at your <a href=\"https:\/\/academy.siteground.com\/en\/email-cta\/\" id=\"23733\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">email CTA<\/a> with no momentum left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Good body copy humor follows a three-beat structure:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Setup<\/strong>: Establish the bit. Name the pain, the absurdity, or the premise. Keep it short, one or two sentences maximum.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Payoff:<\/strong> The punchline, the reveal, or the escalation. This is the moment the reader rewards you with a smile. It should arrive before they expect it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pivot<\/strong>: The clean turn toward your actual point. This is where most brands lose the thread. They stay in the joke too long and the CTA doesn\u2019t feel like the obvious next step anymore. The pivot should feel like the natural conclusion of the joke.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-map-your-humor-to-the-right-moment\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"map-your-humor-to-the-right-moment\"><\/span>Map your humor to the right moment<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Humor is an emotion, and emotions belong in specific places in your <a href=\"https:\/\/academy.siteground.com\/en\/marketing-funnel\/\" id=\"25048\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">marketing funnel<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/academy.siteground.com\/en\/best-welcome-emails-examples\/\" id=\"20171\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Welcome emails<\/strong><\/a>: Self-deprecating humor sets your voice immediately.

If your tone has always been polished and professional, going playful without warning can feel jarring \u2014 like a stranger cracking a joke in a business meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The solution is a permission layer: a few small signals that tell your audience your voice is loosening up, before it actually does:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Add a PS line with a light touch.<\/strong> A single line at the end of an otherwise normal email \u2014 something like \u201cPS. We\u2019re working on something a little different for next week. Just saying.\u201d \u2014 plants a seed without committing to anything. It also gets opened: PS lines have disproportionately high read rates because they feel personal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Let one sentence breathe.<\/strong> In your next regular email, swap one stiff, formal sentence for something slightly more human. \u201cHonestly, this one took us a while to get right.\u201d That\u2019s enough. It starts recalibrating what subscribers expect from your voice.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Reference your audience\u2019s reality, not just their goals.<\/strong> Most marketing emails speak to where subscribers want to be. One sentence about where they actually are: the frustration, the Monday morning feeling, the thing that\u2019s not working yet, builds the kind of recognition that makes humor land when it arrives.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The permission layer matters most for two groups: new subscribers (who haven\u2019t established a relationship with your voice yet) and long-term subscribers who joined during a more formal era of your brand. For everyone else who already expects warmth and personality from you, you can skip it.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"post-page__colored-blocks post-page__colored-blocks--update\">\n<h3 class=\"title title--regular title--size-medium title--weight-bold color-darkest\" style=\"margin-bottom: 12px\">The timing principle<\/h3>\n<p class=\"text text--size-medium color-darkest\" style=\"margin: 0\">You don\u2019t need to warm up your entire list before one April Fools email. But if humor is going to become a regular part of your <a href=\"https:\/\/academy.siteground.com\/en\/create-email-marketing-strategy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">email marketing strategy<\/a>, not just a one-off, the permission layer is what prevents the tonal whiplash that increases unsubscribes over time. Build the relationship first. Then make them laugh.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-rules-to-not-make-it-weird\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-rules-to-not-make-it-weird\"><\/span>5 rules to not make it weird<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-anchor-every-joke-to-something-real\">1. Anchor every joke to something real<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every joke should connect to a real pain, a real product, or a real benefit. If you removed the humor, the email should still make sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-don-t-sacrifice-clarity-for-cleverness\">2. Don&#8217;t sacrifice clarity for cleverness<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If a subscriber has to decode the joke to understand what you\u2019re selling, you\u2019ve lost them.
