My email campaign went out with a huge typo in the subject line

I was sending a promo blast to about 2,000 subscribers for my side hustle last Thursday, and I meant to write 'Exclusive Offer Inside' but my finger slipped and it went out as 'Exclusive Otter Inside'. I had to send a follow-up email an hour later just laughing at myself and clarifying, but I'm curious if anyone has a good double-check system before hitting send on big emails?

My buddy got so mad at his own writing last week. He spent an hour on an email, sent it, then immediately made his wife read it out loud. He heard three typos in the first two sentences. Said it sounded like a different person wrote it, some weird robot version of him.

My friend did that and found a typo in her own name, which was a new low.
