Full definition
Testimonials are genuine customer accounts of your product. With a full name, photo, and real results, a testimonial is worth 10x an anonymous quote. Testimonials reduce buying resistance.
📌
Why it matters
A good testimonial answers a specific objection. Its job is not to flatter you but to remove the worry stopping the reader from getting in touch.
🧮 A worked example
Instead of "great service, highly recommend" — "I was worried it would take months; in practice we had a solution within a fortnight". The second answers the real fear.
⚠️ The common mistake
Collecting generic praise. Ask the customer what worried them before they started — the answer to that is the testimonial that sells.
