S1. E4 - How to collect testimonials to boost your business
Manage episode 300957004 series 2975213
Did you know 93% of consumers read online reviews before buying a product?
The reality is many business owners don’t feel comfortable asking someone to review their business. Whether it’s out of fear that they won’t like what they hear, or that it just feels plain rude.
But testimonials and reviews are just another version of word of mouth. We can crow on about how great we are, how amazing our products or service offerings are, but you see, as human’s, we’re not silly, and most of us can be quite sceptical.
In today's episode, Leeha chat's about:
- The power of the testimonial
- What makes a great testimonial
- How to ask for testimonials without that icky feeling
- Where to use testimonials.

A FINAL QUOTE FROM LEEHA
Why are testimonials so powerful? Because people are putting their name to their experience. They’re shouting to the world that this business delivered for them. But, If they give a testimonial and the business doesn't live up to what they said, their reputation is on the line. And, it’s this perception that makes us as consumers more likely to purchase from a company when they’ve got great testimonials.
