HOW TO ASK FOR TESTIMONIALS THAT ACTUALLY SELL. β
Testimonials are GOLD.
They build trust.
They prove your value.
They help you get MORE clients.
But most people ask for testimonials the WRONG way.
Bad way: "Can you write me a testimonial?"
Clients freeze.
They do not know what to say.
They never send it.
Good way: ASK SPECIFIC QUESTIONS.
Here is how to ask for testimonials that sell:
STEP 1: ASK SPECIFIC QUESTIONS
Do not just say "Write anything."
Ask questions that get DETAILED answers:
1. What problem did you have before working with me?
2. What results did you get?
3. What was the BEST part of working with me?
4. Would you recommend me to others? Why?
STEP 2: MAKE IT EASY
Send them a template.
Give them examples.
Fill in the blanks.
Example: "Here is a template you can use... Just fill in the blanks."
STEP 3: ASK FOR PERMISSION TO USE THEIR WORDS
"Can I share your feedback on my website and social media?"
Always ask permission.
STEP 4: FOLLOW UP
If they do not reply, send a gentle reminder.
Be kind. Be patient.
That is it.
4 steps. Specific questions. Testimonials that SELL.
Stop asking for vague testimonials.
Start getting SPECIFIC feedback.
Your future clients will thank you.
