Building Credibility Through Testimonials

By: Kaitlyn Miller

When you want to build trust and credibility among your customers and prospective clients, the best way to do it is to have them actually state your assets and benefits. Not you, but your clients. One counselor even swear that it is ten times more powerful to have someone say good things about your business instead of telling everybody about it yourself.

That’s right. No matter how many times you claim to be the best company that can provide the best blah-blah customer service, no one would believe you…not unless you have actual customers and clients to vouch for it.

When you’re looking at a new product or newly opened shop, isn’t it that the first thing you’re going to look for are satisfied customers, right? You would definitely want to check whether what they’re saying is true based on the reaction of the people who actually tried it. Are they happy about the product or service? Was the product or service up to their expectations? Are there any complaints? What can they say about the kind of service they received?

When prospective customers browse your business brochures or catalogs, there is one fool-proof way to build a relationship with your customers based on trust; and that is through testimonials.

Indeed, testimonials can make or break your success in your business niche. The testimonies that your customers make for your brochure printing pieces and flyers, or even with your postcards, spell the increase or decrease in your sales and leads. Or worse case scenario: your prospects throw your business brochures in the trash, along with the other junk mail.

Smart business owners who have been in the business for so long and who have been successful at it would tell you that testimonials can mean the difference between accomplishing what you’ve set out to do and totally losing it. A good marketing campaign just can’t do without a good testimonial. Most moneymaking websites even dedicate one page for testimonials. And the most effective marketing collaterals like your brochures have one thing in common â€" great testimonials.

This is why you need to include them in your brochures if you’re going to create one for your business. A great testimonial to vouch for your business can provide ten times more credibility and trust than any marketing strategy can. What’s more, it’s free. So grab one now and see how your profits grow.
