Everyone can benefit from a good testimonial. Not only are you doing your business a favor, but you really are doing your customers a favor by publishing testimonials. You’re putting their minds at ease somewhat, making them feel better about their purchase.

Exactly. I know I am way more inclined to buy somthing if a friend or somebody I trust recommends it. Makes me feel like I’m getting my money’s worth, or less likely to get ripped off.

There’s nothing better than a referral…if you’re getting great comments get them out there for the world to see! Good to hear the ones you do use are working, keep it up.

This is great advice. I completely agree that client testimonials are the best way to attract more business. Testimonials, even from people potential clients don’t know definitely provides a level of confidence in your ability. Every businessperson should be collecting testimonials.

Like you said, it builds credibility. And that’s a very big step towards closing a sale. When you come well recommended by others it gives people comfort in knowing that you’re good at what you do. It’s one thing for you to say it, it’s another thing when others say it.

Testimonials are an excellent way to convince potential customers of your ability. I know a lot of businesses who don’t want to ‘toot their own horn,’ like you said. It is an important way to develop relationships, though. Especially if you can get your best customers and fans to spread the word themselves.
