What are the best ways to get customer testimonials?
I have to get testimonials from our users, but experiencing difficulty. The methods I have used so far are:
1. Contacting users via email (Response Rate: Poor)
2. Contacting via Whatsapp (Response Rate: Medium)
3. Directly calling them (Response Rate: Poor)
4. Contacting via LinkedIn (Response Rate: Poor)

Offer incentives and make it easy for them to share.

You have to use all your channels at the same time. Apart from the ones you mentioned, put a banner on website, inside product, inside chatbot etc. You need some kind of offer, an incentive for the testimonial, for most users/customers. Doesn't have to be swag or anything, just maybe 1 month extended subscription or something like that. Also, when using channels like email, make sure your emails are actually landing and that (at least) your open rates are good.
for me, encourage happy customers to share their experiences by simply asking them to leave a review it makes a big difference
Hey @zainab_saeed1
Here are some effective ways to obtain customer testimonials:
1. Ask directly: Reach out to satisfied customers and request their feedback.
2. Follow up after purchase: Contact customers shortly after they've used your product or service.
3. Use surveys: Include a testimonial request in your customer satisfaction surveys.
4. Offer incentives: Provide a small reward or discount for customers who submit testimonials.
5. Make it easy: Create a simple form or process for customers to share their experiences.
6. Leverage social media: Monitor and collect positive comments about your brand online.
7. Use case studies: Develop in-depth stories about how your product or service helped customers.
8. Timing matters: Request testimonials when customers are most likely to be satisfied, such as after a successful project completion.
9. Be specific: Ask customers to highlight particular aspects of your product or service.
10. Video testimonials: Invite customers to share their experiences on camera for a more personal touch.
I ask for testimonials immediately after a successful customer interaction or support experience.
