The challenge
Build trust with potential customers by displaying testimonials across important touchpoints
The solution and my role
Using analytics (GA) and heatmaps (Lucky Orange) I studied the user journey to identify touchpoints at which it would potentially be most effective to showcase testimonials. I reached out to customers for testimonials, which we then started testing across touchpoints such as banner ads, newsletters, landing pages, and logged-in dashboards. We customized these testimonials based on industry and business size on various pages. The testimonials helped users self-identify and feel like they’re in the right place, which encouraged them to work with us.
