Add Customer Reviews
Positive customer reviews (testimonials) are an increasingly important factor in a person's decision to visit and use your business. In fact, a majority of online shoppers read at least one review before deciding to purchase from a business!
Adding testimonials to your website can help you win the trust of prospective customers and close them faster.
This guide walks you through how to use the Testimonial component to quickly add customer reviews to your website!
Collect Your Reviews
Start by collecting all of the customer reviews that you want to feature on your new website.
If you have existing reviews in online spaces (such as Yelp or a Google Business account), you can copy and re-use these reviews on your website.
If you don’t have any existing customer reviews, reach out to current or past customers and request that they share a few kind words about working with you.
Once you have some reviews collected, you can move on to featuring them on your website!
