JIM LOGAN: Testimonials are one of the most under-utilized marketing tactics available to all businesses. What you need to do is, at the end of a successful engagement with a customer, just ask them if they could put a few words on paper about how happy they are with whatever product or service you supplied them.
(voiceover continues)
Ask Customers to Put Their Satisfaction on Paper:.
-Were They Happy with Delivery
-Quality of Product
-The Follow-Through
This could be how happy they were with delivery, the quality of the product, the quality of the workmanship, the thoroughness of the follow-up, just the overall satisfaction they have with your business. That now becomes powerful testimonial that you can use with your prospect to help them become your next customer.
