📸 "Hey, can I film a quick video of your reaction?" That simple question helped a car detailing business combine the power of Google reviews with authentic video testimonials. 🏆 Here's how Ben from Bennys Detailing Studio is crushing it with testimonials: → Captures jaw-dropping "before vs after" moments right when customers see their transformed cars → Naturally collects video testimonials while they're beaming with excitement (just a phone + mic setup!) → Seamlessly blends these videos with his 5-star Google reviews using Testimonial Donut ✨ The genius part? This two-punch approach solves a key trust challenge: • Google reviews show consistent excellence over time • Video testimonials add that raw, authentic emotion you can't fake 🎥 One of my favourite details: Ben keeps it simple. No scripts. No fancy equipment. Just happy customers gushing over their cars looking better than showroom-new. 📊 The results speak for themselves: → Website widget up in minutes → Fresh content for social media → Double the social proof impact 💡 Key insight: The best testimonials happen when you catch genuine moments of delight. Seeing businesses like Ben's use Testimonial Donut in creative ways to showcase their incredible work - that's what gets me excited about building this. 🤔 What's your take on video vs written testimonials?

Yes! People love authenticity! There's an added layer of that when making a video. You can't fake enthusiasm very well on camera (vs writing).
Farzan That's actually brilliant. Reaction and before/after videos are super popular. What a genius idea to transform this format into testimonials. You may have some website visitors who aren't too sure whether they want your service, so they might not even click on regular testimonial videos. But with a reaction or before/after video, I bet curiosity takes over, and most visitors will watch it. And that's a win.
