Design a Testimonial Section
"Great product, highly recommend" persuades no one. A testimonial earns trust when it contains a specific before-state, a specific change, and a person you can look up.
The anatomy of a useful quote
- Who — name, role, company
- Before — the situation they were in
- Change — what happened, with a number if possible
- Face — a real photo, not an avatar
Prompts
Edit: "Rewrite these five quotes to lead with the specific result, keep the customer's wording, and cut anything that sounds like marketing."
Layout: "Build a three-column testimonial grid: 1:1 photo, 24 px quote, name and role in 14 px. Equal heights, no carousel."
Truth check: "Flag any quote that makes a claim we can't substantiate. Suggest a factual replacement."
