Why Client Testimonials Are So Important

Once you start gaining clients as a podcast manager, it’s easy to look over testimonials but these are important aspects of your marketing and growth. Client testimonials are essential for providing social proof, in demonstrating to potential clients that you are a great fit for them.  They help you provide evidence of the support you’ve given other podcast hosts and what you have done to help grow their show. 

 

So how do you get client testimonials and make the most out of them?

 

Asking For Testimonials

 

You should ask your clients for testimonials. These testimonials support your expertise and will hopefully highlight your love of podcast management and the high-quality support that you offer your clients. 

 

A great way to ask for a review is to let your client know how much you enjoy working with them and then ask if they wouldn't mind providing a testimonial for your work. You could also request testimonials in your email marketing content, although this might be more easily overlooked compared to a direct request.

 

The best time to ask for a review is when you have established a good report and you’re working well together. This could be after a month or even a few months. It’s a good idea to keep a database of review requests and responses as you might need to follow up a request after a while but you also need to respect that not everyone will leave you a review.

 

Where to Encourage Testimonials

 

Try to suggest a few places for your client to leave a review. If they originally found you on Google then ask them for a Google review. If you generally connect on LinkedIn, ask for a LinkedIn endorsement. You should also build up reviews on Facebook as well. 

 

You can easily show your Google reviews on your website as a carousel. There are plugins available to do this if you are used to working with Wordpress or you can ask your website manager to do this for you. This is a great way to showcase our successful client relationships on your website.
