Ask What kind of testimonials convert best for online course sales?

[SuperAffiliateX]

I'm building my first online course and feel stuck on the testimonial part. I know testimonials are important, but I'm not sure what kind works best. Should I use long stories or just short quotes? Do videos work better than text? I've seen people include screenshots too. I'm not sure what builds trust the most. I don't want it to look fake or forced. I just want people to feel confident enough to buy after reading them. Right now, I don't even know where to start or what to ask past students to say.

What kind of testimonials convert best for online course sales?

People want to hear from someone who was in the same spot they're in now, hit the same roadblocks, and actually got results. Generic stuff like Amazing course doesn't move the needle. What works is someone saying exactly what they struggled with and the wins they got like finishing a project, making money, getting a job, or just finally getting it. Video shout-outs are gold because you can see they're a real human. Even casual screenshots of DMs work great

When it comes to testimonials for online course sales, authenticity is key. Potential customers want to hear real stories from people who have taken your course and achieved tangible results. Personal anecdotes about overcoming challenges and achieving specific gains are powerful in building trust and credibility. Video testimonials can be particularly effective as they allow prospective students to see and connect with real people who have benefitted from your course.

What actually works is when someone shares where they started, what they struggled with, and what changed after taking the course. Even better if they mention specific results, like making more money or finally understanding something that used to confuse them. Video testimonials are great too since you can see they're genuine. It also helps when the person feels relatable, like "that could be me." Keep it short but honest.

First and foremost, testimonials should feel genuine and authentic. Avoid overly polished or fake-sounding testimonials as they can come across as insincere.
