Showcasing reviews and feedback from real customers helps you build strong social proof. Reviews help prospective buyers decide whether to invest in your product is worth their penny or not.
Instead of trusting a marketer or a salesperson, consumers rely on real customers’ reviews to opt for a service or a product. 90% of consumers consider these personal recommendations or online reviews of real users helpful while making a purchase.
