Testimonials: Experts versus Eye Witness…
Experts: help us to understand the complexity of a situation.
Eye-witness: helps bring the situation to us, allows us to feel
it, paints a picture and draws us in.
One makes us think and One makes us care.
Credibility for a cause comes from both. No one is
expecting you to do the science - they are expecting you
to share the story. By telling your story - you make it live for
your audience. It's only when something resonates - that
people act. The big difference between testimonials that
make people think and those that make them care research suggests that it is the later that motivates people
to take action.
