Tips for Effective Testimonials

Content Guidelines

  • Be specific: Include measurable results and outcomes ("increased sales by 45%")

  • Keep it real: Use authentic quotes from actual customers

  • Vary your sources: Feature testimonials from different industries or use cases

  • Quality over quantity: 3-6 strong testimonials are better than many weak ones

  • Complete all fields: Remember, all three fields must be filled for display

Writing Strong Testimonials

The best testimonials include:

  • Specific problem that was solved

  • Measurable results or improvements

  • Emotional connection to the solution

  • Clear recommendation

Design Best Practices

  • Visual hierarchy: Quote should be the most prominent element

  • Consistent formatting: Keep testimonial lengths similar for better layout

  • Color contrast: Use the auto-select text color feature for readability

  • Mobile testing: Preview both card and slider layouts on mobile devices

Troubleshooting

Testimonials not appearing on live page

  • Verify all three fields have content: quote, name, AND position

  • Even one empty field will hide the entire testimonial

  • Check in preview mode to confirm visibility

Slider navigation not showing

  • You need at least 2 testimonials for navigation to appear

  • Verify layout is set to "Slider" not "Cards"

  • Navigation dots and arrows appear automatically when multiple testimonials exist

Text difficult to read

  • Enable "Auto select text color" for automatic contrast adjustment

  • Manually adjust text color if needed

  • Check background opacity isn't too low (try 80-100%)

Layout issues on mobile

  • Card layout automatically stacks to single column

  • Slider layout maintains swipe functionality

  • Test in mobile preview to ensure proper display

  • Card Group: Similar grouped layout for other content types

  • Quote: For simple quoted text without attribution

  • Slideshow: General-purpose carousel for any content
