What is a testimonial video?
A testimonial video is a marketing tool that highlights the success and value of a product or service – from the perspective of an existing customer. It usually features a customer, on camera, talking about their positive experiences with your company.
What are video testimonials used for?
Testimonial videos are used to build credibility and trust among new potential customers during the sales process. Studies (including our own) show that people are much more likely to trust and believe what other people say about a business, than what that business says about itself! Customer testimonial videos are votes of confidence in a brand, product or service. They tell engaging, personal stories that build relatability and help brands to connect with viewers on an emotional level.
Why are testimonial videos more effective than written testimonials?
Written testimonials and positive reviews are effective in their own right. But customer testimonial videos are often even more effective, because they’re able to capture human emotion and relatability in a way that text can’t. By being able to see and hear the person delivering the video directly, the viewer can – consciously or not – have a much greater connection to that person, as if it were a personal conversation. Testimonial videos also tend to be shorter and quicker to consume and digest than written reviews – keeping them engaged and free from distractions.What makes a compelling testimonial video?
A compelling testimonial video is one that manages to capture the heart and soul of a customer’s experience with a product or service. It should be visually engaging and authentic – the audience can tell if someone has been scripted or coached too heavily. The video should focus on key takeaways from the story, such as how the product improved their life, how it solved a problem they had, and the impact it has had on their business or life.Testimonial video examples

How much do customer testimonial videos cost?
Because of the wide variety of testimonial video production techniques available, there’s no hard or fast rule here. In theory, basic customer testimonial videos can be produced for free using tech as simple as a mobile phone camera. But, as always, if you’re looking to create high quality videos that support your marketing efforts and reflect properly on your brand – making the best possible impression on your would-be customers – it may be worth investing a little extra money, whether that’s in better lighting and filming equipment, hiring a freelancer, or using a full testimonial video production service like ours.How long should a testimonial video be?
There are always exceptions to this rule, but an ideal length for a testimonial video is typically between 60 to 90 seconds. It’s important to keep it concise and focused on the key points. Shorter videos are more likely to hold viewers’ attention and deliver the message effectively without becoming tedious or overwhelming.What are the different ways to create testimonial videos?
There are a few ways to create customer testimonial videos depending on your budget and requirements. You can go with a DIY approach – perform your own interviews, either in-person or using screen recorded meeting software. You can also ask your customers to record their own testimonials and send them over. Our testimonial video production process, however, takes away all that heavy lifting: we manage the whole process for you, sending a videographer to your customers’ location to film interview footage and B-roll – anywhere in the world. We then take care of video editing, adding royalty-free music, logo animations, title cards and lower thirds.
Do video testimonials work?
Yes, they can be highly effective! Customer testimonials provide social proof and build trust among prospective customers – there’s no substitute for showcasing real people endorsing a product or service. A video testimonial can add authenticity, emotional connection, and visual impact to a website, making them more compelling and persuasive than written testimonials.We manage everything for you!
It’s a fact – testimonial videos and case studies work – they show the experience of real people with your product or service. BUT, recording high quality testimonial videos is hard. Your customers are based in different locations, work on different schedules and getting people to record, edit and produce videos globally is impossible… until now. We created an end-to-end service to make creating high quality testimonials easy.
