Weak testimonials

Weak testimonials are vague, generic reviews (like "Great job!") that fail to build real trust. When a business lacks specific success stories, skeptical buyers hesitate, causing the business to lose easy sales to competitors with better social proof.

Opportunity Score

Review collection is one of the easiest places to start because it requires zero technical skill. However, the value to the business is huge, making it easy to sell.

Market Motivation

The psychology of the buyer

Because generic praise doesn't generate revenue.

Businesses know that 'social proof' sells, but they are often terrible at collecting it. They pay because turning a happy client into a persuasive case study creates a permanent marketing asset that helps them close deals faster and easier.

Three Ways to Monetize

Proven entry points for this market.

Quick Win

Review Request Scripts

A collection of copy-paste email and text scripts that guide customers to write detailed, persuasive reviews instead of just star ratings.

$19 - $37

Instant win for the business owner; they can use this immediately with zero setup.

Core Asset

The Case Study Builder Kit

A complete toolkit including interview question logic, permission waivers, and design templates to turn raw feedback into professional marketing assets.

$47 - $97

Higher perceived value because it solves the legal, copy, and design aspects all in one.

High Ticket

Done-For-You Success Stories

Offer to interview their top 5 happiest clients personally, record the conversation, and write up a powerful case study for their website.

$300 - $1,000 per story

Business owners feel awkward asking for praise; doing it for them is a massive relief and time-saver.

Execution Plan

Capture the wins they are forgetting

Find a local service business (like a landscaper or consultant) with a good reputation but empty reviews. Offer to interview their best client and write one case study for free or for a low fee ($50). Once they see how powerful it looks, pitch a package of 5 stories for $1,000.
