WHAT IS A

TESTIMONIAL VIDEO?

A testimonial video is a content format in which a person shares, face-to-face with the camera, their experience or point of view on a company, service or mission.

Often used to present a satisfied customer, video testimonials can also take other forms: a manager talking about his company’s culture, an employee sharing his daily life, or a member of an organization explaining his commitment.

When well executed, it reinforces your brand’s credibility, increases conversions and creates a human link between the brand and its audience.

A testimonial video is someone sharing their experience on camera. Whether it’s a satisfied customer, a manager, an employee or a member of your organization, this format brings the human element back to the heart of the message. Done well, it gives credibility to your brand, creates an emotional bond with your audience and transforms interest into trust.

WHY CREATE A

VIDEO TESTIMONY?

A testimonial video is one of the most powerful tools for building trust around your offer. In a context where your audience is bombarded with marketing promises and AI-generated content, people no longer know how to distinguish what’s true from what’s false. Prospects are becoming increasingly distrustful and need a reliable source, so help them validate their decision with a testimonial video from Machiavelli Studios!

In a world saturated with AI content and marketing promises, people doubt everything they see online. An authentic video testimonial gives them human proof, earns their trust and turns doubt into a decision to trust you.

A testimonial video shows that you can be trusted. Since it’s your customer who speaks positively about you, and the viewer hears his voice, his words and sees his expressions, this type of testimonial gives him the chance to believe in the impact of your services.

An executive talking about his or her ambitions, or an employee explaining why he or she is fulfilled at your company, can help bring your corporate culture to life. This type of digital content is particularly useful for recruiting, raising awareness or strengthening your employer brand.

A video testimonial highlights how your organization is changing the world by helping you multiply your impact. When your future customers see a real person talking about their challenges and how they overcame them thanks to your company, they recognize themselves and see you as the solution.
