12.3 Asking for Testimonials the Right Way — Newbie VA Course
Great work speaks for itself — but testimonials make sure others hear it too.The best time to ask for feedback is right after you deliver real value. Even one strong testimonial can make your next client say, “I trust this VA.” How to Ask for Testimonials (Without Being Awkward) - Ask when the client is happy — after a win or project milestone. - Make it easy: send 2–3 simple questions they can answer quickly. - Use their exact words (with permission) on your portfolio or bio. - Keep it short and genuine — over-polished sounds fake. Example: “Would you mind sharing a short line about your experience working together? Even 2–3 sentences would mean a lot.” 💬 Let’s Talk If you could ask a client one question to get a great testimonial, what would it be? Comment your version below 👇 “What changed for you after I started helping?” “What did you find most valuable about working with me?” 🔗 Classroom Lesson: Go to Lesson 12.3 — Asking for Testimonials the Right Way ⏭️ Next Lesson: Lesson 12.4 — LinkedIn & Upwork Optimization
