Over the last few years, ads have become a really important part of one’s business. But, since they have become a part of our everyday lives, people often just ignore them.
For that reason, people started looking for some ideas that will help them get new customers and “make” them try the products/services you are offering. Of course, creating an ad and sending it out is the easier way out, but it will not have as much effect as social proof.
For those of you unfamiliar with the term social proof, let us explain. Social proof is a way of you, the service/product provider, giving your buyers proof that some of your previous buyers enjoyed your product. Even if you’re a buyer, you’ll seek any form of confirmation that the goods are as advertised, that the seller actually offers you the stuff.
Now that we have shortly explained this, let us give you a few examples of some of the best, in our opinion, software tools when it comes to social proof.

Boast is used by many big companies all over the world. It is a great software that allows you to collect video testimonials so that you can use them anywhere you would like.
Including real videos, with real people, talking about your product. It is much better when the person speaking feels real for other buyers, and not just someone lying about using your product. It really does make the whole process easy for both you and the person giving the review.
