You probably already have powerful feedback sitting in your inbox. A glowing review. A spontaneous thank-you in chat. A line from a sales call that made you think, \u201cThat\u2019s exactly how we want to be described.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Customer testimonials and reviews are some of the most powerful print marketing assets you already own. Used well in brochures and one-pagers, they can do what no headline or product pitch can: build trust, reduce friction, and help someone decide to choose you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This guide will show you how to choose and feature testimonials in printed marketing materials like sales one-pagers, leave-behind brochures, banners, and handouts. You\u2019ll also get tips from the Director of Customer Care at 10Web on how to spot the quotes that actually influence buying decisions. Let\u2019s break down how to turn casual praise into conversion gold, on paper.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why are testimonials effective, and how to spot the right one?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trustyou.com\/blog\/insights\/psychology-of-online-reviews\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">92% of people trust peer reviews more than traditional marketing copy<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. When someone\u2019s deciding whether to trust your brand, what you say about yourself only goes so far. What really matters is what others say about you. That\u2019s why customer testimonials, when used well, can make a great shift in your print marketing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, a testimonial like \u201cGreat service!\u201d might feel nice to read, but it won\u2019t help someone on the fence make a decision. So how do you know when a quote is actually worth using?<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"tenweb-quote\">\n\t<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"quote_title\"><\/h3>\n<p class=\"quote_content\">A strong quote should highlight a pain point that\u2019s common, demonstrate product value, or show what sets us apart.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"quote_author\">Zhanna Khachatryan, Director of Customer Care at 10Web<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/div>\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A strong one usually checks at least one of these boxes:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>It shows a clear, specific benefit or result <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(e.g. \u201cWe cut onboarding time from 14 days to 3 with [product name].\u201d)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>It highlights a relatable pain point<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (e.g. \u201cWe tried 3 different tools before this one finally worked for our remote team.\u201d)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>It points to a clear differentiator<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (e.g. \u201cUnlike other platforms, their support team actually felt like a partner.\u201d)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other words, the customer testimonials you choose shouldn\u2019t focus only on what happened and celebrate your brand; they should speak directly to someone else\u2019s doubt, goal, or need.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What kind of testimonials can you use in print, and where?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depending on where you&#8217;re using customer testimonials, you&#8217;ll want different print formats that match how people consume content in that spot.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When someone grabs your one-pager at a sales meeting, they glance at it while checking their phone, then stuff it in their bag. That&#8217;s reality. Your printed materials need to work in moments, while people are distracted, in a hurry, or long after you&#8217;ve walked away.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your customer quotes can shine in these quick-scan situations, but only if you match the right testimonial style to how people will use the page. Here are five testimonial formats that work beautifully in brochures, one-pagers, and handouts.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Short quote testimonials<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are your quick wins: short, snappy quotes that get right to the point. They\u2019re perfect for moments when you don\u2019t have much space or time to grab attention, especially if you can include a name, title, or photo for extra credibility.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Why it works:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Super easy to drop into just about anything.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Great for highlighting one clear benefit or reaction.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Perfect for: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Product highlight sections, front\/back covers of brochures, sidebars or quote callouts in one-pagers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Example:<\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u201cThey actually listened, and got us set up in a day. That alone was worth it.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Case study snippets<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Think of this as a quote with backup, usually paired with statistics\/numbers or a quick before-and-after story.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Why it works:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Showcases both results and experience.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Helps buyers feel confident you\u2019ve done this before.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Perfect for: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sales one-pagers, capability brochures, leave-behind handouts for pitches or trade shows.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Example: <\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe dropped our churn rate by 42% in 90 days, without overhauling our process.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. QR-linked video testimonials<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, you can still use videos in print, with a QR code. Link to a video testimonial and add a short quote or caption next to the code so readers know what to expect.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Why it works:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adds emotional impact and real voice to your print piece.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gives your handout an interactive dimension.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Easy to update the video later without reprinting the brochure.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Perfect for: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sales handouts with QR codes, product sheets at trade booths, direct mail flyers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even casual smartphone videos without any fancy production do the work. You just need to make sure the sound is clear and the message is heartfelt. Zhanna\u2019s view aligns with this:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLonger stories give context. They show where we met the customer\u2019s needs, and where we almost didn\u2019t.\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let people speak freely, and don\u2019t edit the realness out.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Third-party reviews and ratings<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can absolutely include ratings and review excerpts from platforms like Google, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.g2.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">G2<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trustpilot.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trustpilot<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.yelp.com\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yelp<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in printed marketing, especially if you&#8217;re trying to boost credibility fast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Why it works:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They feel honest, and that builds credibility fast.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can reuse star ratings, badges, or even pull quotes from them.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Perfect for: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sidebar sections in brochures, \u201cwhy choose us?\u201d grids on one-pagers, print ads or promo inserts<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Example: <\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c4.9 stars from 300+ customers\u201d can say more than a paragraph ever could.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use tools or plugins to bring these into your site without extra work.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Story-based testimonials<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are longer, narrative-style quotes that go into the full customer journey. They work best in printed materials that people actually sit down to read, like catalogs, case studies, or deep-dive leave-behinds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Why it works:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let readers see themselves in the story.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perfect for bigger decisions, emotional purchases, or high-investment products.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Perfect for: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Full-page spreads in capability brochures, sales booklets and printed case studies, founder letters or company story sections<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Example: <\/b><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHonestly, I wasn\u2019t sure this would work.

Some client testimonials are perfect for building early trust, while others help seal the deal. Here\u2019s how to match testimonial types to each funnel stage:<\/span><\/p>\n<table class=\"tenweb-table-new\" style=\"border-collapse: collapse;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Funnel stage<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Best testimonial types<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Why it works<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"padding: 4px 0;\">\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><b>Awareness<\/b><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<ul style=\"margin: 0; padding-left: 20px;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Short quote testimonials<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Third-party reviews<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These build instant credibility and show you&#8217;re trusted by real people.

For example:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Drop short quotes near CTAs or offer sections: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use one-line testimonials right next to pricing, trial prompts, or contact info to reduce hesitation at the moment of decision.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Bold the strongest line in a quote and place it beside key visuals:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Eye-catching pull quotes next to product images or benefits guide the reader\u2019s attention and build trust at a glance.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Pair case study snippets with product or service descriptions:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Add short result-focused quotes next to onboarding steps, features, or solution details to reinforce credibility with proof.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Use story-based testimonials where readers slow down:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Include longer quotes in a dedicated &#8220;Customer Story&#8221; section, back page, or alongside a founder note to build emotional connection.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Reuse third-party reviews, star ratings, and trust badges wherever credibility matters most:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Place them in a sidebar, footer, or comparison section to validate claims and reassure skeptical readers.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to choose testimonials that influence decisions?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just because a customer said something nice doesn\u2019t mean it should be used in your brochure or one-pager. Let\u2019s see how you can filter out what\u2019s nice and find what\u2019s persuasive.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Match the quote to your buyer persona<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The testimonial should feel like it\u2019s coming from someone your next buyer would relate to, or aspire to be.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you sell to product managers, a quote from a CTO might be inspiring, but one from a fellow PM feels more grounded.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Selling to small agencies? A line from a solo founder hits harder than one from a Fortune 500 exec.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Prioritize specificity and measurable outcomes<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Details make people actually believe you, and numbers show them what&#8217;s really possible. So instead of something vague like &#8220;This product saved us so much time,&#8221; go with something specific: &#8220;We didn&#8217;t even change how we work, but we&#8217;re saving 6 hours every week now!&#8221; When people can picture that exact same win happening to them, they&#8217;re way more likely to think &#8220;Yeah, I could use those 6 hours back too.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Include name, title, company, or industry (when possible)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It doesn\u2019t have to be all four, but the more context you give, the more believable the quote becomes. \u201cJared K., Director of IT at a 120-person law firm\u201d tells a clearer story than \u201cHappy customer.\u201d Plus, if your audience sees someone from <\/span><b>their field<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> getting results, you\u2019ve just handled half their objections.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Watch for red-flag phrases<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some praise is just too generic to be useful:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cGreat service\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAmazing product\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI would recommend it!\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These seem good but don\u2019t reveal anything actionable or unique. When you see something vague, dig deeper: what exactly made it great? As Zhanna highlighted, when a quote surfaces a broader problem and explains how we solved it, it becomes reusable across teams. That\u2019s your north star: quotes that capture a pain point and resolution are the ones that travel far, and sell better.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Takeaway: Print-ready quote checklist<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you feature a testimonial, give it a quick gut check.

You shouldn\u2019t wait for them, but to build lightweight systems that make it easy to catch and surface them consistently.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At 10Web, we have a dedicated feedback Slack channel. Agents tag quotes, and we surface both praise and complaints. It\u2019s part of staying aligned with our customer. This can be a useful channel for you as well, or you might choose other simple workflows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Add a quick \u201cHow did we do?\u201d survey after support interactions or onboarding.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep an eye on your support tickets and live chats &#8211; that&#8217;s where customers often drop genuine praise or talk about how you solved their problem.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Set up a shared Slack channel or email thread where your team can quickly share great quotes they come across during their day.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Just remember: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Always ask permission before using someone&#8217;s words, especially if you&#8217;re in a regulated industry or dealing with other businesses. A simple opt-in checkbox on surveys works, or just shoot them a quick message asking if it&#8217;s cool to quote them.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How can you design testimonials that get noticed?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even the best testimonial can get completely ignored if it&#8217;s crammed into tiny text on the button of your one-pager or lost in a bunch of other content. How you present these quotes matters just as much as what they say. Here&#8217;s how to make them catch people&#8217;s attention:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Give them space to breathe with pull quotes, boxes, or a subtle background color<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Include customer photos or company logos when you can (it makes everything feel more real)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Break up longer stories with bold text, bullet points, or little headers so they&#8217;re easier to scan<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep the same style everywhere &#8211; sales materials, PDFs, brochures &#8211; so everything feels polished<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re starting fresh with your brand or just want to get everything looking consistent, make sure your logo, fonts, and overall vibe match across all your brand assets. When everything looks like it belongs together, your testimonials feel more trustworthy no matter where someone sees them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Something like the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/tools\/logo-maker\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10Web Brand Kit<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can be a lifesaver if you want things to look professional but don&#8217;t want to deal with the headache of designing everything yourself.

The right quote, in the right place, from the right voice can do what no pitch ever could: make someone feel seen, understood, and ready to say yes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Start with what you already have. That sentence in a support chat. That review is buried in your inbox. Don\u2019t wait for the perfect pull quote, just create a simple system to collect, organize, and use what your customers are already telling you. Because at the end of the day, you already have advocates. Now it\u2019s time to make them visible through your brochures and one-pagers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FAQ<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><div class=\"faq-shortcode\">\n    <p class=\"faq_title\">What is a customer testimonial?<\/p>\n    <div class=\"faq_content\">A customer testimonial is simply a review or recommendation from someone who&#8217;s used your product or service. These reviews from happy clients help build trust because people tend to believe other customers more than they believe ads.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-shortcode\">\n    <p class=\"faq_title\">Where should testimonials go in a brochure or one-pager?<\/p>\n    <div class=\"faq_content\">Use short quotes near CTAs or pricing. Place longer stories on the back, in spotlight sections, or next to key benefits. Star ratings and trust badges work well in sidebars. Think of each quote as a confidence boost right where your reader might pause or hesitate.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-shortcode\">\n    <p class=\"faq_title\">Do testimonials really work in brochures?<\/p>\n    <div class=\"faq_content\">Yes, especially when chosen and placed intentionally. In print, people skim. A short, well-placed quote can stop the scroll and say more than a full paragraph. The right testimonial can answer a buyer&#8217;s unspoken objection <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">right on the page.<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-shortcode\">\n    <p class=\"faq_title\">What is the purpose of using testimonials in marketing?<\/p>\n    <div class=\"faq_content\">When potential customers see that real people have had great experiences, it makes them way more likely to give you a shot. It&#8217;s like having your best customers do the selling for you &#8211; and honestly, people trust other customers way more than they trust what companies say about themselves.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\r\n<style>\r\n  #ctablocks_inline_130{\r\n          background-color: #000000;\r\n        color: #ffffff;\r\n    border-radius: 12px;\r\n  }\r\n\r\n  #ctablocks_inline_130 p{\r\n    color: #ffffff;\r\n  }\r\n  #ctablocks_inline_130 .button{\r\n        background-color: #3339F1;\r\n      color: #ffffff;\r\n    border-color: #3339F1 !important;\r\n  }\r\n  #ctablocks_inline_130 .button:hover{\r\n    background: rgba(51,57,241,0.8);\r\n    color: #ffffff;\r\n    opacity: 1;\r\n  }\r\n        #ctablocks_inline_130 .ctablocks_content_info p {\r\n        padding-left: 36px;\r\n      }\r\n      #ctablocks_inline_130 .ctablocks_content_button {\r\n          margin-left: 37px;\r\n      }\r\n  @media screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1260px) {\r\n      #ctablocks_inline_130 .ctablocks_content_button {\r\n          margin-left: 37px !important;\r\n      }\r\n  }\r\n  ;\r\n<\/style>\r\n<div id=\"ctablocks_inline_130\" class=\"ctablocks_container inline_type\r\n        \">\r\n\r\n  <div class=\"ctablocks_content clear\">\r\n    <div class=\"ctablocks_content_info\">\r\n      \r\n            <div class=\"title-wrap\">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t                  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/04\/Group-175063@2x.png\" alt=\"Go from idea to brand in minutes. \" title=\"Go from idea to brand in minutes. \">\r\n\t\t\t\t\t            <h4>Go from idea to brand in minutes. <\/h4>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n              <p>Describe your brand and get complete brand assets.<\/p>\r\n          <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"ctablocks_content_button\">\r\n              <a href=\"https:\/\/10web.io\/tools\/logo-maker\/\" class=\"button\"  data-gtag=\"cta-130\" data-buttontype=\"cta-inline\"\r\n\t        >GET YOUR BRAND KIT <\/a>\r\n            \r\n    <\/div>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Start by using them to replace generic marketing claims with real customer proof.
