When you’re trying to demonstrate your credibility, what’s better than having the glowing testimonials of happy clients talking about how awesome you are?

Even better if they’re spontaneously given to you with permission to share on your website and in your marketing materials, right? But that’s not usually how it works.

So how do you get comfortable asking clients for testimonials? 

And more than that, how do you get GREAT ones that will land you more clients?
