Eventyrsport Key Benefits v2

### Creating a stellar customer experience for online shoppers

Believe it or not, Lars personally reads every single review left about Eventyrsport on Trustpilot. And why is that?

Because he believes that internalizing customer feedback is the only surefire way to futureproof a business and offer the best customer experience possible. After all, even the occasional bad review creates an opportunity for eCommerce greatness.

According to Lars and his team, negative reviews can be a huge help when it comes to spotting and correcting minor business issues before they become full fledged problems. And we couldn’t agree more.

In fact, this commitment to customer experience is alive and well across the whole organization at Eventyrsport. The team has a very high bar for customer experience, and they’re well aware that online shoppers care very much about the experiences of those who shopped before them.

That’s why Eventyrsport decided to use Trustpilot in their marketing materials to show off their excellent reputation at the very top of the buying journey. From their cross channel ads, newspapers and newsletters, to the prime real estate on their website — they put what customers are saying about their business front and center.

And because they’re aware that even customers shopping in their retail locations are likely to to do [online research](https://business.trustpilot.com/guides-reports/build-trusted-brand/6-ways-to-make-trust-your-essential-brand-differentiator) while in store, Eventyrsport has started featuring their customer feedback from Trustpilot reviews throughout their retail displays.

With their eight year commitment to customer experience and building trust with online audiences, we have no doubt that Eventyrsport is on the road to future proof success in eCommerce.

Giglio's Key Benefits from using Trustpilot reviews

Overview of the improvements gained by Giglio thanks to Trustpilot

Giglio realized that a stellar online presence can be a key to success in the eCommerce space, where it’s not as easy to build up a personal relationship with customers. 

With the goals of opening a dialogue with their customer base and better communicating with a worldwide audience, Giglio decided to partner with Trustpilot in 2017. 
 
Ever since, they’ve used the Trustpilot platform to monitor their customer satisfaction, maximize their eCommerce conversions, and grow their bottom line.



Head of Marketing Operations

### How Giglio uses Trustpilot’s features and integrations

Driven by their automatic review collection strategy, Giglio empowers their customers to communicate insights, questions, and concerns directly to the team through reviews. This provides the business with valuable customer feedback they can show and use in their marketing emails and SERP ads. 

Adding this kind of social proof to their marketing materials has also boosted their performance in key metrics.

After adding review content to their website and showcasing their Trustpilot star rating in Google Ads campaigns, Giglio saw an incredible 20% click-through rate increase in adverts displaying Trustpilot stars.

But their use of Trustpilot doesn’t stop there at the very top of the funnel — Giglio has also made the most of TrustBox widgets on their website to build trust, which is known to [boost eCommerce conversions](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/reviews/browsers-to-buyers/15-ecommerce-tips-to-drastically-increase-your-conversion-rate).

Thanks to this simple integration, and according to A/B test results on their checkout page, Giglio __increased their conversion rate by 7%__ with their TrustBox.

Another key widget in Giglio’s marketing strategy has been the [TrustBox Newsletter](https://support.trustpilot.com/hc/en-us/articles/115007375487-Add-a-TrustBox-Newsletter-to-your-email-campaigns), which Giglio implemented throughout their email communication in hopes of increasing the trustworthiness of their company communications. 

In this case, the A/B test results also show that __click-through rate increased by almost 10%__, which is especially significant considering the many kinds of emails Giglio sends to their potential customers.

Thanks to this powerful tool, Giglio showcases their star rating in email marketing campaigns and transactional emails, allowing them to benefit from social proof across channels, and at different stages of the eCommerce customer journey. 



Example of a TrustBox Newsletter in one of Giglio's emails

On top of the steady stream of customer reviews, constant and customized support are among the Trustpilot features that Giglio appreciates the most. But of all their favorite features, the __plug and play Trustpilot API__ is definitely at the top of the list. 
 
Thanks to this option, Giglio’s Customer Relationship Management system — which is managed and constantly updated by their developers — can easily be hooked up to connect with Trustpilot’s platform in real time. 
 
This allows Giglio to stay connected with both systems on a daily basis while collecting valuable information from reviews. And perhaps most importantly, it offers the Customer Service and Social Media teams a real time window into customer sentiment. 




### Powering the family tradition of personal customer service with reviews 

That said, the power of reviews and savvy systems integrations can only go so far if those insights aren’t communicated widely to the right departments at the right time. 

Because of the way Giglio shares customer reviews across departments, and the ongoing support of Trustpilot’s Customer Success Managers, customer reviews not only helps the company grow, but also highlight which aspects of their business can be improved, and what the biggest challenges are for their customers.	

Trustpilot reviews even allow Giuseppe Giglio, the CEO of the business, to maintain the personal and family-owned feel they established back in their brick and mortar days by interacting directly with customers and replying to feedback left in reviews.   

“I inherited the culture of the family business from my family,” he says. “We are on the front line. When a client is unhappy with our service, I answer personally to understand what went wrong, to apologize, and to understand what actions we can take to set things right and correct our mistake.”

From a small shop to a publicly traded company, the story of Giglio’s family has roots that run deep in their past and traditions, but that hasn’t stopped them from future-proofing their business with the help of a trusted third-party review partner like Trustpilot. 

When mature brands move to the online space, it’s not enough to simply be present. Now it’s essential to interact with customers and demonstrate that you hear their feedback. 
 
With Giglio’s ongoing efforts to meet their customers exactly where they are, we have no doubt that they’ll continue to succeed in the eCommerce space — and be at the frontlines of whatever shopping innovation comes next.

### Building a great brand reputation with online reviews

“We chose to partner with Trustpilot because of the platform’s great reputation, brand awareness and recognition with customers. We knew that we wanted to partner with a platform which could really help us to build trust in the UK marketplace with our private sellers”, explains Marc.

The auto industry isn’t well-known for its great reputation, especially when it comes to buying a car. Auto Trader understands the challenges the market is facing, and leverages Trustpilot reviews to build trust with both consumers and customers. 

Since using Trustpilot, Auto Trader has also considerably increased its conversion rate. The business has also adopted a ‘voice-of-the-customer strategy’.

“The feedback is really, really valuable. That communication and that link with consumers breeds loyalty and is a great advert to all our prospective customers", says Marc.

The brand has also found the Trustpilot platform really easy to use. Gabriella explains:

“Our ‘voice of the customer’ team uses Trustpilot every day, so it’s really important that we use a platform that is easy to pull insights from. Trustpilot offers different ways to generate reports, which we do quite regularly to monitor our reviews and TrustScore, and make sure we keep getting better and better.”

Auto Trader understand that receiving a bad review isn't bad for your business or for your reputation. The business has learnt how to handle negative feedback, and how to turn bad reviews into positive stories. Taking time to answer reviews proves that your team takes all customer experiences seriously, and wants to work towards delivering great customer service and experiences. In this day and age, there’s nothing more trustworthy than a customer-centric brand. 

“If you really do focus on your reviews and the feedback that your customers are giving you, and if you work hard towards improving your service and customer experience, you really can improve your reputation", says Gabriella.

CardsDirect x Trustpilot case study

CardsDirect x Trustpilot Case Study

We sat down with the team to learn how CardsDirect used Trustpilot reviews to help grow not one, but three highly trusted brands, and uncover some of the trust-building secrets behind their glowing online reputation.

Today we share __five takeaways that we hope will inspire any business to start using transparency, openness, and reviews__ to attract and retain more customers.


CardsDirect Key Benefits

## 1. Your About Us page is the perfect place to share an open and transparent brand mission statement.

We live in a time where [54%](https://www.bopdesign.com/bop-blog/2015/10/15-crazy-branding-stats/) of shoppers say they [don’t trust brands](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/reviews/build-trusted-brand/5-online-reputation-management-strategies-for-driving-brand-trust). But with three distinct trusted brands, we’ll take it from CardsDirect that trust begins with how you communicate as a business.

It might seem like a no-brainer, but the opportunity to share your brand story on your About Us page is not one to be missed. It’s prime brand-building real estate, and a perfect opportunity to kindle a relationship with your customers.

If you need inspiration, look no further than the [About Us page](https://www.cardsdirect.com/aboutus.aspx) of CardsDirect, where they come right out with their commitment to hands-on customer service and satisfaction, even in the internet age where it can be shockingly easy to hide phone numbers and effectively avoid customers.

Why is this so important? According to consumer research from KPMG, shoppers are most likely to trust a business that [makes it easy to contact people](https://assets.kpmg/content/dam/kpmg/xx/pdf/2017/01/the-truth-about-online-consumers.pdf) at the company.

On top of using their About Us page to make their contact information crystal clear, CardsDirect goes a step further with transparent communication by explaining *how* they’re able to offer such good prices on their products.

Recent research from Trustpilot shows that [83% of consumers](https://business.trustpilot.com/guides-reports/build-trusted-brand/6-ways-to-make-trust-your-essential-brand-differentiator) find it easier to trust a company when it’s transparent about how it sources its products, so it’s a great idea to share this kind of information not only on your about page, but across your product pages as well.

Lastly, because they tend to be designed with SEO in mind, your About Us page is likely to show up in search results when new shoppers Google your brand. And with [62% of customers](https://business.trustpilot.com/guides-reports/build-trusted-brand/6-ways-to-make-trust-your-essential-brand-differentiator) researching a company they’re unfamiliar with, it’s a great idea to set yours up to be a source of helpful information — that also represents the values of your brand.

## 2. Decide on a review collection strategy to create a feedback loop with your customers

By now it’s well established that reviews are one of the [most effective ways to communicate](https://business.trustpilot.com/guides-reports/learn-from-customers/trustworthiness-in-advertising-what-consumers-have-to-say) your trustworthiness to potential customers. But how do you begin building up this super effective form of [social proof](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/build-trusted-brand/what-is-social-proof-and-why-is-it-important-for-marketing)? 

We recommend coming up with a [review collection strategy](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/reviews/build-trusted-brand/a-beginners-guide-to-getting-good-customer-service-reviews), that allows you to automatically send review invitations to your customers at the perfect moment in the shopping journey.

And before you imagine crickets chirping, or worry that people only leave reviews about awful experiences — think again. [Trustpilot research](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/learn-from-customers/why-do-people-write-reviews-what-our-research-revealed) has revealed that shoppers write reviews for a whole range of reasons: 

- Venting frustrations about a negative experience
- Spreading the word if an experience with a brand was positive
- Wanting to be recognized or acknowledged for having certain knowledge or taste
- Feeling like part of a community and wanting to give back

But perhaps most interestingly, this study also revealed that __shoppers also leave reviews simply because they feel a need to express themselves, and reviews empower them to do so__.

The team at CardsDirect has caught onto the best way to empower their customers to leave reviews, and it’s as simple as asking them at the right time. 




CardsDirect Trustpilot Review Invitation

Rather than sending their customers an automatic review invitation once a customer has placed an order — which could certainly make sense for some businesses — CardsDirect has customized their review collection strategy to capitalize on the moment of delight for *their business*. 

Translation: they only ask customers for a review once the package has been delivered safely.


CardsDirect Trustpilot Testimonial - Leah Sanchez Brand Manager

And to close this customer experience feedback loop, the team at CardsDirect aptly sends a personal reply to each reviewer in the form of a handwritten card, often times personalizing the content of the written reply based on the review itself.  

When you put a review collection strategy in place, online reviews go from a platform for the most satisfied (or disgruntled) customers, to a proactive communication channel between businesses and customers. 

You just need to tap into it. 


## 3. Your customers’ words have power, so highlight what they’re saying about your brand across the shopping journey.

Creating a feedback loop through online reviews is a fantastic start to customer centricity and overall satisfaction, but we’ve also seen brands use online reviews to directly grow their bottom line. 

As it turns out, featuring reviews [throughout the shopping journey](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/how-flinders-use-reviews-to-build-trust-throughout-the-customer-journey) is a high impact way to boost conversions.

In a time where online shoppers see a staggering [4,000-10,000](https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbesagencycouncil/2017/08/25/finding-brand-success-in-the-digital-world/#252ee6eb626e) advertising messages per day, why not let your [customers cut through the noise](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/build-trusted-brand/your-guide-to-customer-advocacy-what-is-it-and-why-is-it-important) and play a larger role in sharing your brand’s values? 


CardsDirect x Trustpilot Testimonial - Travis Helling Brand Marketing Manager

We couldn’t agree more, and there’s lots of social proof inspiration to be gleaned from how the team at CardsDirect puts their reviews to work.

They display customer reviews on their homepage:


Trustpilot reviews feature prominently on the homepage of BrookhollowCards.com, which is just one of the brands in CardsDirect’s portfolio of greeting card businesses.

Brookhollow Cards Trustpilot Reviews

On their landing pages across all brands: 

CardsDirect uses reviews across all landing pages

On their landing pages specifically for paid search:

CardsDirect Trustpilot Reviews in Paid Search Landing Pages

CardsDirect uses Trustpilot reviews in direct mail

But do online reviews really have a place to shine outside of the digital realm? 

Leah Sanchez, Brand Manager at CardsDirect thinks so. __Because reviews are so effective for marketing to new and existing customers__, she has big plans to feature their favorite Trustpilot reviews in their 2019 holiday print catalog. 

At the end of the day, all brands can benefit from adding trust signals like star ratings, TrustScore, or even the Trustpilot logo across their website, and even on their marketing materials.

In fact, we’ve even heard that [87% of consumers](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/reviews/why-87-of-consumers-find-ads-more-trustworthy-with-trustpilot) find ads more trustworthy with the Trustpilot logo.

And on that note —


## 4. Ads are more trustworthy with a helping of social proof

There’s been a wealth of recent consumer research confirming digital marketers’ worst suspicions: [few consumers](https://business.trustpilot.com/guides-reports/build-trusted-brand/can-online-reviews-revive-consumer-trust-in-advertising) think ads are trustworthy sources of information, and they seldom take ad claims into account for purchasing decisions. 

Yet, [84% of consumers](https://www.inc.com/craig-bloem/84-percent-of-people-trust-online-reviews-as-much-.html) trust online reviews as much as a personal recommendation from a friend. 

That’s exactly why the team at CardsDirect made sure to choose a review partner that could help them earn [Google Seller Ratings](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/why-wont-my-google-seller-ratings-show-up-and-4-other-gsr-questions) on their paid search ads — or in other words, add a proven trust signal to their ads to boost trustworthiness.

After carrying out some formal split testing on their paid search ads, they couldn’t help but notice that the ads featuring a [star rating](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/get-seen-in-search/rich-snippets-stars-for-product-reviews-can-boost-seo) had [better click-through rates](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/browsers-to-buyers/a-channel-by-channel-guide-to-improving-your-ctr) than the ones without.

They’ve also noticed a positive impact on landing page conversions after adding [Trustpilot widgets](https://business.trustpilot.com/features/trustboxes) to their paid search landing pages.


CardsDirect x Trustpilot Testimonial - Dean Eldridge

But adding trust signals to your online marketing and advertising doesn’t have to stop there. 

Other [sources](https://instapage.com/blog/customer-reviews-marketing) have found that ad creative featuring [user-generated content](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/build-trusted-brand/a-beginner-guide-to-building-brand-loyalty-with-user-generated-content) can lead to the stellar combination of four times higher click-through rates, and a 50% drop in CPC. 

We have a feeling most brands could benefit from that kind of lift in marketing performance. 


## 5. When you respond to reviews, you improve star ratings and become a better business

Like most brands, CardsDirect considers new customer acquisition and customer retention to be the main challenges to their business.

And they’ve found that collecting customer reviews has helped with that.

Sure, favorable reviews have straightforward benefits for building trust with new and existing customers, but unfavorable reviews present a unique opportunity in their own right. 

CardsDirect x Trustpilot Testimonial - Lynell Brown

Not only that, but the team at CardsDirect has noticed that __one third of customers go back and update their unfavorable reviews to be more positive__ once someone from the company reaches out about the issue.

Because of these great results, responding to customer feedback is taken seriously at CardsDirect. The team reads every single review that comes in, and if a poor review is spotted they respond ASAP and do whatever they can to make it right. 

It’s clear to the team that reviews not only help them deliver [excellent customer service](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/reviews/learn-from-customers/3-ways-reviews-can-help-you-deliver-excellent-customer-service), but also provide a roadmap for how they can get better as a business.

So far, their reviews have provided insights into products and services that customers want that the company might not have considered. They also help the team spot trends that the company ought to look into, such as issues with shippers or printers, or even the product design itself. 

One example is when they noticed that several unfavorable reviews all mentioned that the font size of a particular product was too small. Thanks to this clear pattern in their reviews, it was easy for customer service agents to relay this feedback to the product team, who swiftly updated that product online. 

### A dedicated review strategy is essential for a trustworthy reputation. Build yours with Trustpilot.

When asked why they chose to build their online reputation with Trustpilot, the CardsDirect team says it best:

*“The Trustpilot platform has an intuitive interface, and offers easy-to-use integrations that allow us to keep our brand identity. Set up was simple, so we were able to hit the ground running collecting reviews across multiple brands.”*

And while we appreciate their kind words, we admire their __commitment to consumer trust__ even more. 

*“‘Trust’ by definition is the firm belief in the reliability, truth, or ability of someone. It’s our goal at CardsDirect to exemplify all three of these brand traits. There wouldn’t be CardsDirect without trust.”*

We’d love to help.

Enter SendCloud, who offers online stores a helping hand by automating this entire process. From picking and packing to sending and returning, SendCloud’s software ensures everything runs that vital bit smoother, faster, and more efficiently.


SendCloud Key Benefits of using Trustpilot Updated

1. Get informed on how they’re performing
2. Find out where they can innovate and optimize
3. Have a platform that allows them to impress their customers with social proof

### The proof is in the pudding

Just recently, SendCloud’s marketing team launched a retargeting campaign where they A/B tested Trustpilot’s effect for three weeks. One half of the audience was shown regular Facebook ads, while the other half was shown the same ads with the addition of the Trustpilot logo and star rating. 

The results speak for themselves: the Trustpilot version had __an increased conversion rate of 125%__, and the conversion cost was __30% lower than usual__.

### Feedback-driven progress is the best progress

SendCloud’s customer service department also actively reaps the benefits of reviews. Using an [integration between Trustpilot and Zendesk](https://support.trustpilot.com/hc/en-us/articles/227199548-Zendesk-Trustpilot-Integration), SendCloud’s customer service is automatically informed every time a new review comes in. 

The integration also makes it a piece of cake to reply to the review from within Zendesk. 

A [Slack-integration](https://zapier.com/apps/slack/integrations/trustpilot) then makes it easy to share the reviews with the rest of the company. Compliments, valuable feedback and points of criticism are all addressed, so internal processes are continuously improved and optimized. 

For example, if a lot of reviews focus on a specific feature and how it could be improved, SendCloud’s UX designers get informed and involved.



SendCloud quote Trustpilot is intuitive

### Growth ambitions on an international scale

SendCloud is growing rapidly, both nationally and internationally. Their mission is to help every retailer in the world optimize their shipping process. That’s why SendCloud also collects reviews from customers outside of the Netherlands, so they can win over the confidence and trust of companies in other markets. 

Using Trustpilot’s [tag function](https://support.trustpilot.com/hc/en-us/articles/203840856-Tagging-and-pre-tagging-service-reviews), reviews can be sorted and showcased based on language. So when you visit SendCloud’s German website, you’ll be presented with their overall star rating, but only German reviews.


SendCloud x Trustpilot case study quote on building trust

At the moment, SendCloud has Trustpilot reviews in English, German, Dutch and French, but it’s not going to stop there. Their ambition is to be active in eight new countries within the next two years. By now, the company has a very good grasp on what does and doesn’t work when entering a new market. 

One of the most important elements is building up trust and brand awareness — and reviews play a pivotal role in both of these things.

Icelolly statistics.PNG

- 7,700+ reviews
- 9/10 TrustScore
- Google Seller Rating increase from 0 to 4.5
- 100% review response rate
- 90% of all reviews are 4 or 5 star


### Why Trustpilot?

When we first spoke to Icelolly.com, Sharon Addy, Compliance and Customer Experience Manager, explained:
 
“We’ve got one of the widest selections of holidays out there, and we’re determined to help people find the holiday that’s special to them.” 
 
Today, it’s safe to say that Trustpilot is an even more important part of the business. Icelolly.com still wishes to carry on growing by building an even stronger review strategy and by boosting consumer trust and loyalty with customer feedback.
 
“We find that customer feedback is key to success, and we’re keen to build this to the next level. Our TrustScore means everything to the business, and it plays a vital part in helping us build consumer trust in our brand.”



### ‘We’ve seen a Google Seller Rating increase’

With thousands of reviews, Google began taking notice of Icelolly.com’s fresh content and prominence in the holiday field.

For this, they’ve seen their search engine rankings improve, often appearing on the first search engine results page alongside their Trustpilot business profile.

And it doesn’t stop there - Google Seller Ratings improved too.

“With Trustpilot we’ve been able to benchmark our performance against other travel businesses,” says Sharon.

“We’ve seen our Google Seller Rating increase to an overall score of 4.5 (out of 5) as a result of the reviews we’re collecting, which is a great achievement from our standing start.”

### Using Trustpilot internally

Icelolly.com uses the Trustpilot tool in a variety of ways: Service Reviews, Dashboard, Analytics, Get Reviews… The holiday comparison website believes leveraging Trustpilot as social proof plays a big part in the company’s success. That’s why Icelolly.com’s marketing team recently started promoting Trustpilot via email and social platforms.

“We use Trustpilot across social platforms such as WhatsApp, Facebook, and also via our influencer hub. The team have only just started promoting customer feedback through these platforms and the number of reviews has already increased dramatically.”


Icelolly reviews facebook.PNG

Since Icelolly.com started promoting reviews via email and social channels, their TrustScore increased from an initial 8.7, to a great 8.9 in just 6 weeks, and recently went up to a fantastic 9/10! 

The travel user journey can be long, so it’s important to keep consumers engaged with your business at every step of the journey. To build trust throughout the research booking processes, Icelolly.com leverages Trustpilot reviews on all its website’s key pages.


Icelolly trustpilot widget website.PNG

On top of sharing reviews through key channels, Icelolly.com works hard to maintain its great TrustScore and brand reputation by encouraging the team to respond to every review within a 24-hour period. 

“We have learnt a lot from using Trustpilot over the past couple of years. We aim to respond quickly to every review, and should a reviewer have any issues with our service, we pride ourselves on acting upon the feedback and helping our customers as much as we can.”

Icelolly.com takes on board every comment which is left, and learns from it as much as possible. 

“We made a lot of changes to Icelolly.com over the past couple of years, some of which have come from the comments received from our Trustpilot users.”

Aside from consumer-facing benefits, Trustpilot has affected staff morale positively too.

“Trustpilot has had a positive impact internally as we’re able to share the happiness our customers feel. It’s become an integral part of our business, with performance being shared and discussed at a senior level on a weekly basis.”

Icelolly.com uses Trustpilot to showcase its great reputation and learn from customer feedback, but also likes to engage with its existing and new customers to improve the overall client-company conversation, and boost customer loyalty.

### Going forward…

“The challenge Icelolly.com will face going forward is to maintain and improve its great TrustScore, and keep collecting more reviews. Reinforcing trust in Icelolly.com plays a vital part in making it a successful business, and Trustpilot is helping us achieve our long-term goal.”

“I would recommend any company who are wanting to gather customer reviews to do it through Trustpilot. The interface is easy to navigate, use, and manage, and the staff are always here for any questions you might have.”

With so much commitment to Trustpilot, Icelolly.com is securing a trusted, transparent future. Isn’t it time you joined them?

LoveBook Key Benefits of using Trustpilot Reviews

## Building up social proof throughout the shopping journey

So, how do you convince leery customers to take a chance on a never-before-seen gift idea? You put signals of legitimacy and third-party validation right wherever they’re looking, of course. 

Chris and the team at LoveBook knew that anytime customers type “LoveBook reviews” into Google, they’re still researching their purchase. They’re not totally sure about the shopping or product experience they’ll have with the company, so they’re on the hunt for trust signals like social proof that others just like them had a positive experience with LoveBook. 

Before joining Trustpilot, LoveBook didn’t have a whole slew of reviews to help convince potential customers about their product. Now, when a customer searches online for “LoveBook reviews” they see LoveBook’s display ad with [Google Seller Rating stars](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/google-seller-ratings-adwords-perform-better-than-ever) first in the SERPs, followed closely by [LoveBook’s business profile page on Trustpilot](https://www.trustpilot.com/review/www.lovebookonline.com) and its [organic Review Snippet stars](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/why-does-google-care-if-your-business-has-online-reviews-in-2019) ranking second in organic results. 

That’s a one-two punch of trust signals if we’ve ever seen one, and as Chris mentioned in the above video — this degree of social proof certainly takes the heavy lifting off of [other marketing activities](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/build-trusted-brand/using-trustpilot-reviews-in-your-marketing-strategy). It’s pretty well established that [more is better](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/build-trusted-brand/3-reasons-why-you-really-need-to-get-more-reviews) when it comes to reviews and social proof, and LoveBook is in great shape on that front with more than 32,200 reviews at the time of publication. 

Chris and his team have realized over the years that some customers just want to look at the star ratings, and some want to look at the percentage of positive reviews. Either way, with a __TrustScore of 9.5 and 89% of their reviews clocking in at 5 stars__, they’re leading with a phenomenal reputation when potential customers go looking for them online. 


LoveBook Trustpilot Profile Page

## Perfecting new features with some help from Review Insights

When Trustpilot launched [Review Insights](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/learn-from-customers/introducing-trustpilots-new-machine-learning-tool-review-insights), the team at LoveBook was immediately intrigued. With so many reviews at their fingertips, they knew they were likely sitting on a [goldmine of consumer insights](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/learn-from-customers/what-are-consumer-insights-and-how-do-i-use-them) that could help their business grow. 

Adopting the [Review Insights](https://support.trustpilot.com/hc/en-us/articles/360012057153--Get-a-deeper-understanding-of-your-reviews-with-Review-Insights) feature allowed Chris and his team to see how they were doing as far as the UX on their website, to the quality of the books they shipped, down to personal anecdotes about how the gift was received. 

Now when the team at LoveBooks releases a new feature or capability on their website, they create a Review Insights topic segment to track sentiments about that particular aspect of the LoveBook customer experience. 

For example, when they piloted a new site feature that allows shoppers to rapidly build a custom book, they wanted to track what users thought about the updated experience. Their Review Insights segment for this new feature revealed that their sentiment score about the book-building experience increased from __67 to 89 in just two weeks__. 

That’s a __33% increase in sentiment score__, and a big vote of confidence for their new product feature. 

LoveBook now applies this strategy to all of their new product and feature releases, so they can ensure they’re delivering an ideal shopping and gift-giving experience to their customers.

## Using review content to go the extra mile for customer experience 

There’s no question that using consumer insights to fine-tune feature releases leads to big wins in business, but Chris and the team at LoveBook saw another creative opportunity to use review content to complement their well-loved products with an unforgettable customer experience. 

Because Trustpilot reviews allows the team to zero in on the emotional stories behind each review, the team at LoveBook can easily foster a one on one relationship with customers who need a little extra love in their lives. 

That’s why Chris and his team were inspired to __start an internal company initiative called Simply Love__. 

Whether it’s sending the customer a condolence card to support them in a time of need, or a thoughtful gesture like donating to a relevant charity in their name, we have no doubt that the Simply Love program means the world to LoveBook customers. 

## Become more customer-focused and your business is sure to thank you

At the end of the day, LoveBook has done an excellent job of using Trustpilot to build customer confidence at the top of the buying journey — but perhaps more importantly, they’ve also created a dialogue with their customers that allows them to turn good feedback into great products and experiences.

PhysioRoom Trustpilot Product Reviews Key Benefits

To better understand how the business uses product reviews to learn from their customers and exceed sales targets, we spoke with Lee Bannister, Head of Contact Center at [PhysioRoom.com](https://www.physioroom.com/).




Lee Bannister Implementation Quote

## Understanding the attributes behind the product rating

Because PhysioRoom.com also manufactures some of its products, they look to product reviews to inform their internal product development and to make sure they’re providing exactly what their customers need. For example, if a product has consistent reviews citing low value for money, they know everyone would benefit from refining that product.

For this reason, they were particularly interested in a product review solution that made it super easy for customers to describe specific characteristics. 

Enter: [Product Attributes](https://support.trustpilot.com/hc/en-us/articles/360011913693-Product-Attributes-Ask-customers-to-rate-details-of-your-product), a Trustpilot feature that allows customers to rate key product features, thereby providing helpful insights to fellow shoppers and valuable feedback to product sellers. 

Because Product Attributes are a standard out of the box feature for Trustpilot Product Reviews, it was easy for PhysioRoom.com to get everything up and running. In no time it was clear that offering this kind of in-depth look at specific product characteristics leads to customer confidence and easier purchasing decisions (read: more online sales).

Lee Bannister Product Attributes Quote

Their Product Return Specialist also benefits from this additional level of insight into their products and expects to see a lower rate of return now that customers are far more informed about the product before buying.


Trustpilot product reviews

## Why the method of collecting product review matters

Before signing on for Trustpilot Product Reviews, PhysioRoom.com only collected product reviews with a link in the order confirmation email, and on the product page itself. As a result, they had just a humble number of reviews flowing in, making it difficult to use them as a resource for product development or customer feedback. 


Lee Bannister reviews increased by 2000 percent

With Trustpilot Product Reviews, their customers are asked to leave the review 10 days after they purchase an item. This simple tweak in the review collection process resulted in a huge increase in product review collection, from 10 reviews on average to 200 reviews per month — an impressive 1,900% increase.


Before and After Trustpilot Product Reviews

The team at PhysioRoom.com also attributes some of this success to [the power of third-party validation](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/reviews/why-87-of-consumers-find-ads-more-trustworthy-with-trustpilot). Because the Trustpilot review invitation email features the Trustpilot logo and stars, customers feel confident in the integrity of the review platform and are more likely to leave a review. 

## Exceeding sales targets with Trustpilot Product Reviews

On top of their booming review collection, PhysioRoom.com has noticed some additional improvements since implementing Trustpilot’s Product Reviews — the detailed information available through Product Attributes has even created a positive ripple effect on the consultative way the sales team discusses products and solutions with customers. 

With the higher number of detailed reviews to refer to, the sales team is empowered to deliver nuanced and accurate product information to make sure customers walk away satisfied every time. 

PhysioRoom.com has also enjoyed an uptick in sales from their B2B customer base of medical and fitness professionals, who also read their newly detailed product reviews and refer to relevant ones during their patient consultations. Incorporating this helpful source of information (and a healthy dose of social proof) into their patient and client consultations has led to a steady increase in sales of PhysioRoom.com’s products — __translating to a solid 8% increase in their B2B product sales month on month__. 

As PhysioRoom.com continues to grow and improve, we have no doubt that they’ll harness the power of Trustpilot Product Reviews in new ways that lead to better product offerings, and ever-improving experiences for everyone.

Ready to join them at the front lines of customer experience and innovation? Trustpilot can help you use Product Reviews to learn key insights from you customers.

## How Fantastic Services leverage Trustpilot

### 1. Encourage customer feedback

The company understands that no matter how refined a service is, there is always room for improvement. That is why every time one of the company's existing or new customers receives a service, Fantastic Services [sends an еmail](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/reviews/build-trusted-brand/3-reasons-why-you-really-need-to-get-more-reviews) encouraging the customer to share about their experience. 

By doing so, the company has the chance to learn about the positive or negative aspects of a certain service. Besides taking the feedback and applying it to improve the company’s products, if a client of Fantastic Services has experienced any sort of issue regarding a service, a customer care specialist will contact them to resolve the matter.

Hvordan bygger man bro mellem genbrug og troværdighed? Dette spørgsmål har virksomheden Refurb været nødt til at stille sig selv og finde svaret på. Læs med hér, og find ud af, hvordan de gør.

Refurb blev grundlagt i 2008 ud fra tanken om at gøre en forskel ved at opkøbe brugt IT-udstyr af høj kvalitet fra erhvervslivet, klargøre det, så det er så godt som nyt, og sælge det videre til virksomheder, offentlige institutioner og forbrugere. De få dele, der ikke kan genbruges, bliver derimod genanvendt, så intet går til spilde. Og det er ikke kun blevet ved tanken; Refurb håndterer nemlig 70.000 enheder om året og anses for at være blandt de førende virksomheder inden for genbrugt IT i Skandinavien.

Refurb har skabt en forretning baseret på cirkulær økonomi, og det gjorde de endda, før begrebet blev alment kendt. Når de har købt brugt IT-udstyr, sletter de først dataene, hvorefter de renoverer, rengør og tester udstyret, også kaldet “refurbishing”. Næste skridt er at installere ny software, og så er det igen klar til salg. Alt sammen er med til at gøre en forskel for miljøet, der virkelig kan mærkes.

Men elektronik er fintfølende, så Refurb er nødt til at sikre, at hele loopet fungerer, fra de får et brugt produkt ind, til det når ud til slutbrugeren. Og det kan de finde ud af ved hjælp af feedback fra deres kunder. Derfor tilmeldte de sig Trustpilot i 2011 for at indsamle anmeldelser og få bedre indsigt i deres virksomhed og produkter. Og med et samlet antal anmeldelser på 7.700 er der en del indsigt at hente.

På Refurbs forside ses et udpluk af deres anmeldelser, stjernebedømmelse og samlet antal anmeldelser.

Udpluk af anmeldelser

## Værdifuld indsigt fra kundeanmeldelser

Refurb anvender indsigterne fra deres kundefeedback til at gennemgå alle trin i deres produktrejse og forbedre kundeoplevelsen, for elektronik kræver stor årvågenhed. 
Hvis en kunde for eksempel skriver, at vedkommende har købt en computer, der ikke vil starte, kan Refurb gå i dialog med kunden og bruge anmeldelsen til at finde ud af, hvor problemet ligger. Det kan være den pågældende model, der er problemet, det kan være opstået under deres behandling af produktet, eller måske ligger fejlen hos fragtfirmaet. Hvis det drejer sig om modellen, tager de den muligvis ud af deres sortiment, hvis problemet er opstået under deres behandling af produktet, sørger de for at forbedre deres processer, og hvis fragtfirmaet har ansvaret, løser de problemet i samarbejde med dem. 
Refurbs kundeservice og marketingafdeling har især stor gavn af indsigten fra deres kundeanmeldelser. Eksempelvis har Refurbs marketingafdeling ved hjælp af kundefeedback kunnet forbedre indpakningen af deres laptops, så emballagen nu beskytter deres produkter optimalt. Peter Hove, medstifter og kommunikationsdirektør i Refurb, siger:

> *"I forbindelse med overgangen fra standardpapkasser til vores egne, brandede kasser var det alfa og omega, at det – udover et visuelt løft – også blev oplevet som både bedre, mere sikkert og lettere ifm. returnering, af vores kunder. Derfor fulgte vi, særligt i perioden efter introduktionen af den nye indpakning, al kunderespons meget tæt. Det gjaldt (og gælder) også Trustpilot, hvor vi får masser af indsigter om ikke kun selve produktet, men også vores emballage, fordi emballagens primære opgave er at beskytte produktet under transport, og så må det visuelle være sekundært."*

## Social proof skaber troværdighed

Udfordringen for Refurb har især været at opbygge forbrugernes tillid til genbrugt IT-udstyr. Derfor har Refurb brug for at vise deres kunder, at de kan regne med dem, og at deres produkter er trygge valg. Med Trustpilots widgets viser de deres 5-stjernede bedømmelse, samlet antal anmeldelser og TrustScore på 4.8 på deres website, i deres markedsføring og på de sociale medier.

Refurb fremviser deres bedømmelser og antal anmeldelser øverst og nederst på deres websider.

Stjerner og score øverst

Stjerner og score nederst

Og social proof er ideelt til at bygge bro mellem genbrug og troværdighed. Rasmus Berg Madsen, Refurbs Operations Manager, fortæller:

> *"For år tilbage oplevede vi en vis mistro til det at købe genbrugt IT – det var før begreber som refurbishment og cirkulær økonomi var så udbredte, som de er i dag. Det var derfor altafgørende for os, at vores kunder havde et ærligt og åbent forum, hvor de kunne dele deres oplevelser – og særligt vigtigt, at det ikke var modereret af os. Derfor var Trustpilot den helt rigtige løsning til at vise vores kunder, at der ikke var noget, de skulle bekymre sig om. Trustpilot er stadig et værdifuldt redskab – særligt stjernesystemet – til at sikre social proof og vise, at man faktisk godt kan stole på, at vi leverer et godt produkt."*

For Refurb er genbrug det grønne guld, og kundernes tillid til genbrugt IT er grundlæggende for at kunne sprede det gode budskab. Så da de nåede hele 7.000 anmeldelser på Trustpilot, markerede de det på deres Facebook-profil.

Enkla Juridik

Læs, hvordan det svenske advokatfirma Enkla Juridik øgede konverteringsraten med 36 % ved hjælp af TrustBoxe.

Enkla Juridiks medarbejdere er juridiske eksperter inden for områder som familieret, immigrationsret, erhvervsret osv.

Enkla Juridiks jurister

__Enkla Juridik__ er et digitalt advokatfirma med kontor i Stockholm, Linköping og Örebro, men de tilbyder deres services over hele landet. De yder kvalificeret rådgivning i juridiske sager inden for både civil- og virksomhedsret. Vi snakkede med Enkla Juridiks administrerende direktør, Niels Groenewegen, som gav os et indblik i, hvordan de bruger Trustpilot, og hvilke resultater de har opnået.

Enkla Juridik begyndte at bruge Trustpilot i foråret 2018 med det formål at styrke deres omdømme. Idéen var at nå ud til potentielle klienter og fremvise deres dygtige jurister. Med over 300 anmeldelser og en stjernebedømmelse på 4,9 er Enkla Juridik på nuværende tidspunkt rangeret som nr. 1 i kategorien *Juridisk rådgivning* på Trustpilots svenske website.

*__“Vi vil vise, hvor dygtige vores jurister er, og dermed styrke vores omdømme”, siger Niels Groenewegen, Enkla Juridiks administrerende direktør.__*

Advokatfirmaets website er nemt at finde rundt på, og det fremgår tydeligt, hvem de er, og hvad de kan hjælpe med. På hver webside har de integreret en TrustBox-widget, som fremviser deres stjernebedømmelse og antal anmeldelser, så besøgende og potentielle klienter nemt får øje på og kan læse om de oplevelser, tidligere klienter har haft med firmaet.

Som marketingansvarlig arbejder Niels Groenewegen aktivt med at synliggøre anmeldelser på firmaets website samt i deres markedsføring på sociale medier og Google. Udover disse initiativer bruger Enkla Juridiks medarbejdere også TrustBoxe i deres e-mailsignaturer.

## Mennesker og tal

Kundetilfredshed kan ofte måles i tal, men bag tallene er mennesker og deres oplevelser. For at opnå en målbart højere kundetilfredshed kræver det, at man foretager et kvalitativt arbejde med fokus på god kundeservice og åbenhed over for feedback. En god stjernebedømmelse på Trustpilot er tydelig online og øger antallet af besøgende og potentielle klienter, som kan booste både konverteringsraten og salget.

For Enkla Juridik har Trustpilots widgets, som fremviser klienternes anmeldelser og bedømmelser på deres website, været den mest værdifulde Trustpilot-funktion, da den har været med til at øge konverteringsraten på deres startside med hele 36 %. Og efter de integrerede en TrustBox-widget på deres “Om os”-side, er konverteringsraten steget med 20 %. Dette er en fantastisk fremgang, som er et direkte resultat af den tillid, kundeanmeldelser er med til at opbygge.

På billedet ses data fra perioden før og efter, Enkla Juridik implementerede Trustpilots widgets på deres website den 18. maj 2019.

Enkla Juridik - data

Takket være alle anmeldelser, som skrives om Enkla Juridik på Trustpilot, er firmaet også blevet mere synlige på Google. Med en konstant strøm af nye kundeanmeldelser er det lykkedes Enkla Juridik at kvalificere sig til Google Sellers Ratings, som nu ses i deres Google-annoncer. __Siden da er klikraten på deres Google-annoncer steget med 1,7 %.__

Advokatfirmaet bruger også Trustpilots markedsføringsmateriale i retargeting-annoncer på Facebook og Instagram, og Niels Groenewegen er begejstret for effekten:

“Resultatet er, at mange klienter, der ikke kontaktede os i første omgang, vender tilbage. Og derudover styrker det vores omdømme over for besøgende, der ikke har en presserende juridisk sag, men som muligvis får brug for hjælp i fremtiden.”

## Jura handler om mennesker

Jura handler om mennesker, og dér kommer Trustpilot ind i billedet. For et firma som Enkla Juridik, som brænder for netop disse to ting, er klienternes oplevelser det vigtigste. Ved hjælp af Trustpilot-anmeldelser får advokatfirmaet en konstant strøm af feedback og et bedre indblik i, hvordan de kan udvikle deres forretning med den individuelle oplevelse i fokus. De har eksempelvis fundet ud af, at de ikke var klare nok i deres kommunikation om, hvordan klienterne kan få deres juridiske omkostninger godtgjort. Enkla Juridik arbejder dagligt med at skabe en tryg og smidig oplevelse for mennesker, som har brug for hjælp med alt fra administrative sager til juridiske tvister, og det går ikke ubemærket hen.
