Here are some tips for responding to an email asking for a review or testimonial:

Be sincere and honest

• If you had a positive experience, share that honestly. Readers value authenticity.

Highlight specific details

• Mention what exactly you liked – the quality of service, attention to detail, how the company resolved any issues, etc. Specificity builds credibility.

Keep it short and simple

• A testimonial doesn’t have to be long. One or two sentences highlighting your experience is sufficient.

Offer to be contacted for more details

• Readers may want to follow up for more info. Offer your availability to provide additional details if needed.

Use it as an opportunity

• Ask if the company can write a testimonial for you too. Building such relationships tends to be mutually beneficial.

Follow up if you don’t want to provide one

• If you didn’t have a positive enough experience to provide a testimonial, it’s best to politely decline while offering suggestions for improvement.
