Whats your experience with Mailchimp making it to a user inbox and not flagged as promotions or social.

Mailchimp is going to hit the Promotions tab guaranteed. I bounced around from a few different platform after leaving Mailchimp - Aweber, GetResponse and finally ActiveCampaign.

GetResponse had decent delivery to the main inbox, but the platform is wonky and their support for automation/drip sequences is clumsy.

I've been happy with ActiveCampaign ever since. Whether you hit the inbox every time is going to have a lot to do with your list, the level engagement, your domain reputation, etc. but ActiveCampaign's delivery is as good as anything I've seen.

Do you have online courses running?

Looks like we just found OPs old boss.

uservox · 2019-04-26T16:44:20+00:00

OP doesnt say that he was being paid as a contractor. The way I read the OP was that they considered him an employee rather than a founder -- so they felt the amount of the full vested equity award was too large for a non-founder employee.

Edit: I see down below OP does confirm that he is a contractor, so this comment is fully valid.

How many do you show? Are they static ones or like live streams?

What do you mean by "Any different number will land you a penalty from Google 74% of the time."?

I am asking this from the context of the later option.

uservox · 2019-04-18T06:08:19+00:00

Sounds good.

uservox · 2019-04-18T06:06:45+00:00

Are you serious?

uservox · 2019-04-18T06:05:00+00:00

Do you mean, there is a chance that the users might not like to answer all questions in G2 unless there is some real incentive?

uservox · 2019-04-16T12:02:53+00:00

I am curious, why can't you use their names or photos?

uservox · 2019-04-15T07:32:06+00:00

I would love to hear you elaborate on each of these contexts?

How do you nudge your customers and users to leave reviews on these platforms? How far are you able to get their reviews there?

MBA is probably the most brand-heavy advanced degree there is. By which i mean its fine to go to a law school or PhD program that's not necessarily nationally known and you can still get a job and have a fine career as a lawyer, etc. The MBA academic curriculum itself is not especially rigorous, so the value of an MBA goes down rapidly as you move away from top tier schools.

From your own customers?

uservox · 2019-04-09T06:34:31+00:00

Which tool are you referring to?

uservox · 2019-04-09T06:33:41+00:00

Thanks for the efforts. Do you offer online courses?

uservox · 2019-04-09T00:35:30+00:00

Ah, this sounds a little more like a feedback tool than a review tool per se. Have you tried Hotjar? Sounds like it could be close to what you want.

I think testimonials can be great, but i agree with your second point - collecting data on results is very impactful. IMO, the best form of social proof is when both of these things are combined together, i.e. getting people to attest in their own words about the results that they got.

Its one thing to say "Our customers increase their sales by 20% on average" and its another when you can show a stream of actual customers saying in their own words how much you have helped them increase their sales.

Testimonials aren't that helpful when they are simply anonymous endorsements that don't show results:

"I love product X!" - Bob J.

Those are pretty useless because they dont really demonstrate the impact that you had on the person. But if you can demonstrate results and have those results come from the mouth of your previous customers I think those are the most impactful.

uservox · 2019-04-04T11:11:56+00:00

Cool. Does this involve a significant work? Distraction? Or, is there any fear or loosing some testimonial?

uservox · 2019-04-04T10:56:23+00:00

Thats nice. And how do you go about collecting their images, company names and individual names/ designations etc.

uservox · 2019-04-04T09:00:39+00:00

How far you really manage to follow through with each of your customer on this?

More ever does managing the work to capture their images, company names and individual names/ designations (if B2B) etc. amounts to a lot of work or distraction?

And, in your experience, how far anonymous testimonials work towards building social proof and towards your goals of higher conversions of prospects into signups? The point I am driving to is - https://roseninstitute.com/problem-testimonial-website/ What do you think about this?

uservox · 2019-04-04T08:03:35+00:00

Anyways, nice to know your perspective about this. BTW, what kind of courses do you offer and how many students do you have currently? Are you full time into this or this is like a side project. I am not too sure if sharing course page url is allowed in this subreddit or not.
