If you want to consistently capture more “heart-centered” testimonials from your customers, clients or students, then ask them to give you their endorsements with the “Before/After/After” format.

Glossary: The “Before/After/After” testimonial is your customer’s experience of what their life was life BEFORE utilizing your product, immediately AFTER utilizing it, and what their life is like TODAY.
