What the heck is social proof? And how can we use it in our one-on-one service-based business?
In this episode of Serve Scale Soar®, I’m diving into this topic and sharing the different types of social proof that you can add to your business so that you can land more clients that actually pay your premium prices.
If you don’t know what social proof is, it’s a psychological phenomenon where people assume the actions of others in an attempt to reflect correct behavior for a given situation.
People want to take the actions that other people have taken because they want to get the same results those people had. It’s incredibly effective and it can be used in your one-on-one freelance business.
There are four main types of social proof that you can use in your business. I’m sharing what they are, the best way to use them, and who it’s for.
