Les préférences de chacun varient selon l’emplacement d’un hôtel, le type d’hébergement, les activités, etc. Pour la plupart des entreprises qui proposent des forfaits vacances, ces variables peuvent facilement se transformer en un véritable cauchemar logistique.
Mas ce n’est pas le cas de l’équipe icelolly.com. Et les commentaires élogieux sur leur entreprise le prouvent. 

Icelolly.com présente sur son site plus de 130 millions d'offres de voyages d'entreprises britanniques.

Cyklepartner-FR

## Les succès majeurs de Cykelpartner

Après être devenu éligible pour afficher l’extension d’annonces Google Seller Ratings, grâce au partenariat avec Trustpilot, Cykelpartner a enregistré :

1. Une réduction de 11,14% du CPA sur Google AdWords
2. Une augmentation de 22,54% des conversions sur le site pour le trafic provenant d’AdWords
3. Des économies de plus de 40 000€ par an pour son budget AdWords


## Pourquoi Trustpilot ?

Cykelpartner a toujours mis en priorité l’offre d’un service client de qualité. L’objectif de l’entreprise n’a jamais été de réduire ses dépenses le plus possible, mais bien d’être la meilleure enseigne, une enseigne sur laquelle les consommateurs peuvent compter.

Avance rapide jusqu'en 2017 : Cykelpartner a maintenant 33 employés à plein temps et 20 employés à mi-temps. L'entreprise est réputée pour sa grande sélection de pièces détachées ainsi que pour sa proximité avec ses clients.

Cykelpartner affiche son succès - plus de 19 000 avis collectés - en header de son site web

Cykelpartner reconnaît Trustpilot comme une plateforme ouverte et transparente où ses clients sont écoutés et libres de s'exprimer. L'entreprise utilise les avis pour se démarquer de ses concurrents et améliorer ses services à tous les niveaux. Le succès de Cykelpartner - une note de 9.7/10 et plus de 19 000 avis - a permis à l’entreprise d’obtenir l’extension Google Seller Ratings pour ses annonces Google AdWords, ce qui a résulté en d'impressionnants gains financiers.


## Le succès de l’extension Google Seller Ratings

Après avoir obtenu l’extension Google Seller Rating (GSR) en collectant assez d’avis sur Trustpilot et en ayant une note élevée, Cykelpartner a enregistré des résultats significatifs.

En collectant des avis via Trustpilot, Cykelpartner est devenu éligible pour les extensions d’annonces Google Seller Ratings, affichées en haut de ses annonces AdWords.

cykelpartner+gsr

L’extension Google Seller Rating, encadrée en vert ci-dessus, a généré une augmentation moyenne des conversions de 22,54% pour les cinq campagnes AdWords de l’entreprise. Cykelpartner a enregistré un total de 145 961 impressions pour ses cinq campagnes dont 774 ont été converties en achats pendant la durée du test.

Avec un CTR en baisse, un CPC en légère augmentation et les GSR activés, Cykelpartner a généré plus de 22,5% de conversions supplémentaire et a réduit le CPA de 11% en moyenne pour les 5 campagnes actives pendant le test.

La faible réduction du CTR et une légère augmentation du CPC ont permis à Cykelpartner d'observer une réduction cruciale de 11,4% de son CPA Google AdWords pour ses cinq différentes campagnes et des économies de plus de 40 000€ par an.

Ceci a fait de Google AdWords un canal beaucoup plus efficace au niveau du ROI pour Cykelpartner, ce qui a été clé pour le développement de l’entreprise au sein de marchés additionnels.


## Utiliser les avis pour améliorer l’entreprise dans sa globalité

Cykelpartner utilise ses avis Trustpilot pour améliorer tous les secteurs de son entreprise. Des tests A/B ont été menés sur les différents widgets de Trustpilot - intégrations affichant les avis collectés par Cykelpartner - sur plusieurs pages de son site pour booster les conversions pendant le parcours d’achat.



Pour réduire les abandons de paniers et encourager plus d’utilisateurs à passer à l’achat, Cykelpartner affiche un widget Trustpilot contenant ses avis sur la page de panier de son site web.

L’entreprise utilise aussi ses avis comme un outil pour remercier et motiver les employés de ses départements différents, par exemple en soulignant individuellement un succès quand un avis Trustpilot dit du bien d’un des membres de l’équipe.

Les avis sont aussi utilisés pour soutenir les efforts de l’équipe d’assistance client. Ils sont utilisés comme moyen de réaliser le suivi des problèmes des clients mécontents pour aider les représentants du service client à appeler les clients de manière préparée en se basant sur ce qu’ils ont lu dans leurs avis. L’objectif de Cykelpartner est de résoudre les problèmes de ventes, retours et de s’occuper de toutes autres plaintes lors du premier appel, ce qui permet d’éviter un grand nombre de communications par e-mails inefficaces et des allers retours frustrants entre les clients et les représentants.

Lorsqu’un client s’est plaint que l'alternative proposée pour le produit en rupture de stock était trop onéreuse, un des représentants de Cykelpartner lui a téléphoné pour s’excuser personnellement du désagrément. Le représentant du service a expliqué que la procédure standard de l’entreprise pour traiter les produits épuisés est d’offrir un produit comparable qui est immédiatement disponible, et si l’alternative est plus chère, Cykelpartner couvrira la différence de coût pour éviter que le client paie des frais supplémentaires.

L’expérience a permis à l’équipe de réaliser que leur communication doit être plus précise, et ils ont apporté des modifications à leurs process, afin d’expliquer plus clairement la procédure concernant les produits épuisés.

Tous les témoignages que Cykelpartner a collectés avec Trustpilot sont considérés comme des outils précieux pour tous les départements de l’entreprise, qu’ils portent sur le produit, le service client ou le site web.


## Poursuivre une stratégie gagnante avec les avis

Cykelpartner va continuer à collecter des avis et à mesurer son succès en utilisant la solution Trustpilot. Comme Søren Sieg Jensen, partenaire et Directeur technique chez Cykelpartner, l’a dit : “16 000 avis seront toujours mieux que 8 000, et 20 000 avis seront plus convaincants que 16 000 avis. Pour continuer à se démarquer de la concurrence, nous devons toujours collecter plus d’avis.”

En intégrant une stratégie proactive autour des avis, Cykelpartner a remarqué des résultats incroyables en utilisant ses avis pour commercialiser efficacement ses produits via ses campagnes AdWords, faire évoluer ses procédures et ses services et convertir plus de clients sur son site : les avis clients vont rester en tête de leurs priorités.

How to build a trusted site, as told by 2 successful eCommerce merchants

It takes a lot of work to build a site that consumers can trust. When you’re a new brand without established credibility, it can seem like a monumental task, but it can be done. To help you build trust, we take a look at 2 Trustpilot success stories.

With the help of the powerful website builders available today, launching an online business is easier than ever. But getting your first sale? That’s a different story. 

First, you have to get your products in front of the right audience. That’s no easy mountain to climb, but let’s say you dedicate hours of your time and energy into creating an impressive paid advertising campaign and start getting some traffic on your site. After all that hustle, you expect to see the sales rolling in, but visitors just aren’t converting. 

That’s because even with a kickass marketing strategy, you’re still only halfway up the mountain. 

Consumers are savvy these days. They know scammers are out there just waiting to steal their personal information, so they don’t give it out to just anyone. In order to get up and over the mountain top to that closed sale, online businesses need to earn the trust of their customers.

It takes a lot of thought, planning, and strategy to build a website that consumers feel comfortable making a purchase from. When you’re a new business without established credibility, that may seem like a monumental task, but we promise it can be done.

At [TrustedSite](https://www.trustedsite.com/certification/?from=home), like our partners at Trustpilot, we work to help eCommerce businesses create confident customers with powerful trust-building tools.

But it's not as simple as throwing up a trust badge or review widget and calling it a day. Friction can arise and cause doubt at many points throughout the customer journey, so trust must be built from the moment a customer lands on a site, all the way through to the order confirmation page (and even after that).

One of the best ways to learn how to build a trustworthy customer journey is by studying other sites that have done just that. 

So without further ado, meet two sites that are absolutely crushing it in the trust-building department: [The Sunglass Fix](https://www.thesunglassfix.com/) and [Holabird Sports](https://www.holabirdsports.com/). Even though they sell completely different products to different audiences, they have one thing in common: they’ve both been able to achieve awesome conversion rates with the help of trust. 

Let’s take a look at each of these sites and find out what elements they have included to their journeys in order to grow consumer trust. 

## Trust signals on thesunglassfix.com

Born on Australia’s Gold Coast back in 2006, [The Sunglass Fix](https://www.trustpilot.com/review/thesunglassfix.com.au) helps customers around the world replace broken or damaged sunglass lenses, a less expensive and more sustainable alternative to buying a brand new pair. Here’s a list of all of the [trust signals](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/guides-reports/build-trusted-brand/why-and-how-social-proof-influences-consumers) we could find on their website, built on OpenCart. 

### Site header


Sunglass fix homepage 1

A ton of punch is packed into the header. Since it follows customers throughout their journey, it makes sense to include lots of trust signals here. 

Starting on the left side, we see the Trustpilot reviews widget, which shows that the site has earned a 4.5 star rating from over 5,000 reviews. Impressive. Next, they’ve included everyone’s favorite message: free shipping! Finally, on the right side they link to their Help & FAQs page so customers can easily find support when they need it. 

### Site footer

Sunglass fix footer 2

Shoppers often look to a site footer to find more information about a business, especially when it's a new one they haven’t purchased from before. The company phone number and email address are listed here, which helps to build trust by showing that real people are working behind the scenes. They also display links to independent reviews sites, like Facebook, Google, and Yelp, which shows they are confident that customers are sharing positive feedback around the web.

### Floating

Sunglass fix about 3

Floating trust signals are useful because like the site header, they follow customers throughout their journey, providing reassurance along the way. The Sunglass Fix displays TrustedSite’s floating trustmark in the bottom right corner, which when clicked opens a modal that shows the site has earned certifications like [Verified Business](https://www.trustedsite.com/certification/verified-business), [Certified Secure](https://www.trustedsite.com/certification/certified-secure), and [Issue-Free Orders](https://www.trustedsite.com/certification/issue-free-orders) from an independent source. 

### About pages

Sunglass fix about 4

The Sunglass Fix shows they are truly an open book by sharing their history and values in the Our Story, Sustainability, and Awards pages. Here you’ll find info about their commitment to maintaining a low carbon footprint, along with awards for Outstanding Customer Service and Advanced Manufacturing. 

### Checkout

The checkout has all the information a customer would need to feel comfortable making a purchase, from the order summary and total to the accepted payment methods. They’ve also clearly called out that due to covid, shipping times are now longer. This helps to set the customer’s expectations for when their order will arrive, so there are no surprises after they complete the purchase.

## Trust signals on holabirdsports.com

Since 1981, family-owned and operated [Holabird Sports](https://www.trustpilot.com/review/www.holabirdsports.com) has specialized in running and racquet sports equipment. Here’s how they [use social proof to build consumer trust](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/reviews/build-trusted-brand/what-is-social-proof-and-why-is-it-important-for-marketing) throughout the buying journey on their webstore built on Shopify.

### Site header


holabird sports homepage 1

Like The Sunglass Fix, Holabird Sports knows the way to our hearts is with free shipping, so they let us know they offer it with orders over $49 in the header.

### Site footer


holabird spots footer 2

In the footer, they increase transparency in multiple ways. First, they display their excellent TrustScore of 4.8/5, along with a selection of verified customer reviews. They also display their business contact information including phone number, email address, and physical address, along with links to their social media profiles. Finally, they include accepted payment methods and TrustedSite’s Certified Secure trustmark, to reassure customers that their personal information is safe on the site.

In the footer, the TrustedSite floating trustmark is displayed in the bottom left corner to ensure that customers feel safe throughout their shopping journey.

### Product pages


Product page Holabird sports 3

If a customer had any doubts before landing on a product page, they certainly won't afterwards. Complimenting the crisp, clear photos depicting exactly what the products look like, icons calling out free shipping and returns are displayed, along with links to their official shipping policies so that customers quickly know what to expect. They also list detailed product descriptions that are extremely easy to read and display customer reviews as well.

### Shopping cart


holabird sports checkout 4

The cart calls out important information that customers need to know before they checkout. A note about shipping informs customers when orders go out, and that delivery dates aren’t guaranteed because of delays caused by COVID-19. There’s also a note that taxes and shipping are calculated at checkout, so the customer knows to expect an increase in their order total. They also display the TrustedSite Secure Checkout trustmark which informs shoppers that with their purchase they will receive $100k identity protection in the event that information is stolen within the next 90 days.

## In your own words, how do you build trust? 

To give you more insight into the trust-building strategies that these sites have put in place, we interviewed Craig Anderson, CEO and founder of The Sunglass Fix, and Brian Hirshfeld, owner of Holabird Sports.

### Why is building trust with your customers so important to your business?

__The Sunglass Fix:__ “When I came up with the idea, a lot of people thought I was going absolutely mad because I was starting a sunglass lens replacement business when nobody had done it in the past. I think if you talk to 100 people today and ask them “Can you replace the lenses in your sunglasses?” 99% probably haven’t heard of this concept. So when somebody lands on our site and is looking for a solution, building trust is the most important thing that we have to do, and we have to do that right off the bat.”

__Holabird Sports:__ “I think it’s important to build trust with customers because there are a million and one options out there for people to shop and spend their money. Although we have been around for 40 years, many people may come across our website and have no idea if we are a “legit” business or not. With so many massive websites out there selling similar products, we need to ensure our customers feel safe shopping with us, and that we’re doing everything to protect their information and offer the most secure shopping experience. We also want to make sure they know that our customer service will be second to none and are 100% satisfied with their experience.”

### What has been your strategy for building customer trust?

__The Sunglass Fix:__ “There are lots of ways that we've tried to achieve that. Using TrustedSite to be very confident that the customer's information is secure, and showing that to the customer is extremely important to us. Having the TrustedSite badge which customers can click on, read about what sort of security we have on the site, and learn that we're constantly monitored also helps to build trust.

Showcasing our awards is another strategy of ours. We won the Platinum Australia Customer Service Award three years in a row. That one is important because it shows that we do take care of the customers after the sale if there is any sort of an issue.

Having unmodifiable reviews out there is important to us too, so we can get feedback and use it to improve ourselves and to share with those that are contemplating a purchase with us. With Trustpilot, we're basically asking for honest feedback about our services from everybody that we sell to, and that stuff's untouched. We can respond to feedback, but if somebody gives a bad review, it's there.”

__Holabird Sports:__ “We have always believed in being on as many review websites and platforms as possible. Having unbiased and real customer feedback proves that we offer a great shopping experience that is hard to beat. We work to ensure all our customers have a great experience and will follow up with all reviews to check if there ever was an issue, and if so, we learn from it and improve.”

### What has been your experience using Trustpilot?

__The Sunglass Fix:__ “Trustpilot has been a really good experience for us in a lot of ways. We've always been open to customer feedback, good or bad. The good is very nice to hear and it builds that confidence level for future customers, but the bad is also a very important learning experience. If you don't hear about the bad experiences your customers have, you can't really improve your business. Trustpilot is easy to integrate and execute. It’s automated so we don't have to think about it a lot, but we do have to make sure we get out there and respond to customers. When we receive a negative review, we get to at least say something back and talk about what went wrong and what we're going to do to try to fix it for our customers.”

__Holabird Sports:__ “We have always used Trustpilot as a review partner. The ability to promote reviews and share people’s comments and feedback is presented nicely on the platform, and we have been happy with their services and platform.” 

### When and why did you decide to try TrustedSite, and what has the impact been on your site?

__The Sunglass Fix:__ “About five years ago we were looking for better tools to scan our site and make sure that things were as secure as possible. TrustedSite seemed like a great partner because we could sit back and focus on our business while also focusing on the site's security and preventing breaches that could potentially impact our customers’ private information. Having TrustedSite shows our customers that we care and shows that we're partnering with probably one of the biggest and best in the industry.”

__Holabird Sports:__ “We had always used McAfee for our website, so when presented with the new TrustedSite platform a few years ago, it was intriguing. At first, we were skeptical of a potential impact on business, but TrustedSite worked with us and provided an amazing experience with A/B testing to provide data that could not be argued. I think overall the impact on our business has been positive. I think it provides another level of protection and a feeling of security for customers who want that when shopping with new and unknown (to them) websites.”

## Wrapping up

There’s no single way to make your site a trusted site. It takes a combination of multiple trust signals placed strategically throughout the customer journey to ensure that customers feel comfortable making a purchase on your site.

Now that you’ve seen some great examples of sites that have implemented a successful trust-building strategy, consider how you can achieve the same. Start with simple trust signals, like displaying your contact information in your site’s header or footer, and work your way up to things like using an open review platform, and earning awards or certifications. With added trust, you’ll be well on your way to increasing sales.

How to build a trusted site, as told by two successful eCommerce merchants

G-form logo

G-Form converts more customers by showing off their social proof

G-Form shows off their excellent customer reviews throughout their customer journey for higher conversion rates and better brand trust.

That means embracing their own cutting edge (SmartFlex™) technology and constantly testing their products to make sure they’re offering the best protective gear on the market. 

From bikers to soccer players, the one common thread for athletes is that falls and injuries are pretty much inevitable. G-Form knows that fear and safety worries can have some of the worst effects on an athlete’s mindset and performance, so by providing the best protective gear available, they’re empowering their customers to focus on what matters most: being on top of their game. 

## The need for a third-party review platform

Initially, G-Form had an internal system in place to collect reviews manually. The more they grew and upgraded their website, the less efficient this became. As a smaller brand competing for market share from much bigger competitors, they also needed to [establish their  trustworthiness in the eyes of Google](https://business.trustpilot.com/reviews/build-trusted-brand/why-does-google-care-if-your-business-has-online-reviews-in-2019 "Why does Google care if your business has online reviews") and start [using SEO-friendly product reviews](https://business.trustpilot.com/features/product-reviews "Product Reviews") for better visibility in organic search. 

Collecting and showing off customer reviews with Trustpilot has helped them achieve exactly that. 

## Getting the most out of their customer reviews

One of the biggest reasons G-Form has had such success with customer reviews is because they understand how effective social proof is in building trust with unsure shoppers. Many eCommerce brands add their reviews to their homepage and leave it at that. 

But G-Form understands that the more places they can display their ratings or reviews, the more they’re letting the voice of their customers do the work for them to build much-needed trust with their future customers.

### Email marketing performs better with social proof

G-form makes sure to leverage their excellent rating in the footer of all of their marketing emails. It’s an excellent way to add a little bit of additional trust for their brand, and any shoppers that may be on the fence are able to click the footer and easily head to their Trustpilot page. 

From there, they can do their own research and read what G-Form customers are saying about their brand. This gives them a better idea of what customers are actually saying about G-Form products and allows them to make  confident purchasing decisions.


Including your star rating at the bottom of your marketing emails is an easy way to build trust with shoppers

Ratings in email footer

In many of their email flows, they also include full customer reviews. This helps them avoid leaning on tired marketing copy to fill the page and lets their happiest customers act as brand advocates and do the selling for them. 

Including customer reviews can be a great way to switch up your marketing emails 

Customer reviews in marketing emails

This is a perfect example of how fun and engaging reviews can be as pieces of content. With a bit of humor around a painful situation that many bikers can likely relate to, these types of reviews keep your brand fresh and relatable for the audience that will connect with your brand and products the most.

### Reviews lead to more ROI on paid social

Because it’s not a free channel like email, paid ads can carry a bit more of a risk. With every ad, part of your precious budget goes with it – so you want to maximize your ROI by making sure to take advantage of any way to boost the credibility of that ad [so people will actually click through](https://business.trustpilot.com/guides-reports/learn-from-customers/trustworthiness-in-advertising-what-consumers-have-to-say "Trustworthiness in advertising"). 


Star rankings on ads can help boost credibility

Star rating in paid social ad

That’s why G-Form highlights their excellent star rating on their paid social campaigns. Not only do the green stars catch more eyes, but they also show at the very beginning of the buying journey that they’re in good standing with a trusted third-party review site — and this goes the extra mile to help them earn trust with prospective customers. 

### Build confidence in specific products with product reviews

A star rating and general service level reviews are great for building a trusted brand — but depending on the type of products you sell, customers might need more specific insight into whatever [product attributes](https://support.trustpilot.com/hc/en-us/articles/360011913693-Manage-product-attributes "Manage product attributes") they’re looking for to feel comfortable making a purchase. 


Product reviews can help shoppers find more specific information than general service reviews

Product reviews on product pages

Injuries are scary, and they can also differ widely based on a lot of different factors. Because of this, general reviews about their products don’t necessarily build enough trust for shoppers to feel confident in their purchases. G-Form also sells gear for a few different sports, so reviews for baseball gear aren’t necessarily helpful for bikers or soccer players.

That's why G-Form leverages product reviews on their product pages, so that their customers can see reviews from the products they’re looking at specifically. This eliminates any last bits of doubt about whatever product they’re in the market for, and lets them decide to purchase based on only the most relevant feedback. 

Leveraging product reviews on your product pages can even improve conversion by up to 230%, making it a no brainer for any eCommerce business.

### Showing off customer feedback on organic social

One of the best places to be leveraging your review content is on your social channels. Not only is this going to be a huge win for whoever handles your social media by saving them a ton of time, but the content is also going to come across as a lot more genuine and engaging than if your social media is just you touting your own brand. 

Reviews from your customers can make excellent content for your social media channels 

Reviews as social media content

For someone who might be in the market for your products or services, seeing real reviews from happy customers on their social feeds can be a lot more impactful than seeing slick branded content or an outright ad for your brand. 

In addition to coming across as more genuine, reviews can often answer questions that someone might have had about a product before they thought to ask it, eliminating the need for them to go searching for answers before they complete the checkout process. 

## Reviews and their internal benefits 

When we asked G-Form to talk about any other benefits they were seeing from collecting reviews with Trustpilot, they talked about how reviews are not just helpful in conveying value to their customers — they’re really helpful for their employees internally as well.  

Trustpilot and G-Form

Trustpilot reviews have even helped guide decisions on sizing and alternative uses for their products. They started getting so many unexpected reviews about customers using their Pro-X2 knee pads for construction or everyday handiwork that they now take some of their reviews to their R&D department to help them plan for future product positions and rollouts.

ASAP Trustpilot case study

As an employment agency, people truly are the beating heart of the business. It takes dedicated individuals to match the right candidates with the right employers, and with so much daily human interaction, trust is key to the business’s success.

## Reviews are a powerful tool

As an employment agency, people truly are the beating heart of the business. It takes dedicated individuals to match the right candidates with the right employers, and with so much daily human interaction, trust is key to the business’s success. 

So how do you show potential candidates that their professional future and personal information are in good hands with you? That’s when social proof comes in... 

Social proof separates the good from the bad and the ugly, and is the most powerful weapon in your marketing arsenal. By proactively collecting and displaying reviews from candidates, you can differentiate yourself from agencies with a lower service level. 

That’s exactly what ASAP does. The employment agency builds trust throughout its entire candidate journey by showcasing reviews at various key points on its website — it even dedicated [an entire page](https://www.asap.be/nl/100%25-enjoy) to Trustpilot reviews! 


website homepage

Nothing says 'You can trust us' better than customer reviews on your website

Since ASAP started displaying Trustpilot reviews on its website, its conversion rate — the percentage of website visitors who applied for a job or created a user profile — has increased by a staggering 22%! Of course, Trustpilot is not the only factor responsible for this conversion boost, but it’s evident, from tests that ASAP conducted, that trust is an indispensable ingredient for business longevity.

22% more user profiles

## Reviews equal revenue

To measure Trustpilot’s impact on Facebook and Instagram ads, ASAP conducted an A/B test. For two weeks, two different ad variations were shown to a targeted audience: one that contained the Trustpilot logo and TrustScore, and the same ad without any Trustpilot reference.

The results are impressive: the Trustpilot version generated 140% more applicants, 8% more clicks, and 7% lower cost per click than the version without social proof! This shows that displaying a universal symbol of trust in your ads can not only increase your traffic and build trust earlier on in the funnel, but can also have a strong influence on decision-making behaviour.


a/b test results

## Google for jobs

Nearly three-quarters (73%) of all job searches start on Google, [according to CareerBuilder](https://www.sonovate.com/blog/recruiters-maximise-google-for-jobs/#:~:text=Nearly%20three%20quarters%20(73%25),Jobs%20will%20only%20enhance%20this.), and the search engine's role will only get more important as Google Jobs grows in popularity. 

By collecting Trustpilot reviews, ASAP ensures greater visibility on Google. If a company has received over 100 verified reviews from one country over the last 12 months, and has an average rating of at least 3.5/5 stars, [it qualifies for Google Seller ratings](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/reviews/get-seen-in-search/why-wont-my-google-seller-ratings-show-up-and-4-other-gsr-questions) — the gold stars in text ads and Shopping ads in Google Search. As ASAP more than meets these criteria, these conversion-boosting stars are visible in all of the agency’s paid ads in Google.

ASAP's reputation is also highly visible in Google’s organic search results, as its Trustpilot business profile and score appear on Google’s first page when searching for 'asap' or 'asap.be'. The search terms 'asap reviews', 'asap scores’ and 'asap experiences’ even rank the business profile page at the very top of the list in Google.

## Tag with trust

Trustpilot reviews are managed and monitored company-wide with the aim of optimising internal processes and gaining new insights. ASAP does this by tagging its reviews based on relevant topics. This allows ASAP to sort, categorise and analyse its reviews in a targeted and organised way. The possibilities of tagging are endless and reviews can be tagged both manually and automatically:

- __Industry__: Since ASAP is active in many areas, it tags its reviews by industry. This way, it can gather valuable insights and identify needs and opportunities within a specific market. Tagged reviews are also displayed on relevant landing pages. For example, on the page “Jobs for Drivers” you will only see reviews that contain the tag “driver”.
- __Language__: ASAP also tags reviews by language, so that both the French-speaking visitors from Wallonia, and the Dutch-speaking Belgians from Flanders, get to see reviews in their first language.
- __Location__: By tagging reviews by location, ASAP is able to monitor performance and tighten processes on an office-by-office basis.

With Trustpilot, KLEIR. has found a way to leverage its strong customer satisfaction, and take its social campaigns and conversion rate to the next level. 

With nearly 10,000 Instagram followers, over 700 [Trustpilot reviews](https://nl.trustpilot.com/review/kleirantwerp.be) and a TrustScore of 4.8/5, it’s safe to say that [KLEIR.](https://www.kleirantwerp.be/) has a great reputation among its customers.

## Top-notch trust funnel

Modesty is a virtue —  but it doesn’t sell well. Sometimes you just need the world to know how good you are. If you've worked hard to build a trusted brand, putting authentic reviews front and centre can give you an edge over your competitors. So if you truly put your customers at the core of your business, it makes sense to showcase their experiences.

KLEIR. benefits from its good reputation on a daily basis. From social media ads to their shopping cart area, with its solid review strategy and top-notch trust funnel, it turns clicks into customers like few others. This is how they do it:

- KLEIR. showcases reviews on its [homepage](https://www.kleirantwerp.be/). Nothing beats trust at first sight.
- Its TrustScore is visible on [all product pages](https://www.kleirantwerp.be/collections/mannen/products/hoodie-doediskalm-zwart-unisex). It is strategically positioned below the CTA button, so visitors can click on ‘Add to cart’ with confidence.
- KLEIR.'s [shopping cart page](https://www.kleirantwerp.be/cart) ensures trust. Since reassurance is key for conversion, the reviews shown here can truly make the difference between a shopping cart abandoner, and a paying customer.
- Its [brand story](https://www.kleirantwerp.be/pages/wie-zijn-wij) is reinforced with social proof. The ‘About Us’ page is one of the most important pages of a website and is often visited by consumers that are interested in what you offer, but are not convinced they trust you enough to convert just yet. Since KLEIR.’s ‘About Us’ page shows its customers' approval, it is more likely to convert these visitors too.

## Social ads that pack a punch

Nowadays, no one questions the fact that social proof has a major impact on buying decisions. Nevertheless, it's wonderful that KLEIR. has conducted an extensive test that once again confirms the power and influence of Trustpilot reviews. Here’s an overview of what the test consisted of:

- Ads on Facebook and Instagram for four weeks
- Three ad variations: v1 with Trustpilot stars and logo, v2 with Trustpilot stars and v3 without any mention of Trustpilot
- Requirement: unique reach of at least 10,000 people


KLEIR facebook ad

## In ROAS we trust

Looking at the ROAS (return on ad spend) of these three ads, the influence of Trustpilot is crystal clear: the two Trustpilot ads generated an average revenue of €61,73. This means that KLEIR. earned €61,73 for every euro it spent on advertising — and for v2 alone, the revenue was a whopping €86!

Variation 3, the exact same ad but without any reference to Trustpilot, didn’t even come close. This ad had a ROAS of a mere €18.83.


ROAS KLEIR

## A KLEIR. winner

Click-wise, the two Trustpilot ads also won by a landslide. Variation 1 and 2 combined had a click-through rate of 0.57%, whilst the CTR of the ad without any mention of Trustpilot was only 0.19%.

In other words, people were three times more likely to click on one of the Trustpilot ads. Ad 1, showing both the Trustpilot logo and stars, had the highest click-through rate at 0.59%.

## Not all reviews are created equal

Establishing a trust funnel and including reviews in your ad campaigns can help you reduce shopping cart abandonment, convert more visitors into customers, and systematically grow customer trust. 

This will only work if you take the time to learn from your reviews and improve your way of doing things, of course. So how do you do that? By maximizing transparency, preserving your integrity, learning from your customers, delivering on your promises, and showing the world you’re one of the good ones. 

That’s why verified reviews are so valuable. These reviews are written following email invitations that are automatically sent after a purchase – which makes verified reviews the most trustworthy reviews out there. Consumers know that they’re written by real customers, rather than online bots, sneaky competitors, or people that were paid to leave a review.


Verified reviews are automatically marked as "Verified" on our platform

REVIEW EXAMPLE

## Gold stars shine bright

Verified reviews not only reassure customers, but also draw more attention to your ads and drive more traffic to your website. When you’ve received over 100 verified reviews from the same country within 12 months, with an average rating of at least 3.5/5 stars, you’re eligible for Google Seller Ratings.

Google Seller Ratings are the gold stars in text ads and Shopping ads in Google Search, and should be a must for every review-collecting company. Why? Well, according to Google, showing seller ratings can [boost your text ads’ CTR by up to 10%](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/reviews/get-seen-in-search/how-to-calculate-google-seller-ratings-effect-on-google-ads).

## Fake reviews are the enemy

Trustpilot goes to great lengths and invests heavily to ensure that the reviews on our platform will always be a reliable source of information, and that companies like KLEIR. can continue to benefit from their customer-centric approach and their online reputation.

Add People x Trustpilot case study

In this case study, we speak to Suraj Singh, Head of Partnerships & Communications at Add People, to better understand why the business chose Trustpilot to build consumer trust, and how they leverage their online reviews as part of their marketing strategy

With over 17 years of experience and 4000+ happy customers around the globe, Add People take their customers’ satisfaction very seriously. In the last five years, the business has collected almost 900 Trustpilot reviews and achieved an impressive [4.3/5 TrustScore](https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/addpeople.co.uk).  

In this case study, we speak to Suraj Singh, Head of Partnerships & Communications at Add People, to better understand why the business chose Trustpilot to build consumer trust, and how they leverage their online reviews as part of their marketing strategy.

## Why Add People joined Trustpilot

[Trust has become such an important tool](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/reviews/build-trusted-brand/the-importance-of-trust-in-uncertain-times) when it comes to boosting consumer confidence and building customer loyalty, especially in 2020. Developing good customer relationships online can be challenging, which is why reviews are crucial to any business looking to build credibility in these conditions.

That’s why Add People chose to use Trustpilot to ensure they build a valuable & trustworthy relationship with their customers, and show all potential ones that their brand is trustworthy, and that they care about their customers’ experiences.

Suraj explains:

“Trustpilot is the most recognised review platform anywhere. We have put focus on other review sites where our products are seen, but this is the one, it’s the tool that you see referenced in everyone’s TV adverts and billboards. Trustpilot is simply the go-to review site for building trust.
Add People are built to serve small businesses. There are 6 million small businesses in the UK, that account for 60% of the employment of the nation, and around half of turnover in the British private sector. They are the lifeblood of the economy.

But, they’re a diverse bunch… the term SME’s covers every company in the UK with less than 250 employees. And we don’t discriminate, we put as much effort into growing their business online whether they have 249 employees, or 1.

And that’s why trust is important to us. Not only do we straddle a diverse range of businesses, but we’re acutely aware of the difficulties small business owners face (many of us have owned our own small business to some extent).

And, if you’re putting your marketing budget - maybe that’s even a significant portion of your profits – in the hands of another business, you’d want to know you can trust them.

You’d want to see reviews and testimonials from other happy customers, you’d want to know you’re in a nice, safe pair of hands.”

## How the agency showcases its Trustpilot reviews

Trustpilot is Add People’s core tool for the measurement of customer satisfaction and the development of consumer trust. 

To showcase their reviews, the Add People team have implemented Trustpilot widgets throughout the customer journey. 

Here’s how the company showcases its Trustpilot score on the website’s homepage:

Their Trustpilot branding is also included in many of their marketing materials, in digital campaigns, and on social media platforms too.

But that’s not all. Here are more examples of where Add People showcase Trustpilot reviews:

It’s safe to say Add People really take pride in maintaining their trust levels online. They even have an internal leader board in their office, to ensure that everyone is pulling towards keeping that good review score!

“We’re still breaking records for sales, and have posted some of the highest figures in the 5 years since we started working with Trustpilot. Because of the global pandemic – small businesses need as much support as ever and one way to survive (or thrive) in the current situation is through digital marketing,” explains Suraj.

As Adam Shearer, Head of Sales at Add People, says:

“Trustpilot reviews are the single biggest factor in our sales process. You can have the best sales people in the world, but if the person on the other end of the line can’t trust you, you’ve got no chance. Our reputation online allows us to pick up that phone in the confidence that we can walk-the-walk, and we’ve got the customer testimonials to back it up.”

Every employee takes Add People’s review strategy very seriously, and the company is even looking at introducing reviews as a KPI for some of their frontline teams.

## Moving forward...

“It’s a trying time for all businesses – but almost overwhelmingly – our reviews containing reference to Covid have been positive! As stressed previously, our customers’ trust is extremely important to us, and we’ve done everything we can to help businesses during the pandemic, whether that has been helping them to grow, or helping with payment plans and other solutions when they’ve been forced to pause their business during lockdown. The challenge going forward will be to ensure that our approach and reputation continue to be upheld if the nation is put into more temporary lockdowns within certain industries. Clearly, utilising Trustpilot and the tools it offers is going to help us maintain this service level, and this trust, into the future.”


Customer testimonial

Add People’s vision is largely customer-focused, and continues to be strengthened by the time and effort they spend on building trusted relationships with both new and existing customers.

Low Cost Glasses Logo

Low cost glasses Trustpilot case study

To better understand why Low Cost Glasses chose the Trustpilot platform for their new review strategy, we spoke with Alexandra Butcher, Head of Marketing at LCG.

LCG currently offers a broad range of products online, as well as fast service and great customer experience.

To better understand why their team chose the Trustpilot platform for their new review strategy, we spoke with Alexandra Butcher, Head of Marketing at LCG.

## Why Low Cost Glasses chose Trustpilot reviews

As both a service and an eCommerce business, winning over customer trust has been the company’s priority since Day 1.

“We always knew that transparent customer communication was integral to business success, and Trustpilot has only confirmed that a thousand times over. People buy from people so having all your happy customers shouting about you in one place is the best ‘word of mouth’ marketing you could ever ask for,” explains Alexandra.

The team at LCG first signed up for a free Trustpilot account, and after a few months of usage, decided it was time to join for good.


Head of Marketing at Low Cost Glasses

The brand now has over 4,000 reviews and a solid 4.6/5 star ‘Excellent’ rating that is consistently monitored by the team at LCG. 

## How Low Cost Glasses uses Trustpilot to learn from customers

With regard to the platform itself, Low Cost Glasses is very active, and both their CEO and Head of Customer Services check the platform daily, monitoring feedback and fixing issues. The Low Cost Glasses team also likes to ensure that they have responded to every single person who has taken the time to share their experience.


LCG review 1

“It has become an extension of our customer service offering. We’re always working on improving our whole customer journey so the (sometimes very!) honest opinions we receive have proved invaluable in developing the experience as a whole. We’re a lean team so we can react, implement changes or action requests very quickly,” says Alexandra.

The Customer Services and Marketing teams also use the platform to interact with customers, respond to feedback and collect valuable consumer insights, so it really is a full team effort!  

Since Low Cost Glasses have started using customer feedback to improve customer service and continuously innovate, they have achieved:

- A 99% engagement with customers giving a 2* rating or below
- A 52% conversion rate from 1 and 2-star to 4 and 5-star reviews through successful engagement 
- A reply rate of 97% of all customer reviews within a 24-hour window.

## Showcasing reviews throughout the buying journey

When it comes to showcasing the Trustpilot seal of approval and the star branding, well, Low Cost Glasses have quite simply put it everywhere! 

When Low Cost Glasses became official Trustpilot customers, the team refreshed all their digital assets to include their star rating, so it could feature across their Google and Bing PPC campaigns, paid social activity, delivery inserts, packaging, emails and press activity. We even pulled the existing TV ad to include the Trustpilot rating and had to go through clearance and station distribution again at extra expense.

The team also shares reviews across social channels, and implemented a live feed of their latest reviews scrolling across the website’s homepage. This just shows how much value the business attributes to Trustpilot and the power of reviews when it comes to building customer trust.

It’s safe to say that the team at Low Cost Glasses are very proud of their 4.6 stars.

Since Low Cost Glasses started collecting and showcasing Trustpilot reviews at every touchpoint of the customer journey, they have seen:

- An outstanding 89% increase in revenue
- A 30% increase in average order value
- A 60% increase in all web traffic
- A 2% increase in conversions 
- Traffic from their business profile on Trustpilot converts at 3.8%
- A 20% customer return rate (which is amazing when you think about how often people normally have eye tests and buy glasses!)

## How Trustpilot helped Low Cost Glasses overcome their challenges

As a very young business with no established customer base, earning trust was absolutely paramount to the company’s success. In the beginning, there were three main barriers to purchase that Trustpilot helped Low Cost Glasses overcome:

1. Competitor customers worried about the quality of their products, due to the low prices
2. People disbelieving they were a legitimate business, because of how low their prices are
3. First time buyers, nervous about purchasing glasses online.

Having a very active Trustpilot page helped them alleviate all of the above, as people could immediately see that existing customers were having great experiences whilst  saving money. 

Choosing to respond to every single review definitely benefited them too. It helped people realise that their products are real, that they aren’t a scam, and that they strive to deliver great customer service and outstanding experiences. 

The three barriers to purchasing outlined above still apply, as the business is still very new to the market in the grand scheme of things. Reaching new audiences of glasses wearers and winning over their trust and custom is Low Cost Glasses’ daily bread and butter, and one that is supported significantly by Trustpilot. 

The online glasses market is a very competitive sector, so they’re always working to improve their service, platform and product to stay one step ahead of the game.

registerit logo

register.it trustpilot case study

To better understand how to leverage negative reviews to build trust and improve customer service, we spoke with Trustpilot customer Register.it. 

The company is part of the leading international group REGISTER, which, with over 2.5 million registered domains, helps more than 900,000 professionals and SMEs all over Europe in creating, promoting and protecting online identity.

Registerit trustpilot homepage

Customers are at the core of the business, according to Register.it. With 88% of support emails answered within the first 4 hours, 94% of chats managed without waiting times and in real time, and over 130,000 calls received every year, Register.it aims to constantly continue to improve their customer service. 

## How negative reviews can improve customer service

When a negative review is left on the business’s Trustpilot profile page, Register.it reacts immediately, through a process that involves several teams across different departments, to understand what went wrong, and ultimately, win the customer’s satisfaction and trust back. 

[A study carried out by Trustpilot](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/guides-reports/learn-from-customers/bad-reviews-why-people-write-them-and-what-they-expect) on a sample of over 1,000 European and North American consumers found that negative reviews represent an important opportunity for businesses to show that they care about their customers’ satisfaction.

According to the data emerged from the study, 68% of consumers trust a company more when it has a mix of positive and negative reviews, whereas one in three expects to receive an answer to their negative review. Specifically, 88% of consumers expect that, after having left a negative review, the company will contact them to quickly solve the issue flagged. 

## How Register.it handles negative reviews

This is exactly the strategy that is adopted by Register.it. When a negative review is left, the Marketing team intervenes first, verifying the specifics of the customer and the product bought. Afterwards, together with the Sales and Support team, all the touchpoints between the customer and the company are reviewed. If the issue flagged is a technical one, the second-level Support team gets involved. The goal is to react as soon as possible, solving the customer’s problem and gaining back their trust. 

That’s why, when Giuseppe left the following review (in italian), Register.it immediately understood that a quick action was needed. 

“The management of Register has changed. They're only kind when you purchase a product from them, and are very rude to customers afterwards. I have therefore mentioned my bad interaction with them to several of my friends, acquaintances and colleagues. My license will stay unused given that, after having communicated my issues to them, they just got back to me with an email containing instructions (INSTRUCTIONS WHICH DO NOT WORK!!). One of their agents even told me that they do not manage licenses anymore, and it isn't their fault if the process doesn’t work (so does that mean they only sell licenses? What’s the point in spending money for the assistance needed when installing a license, if they aren’t able to help you out?!) IT’S ABSURD!! I won’t even wait for the expiration, I will just take away my domains, my PEC, etc. And instead, I will purchase from another provider, a cheaper and more professional one (as until some time ago, Register was). I am sure that Register’s management isn’t even aware that their call center agents answer customers in the following way: “THAT’S WHAT WE NOW DO, SO IF YOU WANT ASSISTANCE, YOU MUST PAY FOR IT!!!”


Register.it negative review

At first, technical support agent Alberto got involved to find a solution to the technical issues flagged by Giuseppe. Then, Sofia, one of their customer support agents, jumped in to follow the customer step by step in the implementation of the solutions proposed. 

Marketing Manager at Register.it

As an outcome, the trust and satisfaction of the customer were regained, and the customer changed its originally negative review to a positive one.

“Dear old REGISTER, I have finally found my ‘REGISTER’ again: the one that helps me with my issues, and does it with extreme professionalism and speed. It’s the provider I suggested to many friends, colleagues and clients, the one that, thanks to professionals who answer you on the phone, suggests and searches for the solution with you. A special thanks for having put back in place the relationship between me and the company that seemed to be doomed to end after many years, and for the excellent skills and professionalism with which they helped me solve a problem I had been having for weeks. The result? I will buy another domain  immediately, and I will stay loyal to my dear old REGISTER! Have a good day”


Register.it positive review

## Turning unsatisfied customers into happy ones

Thanks to this approach, Register.it was able to make the customer change his review. They won his trust back and can guarantee future purchases this way. And that’s not all… by following this procedure every time someone leaves a negative review, 80% of Register.it unsatisfied customers have changed their negative reviews into positive ones. 

It’s evident how online reviews impact the way consumers perceive a brand. An immediate  response is crucial to help improve your customers’ experience, increase your chances of gaining repeat customers, or even become brand ambassadors. The quality of the customer service offered is what makes the difference between you and your competitors.

Hermes case study Trustpilot

Dans cette étude de cas, Gemma Dunning, responsable de l'expérience client chez Hermes, nous explique pourquoi l'entreprise a choisi Trustpilot pour renforcer la confiance des consommateurs

Hermes propose une gamme d'options de livraison flexibles et abordables. L’entreprise a pour mission d'être le transporteur numéro 1 au Royaume-Uni.

Hermes exploite un réseau de plus de 15 000 coursiers et de plus de 4 500 ParcelShops au sein du Royaume-Uni. Cette approche multicanal offre une expérience de livraison pratique et facile, et garantit que plus de 95 % des colis sont livrés du premier coup.

Hermes travaille également avec un large éventail de détaillants de premier plan. Avec plus de [1,3 million d'avis](https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.myhermes.co.uk), un excellent TrustScore de 4,3/5 et plus de 83 % d'avis 4 ou 5 étoiles, on peut dire qu’Hermes fait de la satisfaction clients l’une de ses priorités absolues.

Dans cette étude de cas, Gemma Dunning, responsable de l'expérience client chez Hermes, nous explique pourquoi l'entreprise a choisi Trustpilot pour renforcer la confiance des consommateurs, et comment l'équipe exploite les avis en ligne dans le cadre de sa stratégie marketing.

## Pourquoi Hermes a rejoint Trustpilot
« Nous avons choisi Trustpilot comme partenaire d'avis en 2014. Nous voulions développer la réputation de notre marque et améliorer notre stratégie pour être encore plus à l’écoute de nos clients et mieux adapter nos services à leurs besoins. Nous pouvons également montrer à nos clients potentiels la qualité du service proposé par notre marque, ainsi que la validation par des tiers », explique Gemma.

« Alors que nous affinions notre stratégie d'avis, Trustpilot a toujours été là pour nous aider à atteindre nos objectifs et rester proactifs envers nos clients. Nous avons fait entendre leur voix sur nos canaux pour leur permettre de raconter notre histoire. »

## Comment Hermes utilise le feedback de ses clients pour s'améliorer et innover

Cette année a été une année charnière pour Hermes. Avec la pandémie de COVID-19, l'entreprise a enregistré un record dans la livraison de colis : ses employés ont continué à livrer dans tout le pays. L'entreprise a également dépassé des volumes qu'elle n'avait connus que pendant le boom de Noël et a atteint ses objectifs de croissance sur 5 ans en seulement cinq mois, tout en continuant à apprendre de chaque avis reçu pendant cette période.

Depuis qu'elle a rejoint Trustpilot en 2014, Hermes a collecté un total impressionnant de 1,2 million d'avis. En 2018, Hermes a élargi le champ d’action de Trustpilot, entraînant une augmentation significative du nombre d’avis.
Pour mieux comprendre les besoins et désirs de son public, Hermes produit un rapport hebdomadaire qui résume le feedback de ses clients, et qui est partagé dans toute l'entreprise - y compris les chefs de département et les membres du comité Customer Experience.

« Nos notes et avis Trustpilot sont des paramètres essentiels de notre service client pour le conseil d'administration et les chefs de service, et c'est une excellente indication pour notre entreprise qui aide les employés à se faire une idée de la satisfaction client dans l'ensemble du secteur. Beaucoup de nos départements exploitent les informations que nous collectons sur nos clients. Au sein de l'entreprise, tout le monde s'intéresse à la performance de nos avis. Les informations sont toujours utilisées afin de proposer des conseils à nos chefs de service et de les orienter dans la bonne direction », explique Gemma.

Hermes utilise l'outil [Review Insights de Trustpilot](https://uk.business.trustpilot.com/reviews/learn-from-customers/introducing-trustpilots-new-machine-learning-tool-review-insights) pour extraire les tendances et les sentiments positifs et négatifs de ses avis. Cela lui permet également d'avoir un aperçu de son taux de réponse, de ses performances et de son TrustScore.

Gemma poursuit :

« Chaque semaine, nous nous concentrons sur un thème précis et mettons en lumière les histoires et les expériences de nos clients qui s’y rattachent. Ces données exploitables nous permettent de creuser des domaines spécifiques pour comprendre ce qui fonctionne bien et ce qu’il nous reste à améliorer. »

Grâce à l'outil Review Insights, Hermes peut identifier des modèles grâce auxquels l'équipe va approfondir les expériences racontées par les clients. Sur la base des commentaires reçus, Hermes s’est fixé un certain nombre d’objectifs le long du parcours client, notamment des mises à jour de sa page de contact. L'équipe s'efforce en permanence d'améliorer ses services et de redoubler d’efforts pour ses clients. Depuis la mise en place de ces changements, Hermes a observé une amélioration du sentiment des clients.

D'autres équipes Hermes aiment aussi utiliser les témoignages clients pour les aider dans leurs projets :

« Concernant l'application Hermes, le feedback clients a été crucial pour notre équipe Tech. Depuis que nous sommes en mesure d'obtenir des informations spécifiques sur l'application, nous avons identifié de nouveaux aspects de l'interface utilisateur, et cela nous permet de mieux comprendre ce que nos clients pensent et ressentent. Notre application a récemment remporté le prix “App of the Year”, et pour appuyer notre candidature, nous avons utilisé nos avis Trustpilot pour montrer à quel point l'application est appréciée et utile pour nos utilisateurs. »

## Comment Hermes affiche le feedback des ses clients

Hermes est fière de présenter ses notes et avis Trustpilot sur l'ensemble de ses canaux marketing, notamment ses plateformes de réseaux sociaux, ses campagnes publicitaires numériques et le matériel relationnel (en maintenant une relation commerciale avec les clients sur une longue période de temps).

Hermes Trustpilot reviews example

L'entreprise a constaté que les campagnes publicitaires qui incluaient du contenu Trustpilot engendraient un CPC moyen plus faible et une baisse significative de son CPA.

Hermes utilise également le générateur d’images de Trustpilot pour créer des messages organiques sur les réseaux sociaux et afficher une sélection d’avis clients.

Mais ce n'est pas tout. Hermes développe également sa stratégie pour intégrer les notes et avis Trustpilot sur d'autres canaux marketing, comme la télévision, afin d’élargir leur portée auprès des clients.

Hermes aime aussi célébrer ses grands moments avec Trustpilot, comme le seuil du million d'avis atteints ou les performances de son TrustScore, en les partageant sur les réseaux sociaux.

## Le mot de la fin…
« Nous voulons être une entreprise ouverte, transparente et responsable, en quête de feedback tout au long du parcours client, y compris via des invitations adressées à tous nos clients, car nous tenons à promouvoir notre partenariat avec Trustpilot, une plateforme fiable et respectée », explique Gemma.

« En utilisant les TrustBoxs sur les pages de notre site web, nous montrons que nous sommes un leader de la livraison de colis. Nous sommes fiers de partager notre badge « Excellent », non seulement pour gagner la confiance de nos clients, mais aussi pour les encourager à continuer à partager leurs avis authentiques, la transparence étant une valeur essentielle à nos yeux.

L’affichage de nos avis tout au long de notre parcours client est également un moyen pour nous de diriger nos clients et prospects vers notre page de profil d'entreprise Trustpilot, afin qu'ils puissent lire tous nos avis, et l'utiliser comme canal officiel pour partager leurs réflexions. »
