How to Use Social Proof to Sell More

A actor who uses an iPhone promotes an Android phone, would you trust this kind of celebrity endorsement? Or a common person who uses value service and talks positively about the service he used on social media. Would you trust the judgement of a common person? Well, this is what social proof is about. When common people share an opinion about your products on public platforms, it can actually improve your sales.
 
That’s a good one, while celebrity endorsement is usually faked, when ordinary people give a word about a particular product, it is more credible because the celebrities are mostly after the financial gain. Social proof is rather effective, it increases confidence and certainly drives sales up.
 
I tend to question the authenticity of big influencers, as they often don't seem very genuine. That's why I prefer small-time influencers who come across as more sincere or genuine. I usually take the time to read reviews from different websites and sources, and I also ask my friends or family for their opinions at times. In terms of your question, showing social proof can be effective in increasing sales, especially when case studies are incorporated.
