Frequently Asked Questions
How do consultants ask for testimonials from enterprise clients?
During the final engagement review, ask: 'Would you be willing to share a brief recommendation we could feature? Even a few sentences about the engagement experience would be incredibly valuable.' Most senior leaders are happy to help.
Should consulting testimonials include company names?
Always ask, but respect NDAs and confidentiality. Even 'VP at a Fortune 500 healthcare company' carries weight. For permitted logos, display them prominently on your homepage and proposals.
How do consulting firms use testimonials in proposals?
Include 2-3 relevant testimonials that match the prospect's industry and challenge. Place them alongside your methodology section. Video testimonials embedded in digital proposals are especially impactful.
