The interview
What makes the Share One approach different from other testimonial methods?
Share One gets the best testimonials I've ever seen. Having a live human who cares and asks the right questions, it's a complete game changer. I love the fact that my high-end clients are getting what they need, which is someone who's listening.
What is the core mission of your company, 40 Years of Zen?
We do intense five-day brain upgrades for senior executives, for professional athletes, and for really successful people where they come in and go really deep. It's like a plant medicine ceremony, but without the plants. This is deep personal work and cognitive upgrades.
Why is it difficult to capture the value of your program without video?
It's really hard to explain what happens during a five-day brain upgrade that goes into these deep unconscious and subconscious levels and some very conscious things. I use Share One so people can explain how profound this experience is in changing their life so they can share that on social or with friends and family.
How does the interview process benefit the clients themselves?
The real important benefit is that I want people who come through that program to tell themselves how important this work was. Share One helps people capture what really happened in a testimonial for themselves as well as for other people. It's been a really powerful part of our integration process.
How does Share One fit into a high-end, 'white glove' service environment?
At 40 Years of Zen, everything is concierge. It's white glove, in a mansion with an executive chef. I asked them to talk with Share One at the end of their last day. If it's not professional, it leaves a bad taste for the whole investment. I have had no issues whatsoever; people feel heard and it actually helps them think about their experience.
What is the final impact of these testimonials on your brand?
It's not that hard to get testimonials by email, but when you have a live human who cares asking questions, it changes everything. When people see those testimonials, they can feel those testimonials. That's why Share One has made a big difference for me.
Frequently asked
Will an automated testimonial process upset high-end concierge clients?
Dave Asprey noted that because Share One uses a live human who cares and asks the right questions, it matches the 'white glove' environment of his mansion-based program. He reported having no issues with client impressions, stating the professional process leaves a positive final taste for the investment.
How does Share One compare to standard email testimonial requests?
Asprey states that while getting testimonials via email is not hard, it lacks the impact of a live human interaction. He believes that when a reporter asks questions, it changes everything because the resulting testimonials are something the audience can actually 'feel.'
Can video testimonials help with customer retention or experience?
Yes, Asprey uses Share One as part of the 'integration process' for 40 Years of Zen. It helps clients capture what really happened during their experience before the memory fades, reinforcing the importance of the work they did for themselves.
