The interview

Why do you believe video is the most effective format for testimonials?

Videos are king and there's nothing that trumps a video. They outperform any other form of testimonial that you can get. Having people be able to express what it's done for them in a video format is much more personal than reading just a written testimonial on a website.

How do video testimonials help patients who are hesitant to start treatment?

A lot of times people are stuck and most of the people that come to see me have already been to multiple practitioners. They feel burnt and they've lost a bit of their trust in doctors. Being able to see a testimonial from an actual patient that has had a great experience is something that provides the type of social proof that sometimes people need to get them to take that very first scary step in the direction of their health.

What role do these stories play in the customer journey?

At the end of the day you might not always be able to quantify which touch point was it that convinced the person to come work with you, but we know that it takes multiple touch points. If they can see themselves in the story of the person who left the testimonial, that makes it easier for them to visualize that this could be them—that they could actually improve or even regain their health.

Where do you currently use the testimonials produced by Share One?

I use the testimonials on my website; I think that's really important as social proof. We've also used them in email campaigns to share with people and let them know the types of services that we provide, and we're always looking for new ways that we can refresh and reuse them.

What is the specific workflow like when working with Share One?

The great thing about Share One is that it takes all of the admin work that is just not fun off your plate. You basically just have to intro the patient to Share One and then they basically just take over from there. And the next thing you know, they've booked the interview and a couple of weeks later you have a video testimonial in your inbox to review and approve.

What would happen if you tried to manage this process yourself?

I think the process is super easy and I know that if I tried to do this myself, it would never get done.

Frequently asked

How much work does it take to manage video testimonial production?

Dr. Vincent Pedre notes that Share One removes all the 'not fun' admin work. The user only needs to introduce the patient to Share One, and the platform handles the booking, interviewing, and editing entirely.

Why are video testimonials better than written quotes for medical practices?

Dr. Pedre explains that patients often feel 'burnt' by previous practitioners and lose trust. Seeing a real patient express their experience in a personal video format helps new leads visualize their own recovery and provides the social proof needed to take a 'scary first step.'

Does video content help with Google search rankings?

Yes, Dr. Pedre highlights that Google prioritizes videos over other content in search results. He states that YouTube videos often occupy the top search spots, making video testimonials essential for modern business marketing.

Second one came out in 2023, It's The Gutsmart Protocol. and I've done hundreds of podcast interviews. I'm pretty well known in the space as a gut expert. As much as I just want to do the work that I do and not worry about having to promote or market myself, the truth is that, if you don't show people the potential of what it is that they can accomplish when they've been feeling miserable for months or oftentimes for years, when they come to see me, having people have been through my programs and have worked with me one-on-one, be able to express what it's done for them in a video format - which is much more personal than reading just a written testimonial on a website - is something that just provides the type of social proof that sometimes people need to get them to take that very first scary step in the direction of their health. Because a lot of times people are stuck and most of the people that come to see me have already been to multiple practitioners. They feel burnt, they've lost a bit of their trust in doctors and being able to see a testimonial from an actual patient that has had a great experience and to memorialize that through this interview process is just something that's essential for marketing nowadays. people People look at a lot of different things. nowadays.
