# Social proof & reviews

> Add reviews, testimonials, and trust elements to your store

Elixir includes multiple review and testimonial sections — each designed for a different use case. No review apps needed for the display (you'll still need an app or manual entry for collecting reviews).

## Which section should I use?

| Section                       | Best for                                                                                                            |
| ----------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Customer Reviews**          | Standard review grid. Good for product and homepage.                                                                |
| **Customer Reviews Carousel** | Scrollable review slider. Great when you have many reviews and want to save vertical space.                         |
| **Amazon Styled Reviews**     | Reviews that look like Amazon. Builds familiarity and trust — especially for supplement, health, and beauty niches. |
| **Facebook Reviews**          | Reviews styled like Facebook posts. Good for stores whose audience is Facebook-heavy.                               |
| **Testimonials**              | Quote-style testimonial cards with photos. Best for brand/lifestyle stores.                                         |
| **Video Testimonials**        | Video reviews. Most persuasive format — use if you have video content.                                              |

## Trust indicators

Beyond reviews, Elixir has sections specifically for building trust:

| Section                      | What it does                                                                            |
| ---------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **As Seen In Logos**         | Show logos of press, partners, or certifications (e.g. "As seen in Forbes, Glamour...") |
| **Statistics Grid / Column** | Display key numbers ("100,000+ customers", "4.8/5 rating", "90-day guarantee")          |
| **Satisfaction Guarantee**   | Dedicated guarantee section with icon and description                                   |
| **Before & After**           | Image comparison slider showing results                                                 |

## Product page trust blocks

On the product page itself, you can add these trust-building blocks:

| Block                 | Example                                     |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
| **Rating**            | "Excellent 4.7 out of 5 — Trustpilot"       |
| **Trust badges**      | "#1 Best Seller \| Doctor Recommended"      |
| **Delivery estimate** | "Order by today, receive by April 21"       |
| **Guarantee**         | "Good Sleep Or Your Money Back"             |
| **Short benefits**    | "90-Day Free Returns \| Ships From Florida" |

## Tips

* **Mix formats** — use a review section on the homepage and testimonial cards on the product page
* **Show numbers** — "12,000+ Reviews" is more convincing than just showing 3 reviews
* **Use real photos** — reviews with customer photos convert significantly better
* **Place strategically** — put social proof *after* your product pitch but *before* the FAQ
