At Testimonial, we consistently launch new features to help you grow your business through testimonial marketing.

We are on a mission to build the best testimonial marketing toolkit on the market and help you achieve greater success.

With that mission in mind, we proudly announce our newest release: Testimonial’s Portfolio Page Builder.

What Is Testimonial’s Portfolio Page Builder?

Testimonial’s portfolio page builder is a simple but powerful drag-and-drop one-page builder that is available inside your Testimonial dashboard.

It allows you to create a good-looking business portfolio with all of the necessary elements to share your business's value with others in a few minutes without coding or designing anything.

Why Would I Need an Additional Website Builder?

Well, first of all, using our portfolio builder doesn’t mean you must drop or replace your current website builder.

Testimonial’s portfolio builder is free with your Testimonial subscription (Premium plans and above), and it can work as a great complement to and support your marketing efforts.

What makes it so special?

The power and beauty of Testimonial’s portfolio builder are in its simplicity.

I compare it to a digital business card.

There are websites, flyers, social profiles, ads, and many other mediums to promote your business.

Interestingly enough, in many cases, the short but well-crafted business card makes all of the difference.

You don’t want to tweak your website every few weeks to tailor it to a specific client or build a new landing page just to pitch your business to a few individuals.

That takes a lot of time and is more draining than people think.

Also, if you take that approach, you would need to add “landing page design” as an ongoing task to your schedule because the need for more updates and new designs will never end.

Believe me, you don’t want that.

More importantly, you don’t need to follow the difficult path now that this highly functional portfolio builder has been added to Testimonial.

💡

Your portfolio builder comes with multiple pre-design sections, buttons, and features.

Please keep reading, and I will help you learn how to set up one as well as show you how it can be useful for Testimonial users in specific industries and roles.

How to Create and Manage Your Testimonial Portfolio Builder

If you have a Testimonial Premium subscription or above, you need to visit your dashboard to access your Portfolio builder.

You can access your Testimonial dashboard by clicking the three-dot line within your space card and selecting the "Manage testimonials" option.

Once on the space dashboard, choose "Portfolio" under the "Pages" section in the left sidebar.

The link to your Portfolio page will appear there. If you copy and open the link, it will show you a version of your portfolio preloaded with a template.

I will show you how to customize the profile.

Note: Your portfolio page can also be hosted on your custom domain if you have set up one.

How to Customize Your Testimonial Portfolio Builder

The next step is customizing your portfolio builder.

To do so, please click the “Edit Portfolio Page” button.

That will take you to the editing page.

Currently, the builder supports three blocks: the About Me, Reviews, and CTA sections.

Let’s break down each of them.

The About Me Block

The About Me section is the introduction to your portfolio.

It works as a hook to your readers.

In this case, your readers are potential customers.

So, you want a strong, clear, and good-looking introduction section.

Our portfolio block is optimized with the necessary items for you to stand out immediately.

You can customize:

The image (add any image you want from a URL)

Name

Title or Headline

X URL

LinkedIn URL

You don’t need to worry about nailing down the intro section. Just fill in your details in the template, and you’ll be set up for success.

The Reviews Block

This is your social proof section.

This section is directly connected to your Testimonial account, so you can easily set up a new Wall of Love without leaving the portfolio builder.

Customize the title. It, by default, reads, “What people say.”

Click the “Select” button and follow the prompts to create the Wall of Love that will show in your portfolio. All of the functionalities of a regular Wall of Love are available in this widget.

The CTA Block

The portfolio builder is optimized for you to set up a call or have potential clients email you.

So, you have the option to set up your CTA in three different ways:

Direct potential customers to your Calendly so they can schedule a call

Direct potential customers to Cal.com so they can schedule a call

Ask potential customers to email you so you can work together

PS. You can customize the title for your section and add an email if you choose the calendar customization options.

Who Can Benefit From Testimonial’s Portfolio Builder?

The new portfolio builder feature is great for:

Agency owners and account managers

Freelancers (designers, writers, developers, and more)

Independent professionals (therapists, doctors, attorneys, and more)

Coaches and consultants of any kind

E-commerce professionals (owners and employees in commercial roles)

High-ticket information product creators

And anyone in marketing, sales, or business development, basically!

What is the common trait of all of the roles above?

📢

Every person mentioned above is selling something.

Services, products, partnerships, information…

It doesn’t matter what they are selling - it’s the same.

Their Testimonial portfolio can work for them as a business card on steroids because:

It’s optimized to include relevant information only

Includes the two most important marketing elements: social proof and a strong CTA

It can be set up in minutes without coding or design work

Integrates with Calendly, Cal.com, or your email address

It is being improved as you read this and will soon include new options, integrations, and features

You have a unique link to share, working with your own testimonial.to URL or using a custom domain

The reviews and testimonials shown on the portfolio come directly from your Wall of Love and can be set up, arranged, organized, and customized as needed, including segmented by tags or source

You can use the portfolio in your sales funnels, email sequences, and basically in any marketing effort where the CTA included is relevant to the objectives

It is included at no cost as part of your Testimonial premium subscription and above

So, what are you waiting for?
