Testimonials for Christian schools

Let the parents who already chose you tell the ones who are touring.

A touring family has read your mission page and is still unsure. A current parent describing the teacher who noticed their child settles more than a brochure does.

Right below is the text I would send a client, ready to copy.

A text you can send

The text I would send after a good job

Hi [their name], it's [your name]. Glad it all went well. Would you write a sentence or two about it for my website? If it helps, start with this: What made you choose this school? It takes a minute and needs no account: [your link]

Swap in your own names. The link comes from your dashboard.

How it works

1
Share one link
You get a single link. Send it by text or email to a client whose work went well.
2
They write it, in a minute
No account and no app to download. They rate you and write a couple of lines.
3
You approve what appears
Nothing is public until you say so. Approve the good ones and they appear on your website automatically.

When to ask

After the first parent-teacher conference, when a parent has just heard a teacher describe their child well. Get the parent's consent before posting anything that names a child; their own name can stay off too.

The single biggest reason Christian schools have no testimonials is that nobody asks while the work is still fresh, not that clients are unwilling.

Questions that get a real answer

“Please leave a review” produces “great service”, which persuades nobody. Ask something specific instead:

What made you choose this school?
What have you seen a teacher do for your child?
What would you tell a family on a tour?

Exalted gives you the link. Send the text at the moment above, not a week later.

What good looks like

An example of the kind of thing Christian schools collect with Exalted.

Example

We toured four schools. This was the only one where a teacher knew our son's name by the second visit.

Illustrative, not a real client. Every testimonial Exalted publishes is written by a real person and approved by the business owner.

Your reputation, as a ladder

Each approved testimonial moves you up a tier, so you have a reason to keep asking. Visitors see the tier and know how established you are.

Worth reading before you ask

More on the blog. If you ask for Google reviews too, the free Google review link generator and the review request templates need no account. If you want a client quote as a picture to post, I made a free testimonial image maker.
