What is Social proof?

What is Social proof? "Social proof is a psychological phenomenon where people assume the actions of others in an attempt to reflect correct behavior for a given situation." According to Robert Cialdini, who studied the principle of social proof in-depth in his book, Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion, “we view a behavior as more correct in a given situation to the degree that we see others performing it”. We tend to believe that those close to us (experts, famous individuals, friends, etc.) know more about what is happening and what has to be done in situations where we are unsure of what to do. Also, we frequently judge others based on our overall perception of them, sometimes known as the "halo effect" (named by psychologist Edward Thorndike). For instance: Because professionals are likely more knowledgeable than us in their field, we tend to think that anything they utilize is fantastic. Because we desire to look like celebrities, we purchase their things. We believe user reviews because, unlike us, they have actually used the product or service.
Why is Social proof important?

Social proof can be used to boost conversions by demonstrating to customers how well-liked and popular a product or service is, as individuals are more likely to buy something that others are already buying or talking about (the bandwagon effect). Let's use a dental office as an example. You are torn between two businesses that have received positive feedback from a variety of sources. Dentist A and Dentist B. You google Dentist A. It has some 5-star reviews and a plain basic website not matching today's style. Due to the site's meager content and lack of eye-catching visuals, you only give it a quick 30-second glance. You then search for dentist B. Even before you click on the website link in Google, you can see three featured pieces from the NY Weekly, CEO weekly, and US Insider. Dentist B has a similar amount of 5-star reviews, but his website is more upscale and has eye-catching imagery, engaging material, and a prominent FEATURED IN New York Weekly, CEO Weekly, and US Insider. Having articles come up when someone googles your business is unconsciously creating social proof with your customers. "It must be nice if their business is mentioned in prominent publications.." "Wow, they must be a wonderful firm because they were mentioned in some news stories" It's always a challenge to find ways to differentiate yourself from the competition that's where we come in.
