What is a paid testimonial?

The term “testimonial” most commonly applies to the sales-pitches attributed to ordinary citizens, whereas the word “endorsement” usually applies to pitches by celebrities.
How long should a video testimonial be?
Like most videos in general, your testimonial video should include a definitive intro and outro. I’ve seen testimonial videos range from 30 seconds to several minutes, but I personally believe you can get across everything you need in 45-60 seconds. The threshold of attention is limited, much like FAQ videos.
How much should I pay for a testimonial?
depending on the details of your project, customer testimonial services usually cost $3,500-$15,000. If your project requires location rental, wardrobe or makeup stylists, catering, long-distance accommodations, or specialized technicians, it may cost more.
Can I paraphrase a testimonial?
Testimonials and endorsements are often paraphrased, and this practice isn’t necessarily bad. Brevity is important in advertising, and paraphrasing a long endorsement is acceptable so long as you don’t change the intended meaning.

What is a good testimonial?
The more information in a testimonial, the more credible it is. Testimonials should include the person’s name, title, company and picture. The least credible testimonials include just the person’s initials. Faces will make your testimonials more personal, more real.
