TLDR

Standardize four blocks, logos, quote, snippet, clip. Write tight copy. Add sources. Caption videos. Use one clean layout per block. Name modules once and track them. Refresh monthly and keep only what lifts CTR and paid.

Why this matters

Random proof looks messy and slows pages. A tiny library gives you consistent design, faster rollout, and clearer tracking. Readers get the point in seconds.

The four blocks, kept simple

Logo row
3 to 5 approved marks, one line label. Swap for names and roles if permission is unclear.

Quote
One sentence, first name and role, date. No hype words. Link to the proof wall for depth.

Snippet
Three lines, before, action, after. Include timeframe and source, GA4, Stripe, CRM.

Clip
30 to 60 seconds, captions on, one line label with name, role, topic. Autoplay off.

Copy rules that read fast

• Quotes under 120 characters.
• Snippets use real numbers and a timeframe.
• Labels say what happened, not how you feel.
• Sources appear in line, not hidden in footnotes.

Layout rules that keep speed

• One block per decision area, hero, pricing, final CTA.
• No carousels. Use a second block later on the page if needed.
• Square thumbnails under 200 kB. Images in WebP.
• Single column on mobile, two or three on desktop.

Naming and tracking, one time setup

Give each block a stable id and type, for example hero_quotes_a, pricing_snippet_b, final_clip_c. Track views, clicks or plays, and completes for clips. Mark position as above the fold yes or no. Read changes weekly.

Where to use each block

• Hero, logo row or two short quotes next to the first CTA.
• Pricing, one matched snippet right under the math.
• Final nudge, one short clip before the last CTA.
• Feature sections, one micro quote at the end of the block.
• Blog and hub, a compact proof block after the intro and near the exit CTA.

Maintenance, light and regular

Replace items older than 180 days. Swap logos for names when permissions change. Redact screenshots. Remove on request within 72 hours. Log changes.

Examples you can paste

• Quote: “Setup took one afternoon, first leads the next day.”, Ana, Agency Owner, 2025-06-12
• Snippet: “8 demos per month, many no shows. Added calendar routing and a 7 day follow up. 17 demos in 30 days, CRM export.”
• Clip label: “Home services, first 30 days, 38 leads, GA4 plus CRM.”

Metrics to watch

• Proof view rate, target 70 percent on engaged sessions.
• LP CTR lift with hero proof, target plus 15 to 30 percent.
• Paid lift with pricing snippet and clip, target plus 10 to 20 percent.
• Staleness, keep under 20 percent of items older than 180 days.

Common mistakes

Too many blocks on one screen. Quotes without dates. Numbers with no source. Heavy video files. Unapproved logos.

Quick start

Pick one quote, one snippet, one clip. Place them in hero, pricing, and final CTA. Link to the proof wall. Set a reminder to review in 30 days.

FAQ

How many proof blocks should a page use
Use up to three, hero, pricing, and final CTA. More adds noise.

Can I reuse the same block across pages
Yes, but match context. Pricing pages want math plus a result. Feature pages want a micro quote tied to that feature.

What if I have no clip yet
Start with a quote and a snippet. Record one 60 second example and invite two customers next month.

How do I keep pages fast with video
Use compressed thumbnails, lazy load the player, captions on, and no autoplay.

Where do I show sources
Inside the snippet line or under the clip label, for example “GA4, last 30 days.”
