SaaS testimonial request email template

Use this structure when asking a paying customer for a short testimonial you can publish with consent. Keep it specific, low-friction, and easy to say yes to.

Initial testimonial request email

Subject: Quick question about your experience with us Hi [Name], thanks again for using [Product]. Would you be open to sharing 2-3 sentences about the outcome you got, what changed, or why you chose us? If you are happy with it, we may use the quote on our website with your name and company. No pressure if now is not a good time.

  • Ask for 2-3 sentences, not a polished case study.
  • Mention where the quote may appear before they reply.
  • Make it easy to decline or edit the quote.

Gentle follow-up

Subject: Re: Quick question about your experience with us Hi [Name], just bumping this once. If useful, one line on what [Product] helped you save, ship, or improve would be perfect. Totally okay if not.
