Скачать или смотреть How Amazon Uses Social Proof to Drive Sales | Marketing Decode 03

On Amazon, what do you notice first when you open a product page?
Not the price. Not the features. The reviews and ratings.

That is not accidental.

Amazon does not just sell products.
It sells reassurance.

Before you even read the description, Amazon shows how many people bought the product, how many rated it, and what they said. This shifts the decision from logic to safety.

When thousands of people approve something, the brain assumes the risk is lower. You stop asking, “Is this good?” and start thinking, “So many people bought it, it should be fine.”

Amazon understands one thing clearly.
Trust converts faster than persuasion.

Instead of convincing customers, Amazon shows that others already trust the product. That is why even average products sell when social proof is strong.

In this video, you will learn:
• How social proof influences buying decisions
• Why reviews matter more than features
• The psychology behind ratings and reassurance
• When social proof works and when it fails
• What businesses can learn from Amazon

Social proof works best when it is visible and honest.
Not hidden.
Not exaggerated.
Not fake.

If you were running Amazon, would you hide reviews or let trust drive sales?
