Why this can grow a startup

Most review profiles stop at logos, badges, and a paragraph that sounds like every other paragraph in the category. That is not enough once the buyer wants to check the actual product. Screenshots help, but still images often flatten the workflow. G2's Reach guidance is more practical. Insider saw conversions lift after adding both screenshots and videos, because the page became closer to a working product surface than a static reputation page. The point is not to decorate the profile. The point is to reduce the distance between claim and proof.

Source-backed example

In G2's Reach 2024 profile workshop, Insider said it saw a 14% boost in conversions after adding both screenshots and videos to its G2 Profile.

When to use it

Use this when Marketplaces, Content, Conversion is relevant to product marketing, visual proof, B2B software and you can run a bounded test with a medium budget.

When not to use it

Do not use it as a substitute for customer evidence, a clear owner, or a measurable stop condition. Local platform rules and market behavior still need checking.

How to do it

  1. Choose one target segment and define the exact next action this tactic should prompt.
  2. Adapt the tactic to Marketplaces and Content, using evidence from G2 Learn Hub: How to Make the Most of Your G2 Profile as context—not as a promised result.
  3. Record a baseline for: Qualified search visitors who complete the intended next action. Set a guardrail that would make you pause the test.
  4. Run a narrow pilot and choose a test window that fits the normal decision or use cycle; do not scale before you have observed the full cycle.
  5. Compare the signal with its baseline. Scale only if the intended action improves without crossing the guardrail; otherwise revise one variable or stop and record what you learned.
