This is an efficient technique but it makes the content extremely non-exclusive and not dedicated to any specific user. On social media, user-generated content plays the role of setting a public image of trust but on emails, it can be used with a different approach.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fact that their content is being used on emails by a brand can make the users feel important.

A user gets a personal message with an email which can contribute a lot more to a business than you can think. With personalized emails, and user-generated content such as testimonials can be used to target the users\u2019 pain points.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Customized testimonials can do the work just right!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wear your research glasses and figure out your audience\u2019s pain points.

When you post about this community on social media, it creates FOMO (fear of missing out) amongst the other users.
