Do they have 5,000 customers, or 6,000? Perhaps the number is somewhere in between?
Whatever the count, this website doesn't get the [social proof] credit it deserves because the data is static.
Honest Marketers make data-driven claims realistically by making them dynamic.
Dynamic content to consider
It's likely your home page, pricing, and direct response landing pages have some statistics:
- Number of customers
- Activity metric, e.g. photos uploaded
- Average review score
By all means, show off these metrics if you're proud of them.
But make them honest.

Real-time marketing metrics
A little bit of JavaScript can go a long way.
Marketing app Fomo implemented asynchronous requests to their server on a per page load basis to fetch customer review counts, active websites, and even the number of signups in a 24 hour period.

This Open API was made public, and now anyone can make API requests against it to discover KPIs on demand.
Customers deserve the truth
For innovators -- those among us pushing the limits of what's possible -- the least you can do is keep the market informed.
In addition to live metrics from your backend, consider adding a changelog, status page, and publicly available incident reports.
Whether your server went down or the latest physical product launch was recalled, make this information freely available to build trust with prospects.
