"facebook_open_graph_title": "Acme Co loves ButterCMS",
"seo_title": "Acme Co Customer Case Study",
"headline": "Acme Co saved 200% on Anvil costs with ButterCMS",
"testimonial": "<p>We've been able to make anvils faster than ever before! - <em>Chief Anvil Maker</em></p>\r\n<p><img src=\"https://cdn.buttercms.com/NiA3IIP3Ssurz5eNJ15a\" alt=\"\" caption=\"false\" width=\"249\" height=\"249\" /></p>",

}
