When to Ask for a Testimonial

Is it reasonable to ask after a free consultation where you provided a boatload of value?
Seems reasonable to me, but its been like pulling teeth to get them. They always seem extremely impressed and appreciative but getting a testimonial has been tough. Never had that problem in retail.
I'm wondering if its because business people (especially of bigger companies) are leery of having their name associated with someone until they're very sure they can trust you.
But all I'm asking for is the truth..."I had a consultation with Paul and got a lot of great ideas on how we can grow our business. If you get the chance I think you should talk to him".
If I could get these car dealers to give me a testimonial, it would be huge! With the first one I tried to make it an upfront contract....I'll wave my consulting fee if you'll agree to give me a testimonial if you feel you got a lot of value. He avoided it.
The next one I asked after the consultation was over. He said lets have another meeting, get me a proposal and then we'll go from there.
Any thoughts? Thanks.
