Asking for reviews the right way
Build a steady, honest review habit your team can actually keep.
By Meredythe Tecson. . 4 min read.
Reviews influence both search visibility and buyer confidence. The most reliable way to earn them is also the simplest: ask satisfied customers, at the right moment, every time.
A simple workflow
- Choose the moment: right after a job is completed and the customer is happy.
- Send a short message with a direct review link.
- Follow up once, a few days later, then stop.
- Respond to every review, positive or negative, briefly and specifically.
Stay within the rules
Do not offer discounts or gifts for reviews, do not ask only happy customers through a filter and never post reviews on behalf of others. These practices can lead to removed reviews or profile penalties.
