Review Request Automation (SMS + Email) That Brings In More Google Reviews, On Repeat

You do great work. The problem is staying consistent with reviews when you’re running job to job. We build a simple “set it and forget it” review request automation system that automatically follows up with customers after each job, so you earn steady Google reviews without chasing people down.

What Is Review Request Automation?

Review request automation is a follow-up system that sends a friendly customized text and/or email to your customers after a completed job, making it easy for them to leave a Google review in one tap. Instead of relying on memory or awkward asks, your review requests go out consistently, even when you’re slammed.

Why Most Service Businesses Don’t Get Reviews (Even With Great Work)

Most reviews don’t get missed because you didn’t earn them,
they get missed because you got busy.

  • The day ends and you forget to ask

  • You remember later… and it feels awkward

  • Weeks go by with no new reviews

  • Prospects see “old” reviews and hesitate

A consistent review request system fixes that.

What We Set Up For You

We build a complete automated review request workflow that fits how service businesses actually operate:

  • SMS review requests (fastest response rates)

  • Email review requests (great backup + professionalism)

  • Smart timing (send after the job, not weeks later)

  • Gentle reminder (optional, done right—not spammy)

  • One-tap Google review link (super easy for customers)

  • Simple customer intake so every job triggers a request

  • Tracking + reporting so you know what’s working

We keep it clean and professional, no gimmicks, no weird language, just a system that gets results.

Why This Helps Your Google Visibility

Google doesn’t just care that you have reviews, it cares that you’re active and customers consistently choose you. A steady flow of recent reviews supports:

  • Higher trust (more calls, less price shopping)

  • Stronger Google Maps presence

  • More conversions from people comparing options

This is one of the simplest systems you can install to improve both trust and visibility.
