How do I get more Google reviews?

Ask every customer, right after their visit or job, with a direct link that opens the review box in one tap. Ask everyone the same way, not just the people you think loved it, do it every time, and reply to every review you get.

Make it easy

  • Get your review link from your Google Business Profile
  • Send it by text or email right after the visit or job
  • Keep the ask to one sentence
  • Reply to every review, good or bad

What not to do

Don't buy reviews or offer something in exchange for a review. It breaks Google's rules and can get reviews removed.
