Google review strategy

A review strategy is a simple, consistent way to ask happy customers for reviews and to reply to the ones you get. Review count, recency and replies all affect how you show up locally.

Why it matters

Reviews are often the deciding factor when someone compares businesses in the map results. A steady flow of recent reviews tells customers and search engines that you’re active and trusted.

Signs you need this

  • You have fewer reviews than your competitors
  • Your most recent review is months old
  • Reviews go unanswered, especially the critical ones

What we do

  1. Make reviewing easy

    We set up a short review link and QR code you can share after a job or purchase.

  2. Fit it into your routine

    We suggest when and how to ask, by message, email or receipt, within the platforms’ rules.

  3. Reply well

    We draft replies for you to approve, especially for critical reviews.

How we check it worked

We track review count, average rating and response rate month by month.

Common questions

Can we offer discounts for reviews?

No. Rewarding reviews breaks Google’s policies. You can ask every customer, but not incentivise them.

Should we reply to every review?

Ideally, yes. Replies show you’re listening, and a calm reply to a critical review can reassure future customers.
