What review management covers

Review management is the routine of asking customers for reviews, watching what gets posted and answering it. Done by hand it gets skipped on busy weeks. LeadGen makes the ask a single click, or a scheduled step that runs without you.

  • Scheduled requestsOr let it go out automatically.
  • Direct link to the review formThe customer taps once and starts typing.
  • One dashboardReviews from more than one platform in one view.
  • Replies from your phoneAnswer reviews from the inbox in the mobile app.
  • Review widgetShow your reviews on your own website.
  • NotificationsKnow when a new review is posted.

How a review request goes out

  1. Finish the job

    The customer is already in your contact list.

  2. Send the request

    One click, or a scheduled message, sends a text with your review link.

  3. The customer posts

    The link opens the review form directly.

  4. You reply

    The new review shows in your dashboard, and you answer it from the inbox.

Do Google reviews help a contractor rank?

Google's own guidance says more reviews and positive ratings can improve a business's local ranking. It lists three things behind local results: relevance, distance and prominence. Reviews count toward prominence, and they're the part of it you can work on every week.

Google also says that replying to reviews shows you value customer feedback. That's why the reply box sits in the same inbox as your texts. A short thank-you on a good review and a calm, specific answer on a bad one both get read by the next person deciding who to call.

Rules worth keeping

When to ask for a review

  • Right after the jobWhile the result is in front of them.
  • After a thank-youA customer who just said thanks will usually say it in public too.
  • Once more, laterOne reminder a few days on is enough.

Review Management questions

What is review management software?
Review management software sends review requests to your customers, collects the reviews posted about your business in one dashboard and lets you reply to them. LeadGen does this by text message, with a link that opens the review form directly, and adds a widget for showing reviews on your own website.
How do I ask a customer for a review?
Ask soon after the job, by text, with a direct link. In LeadGen you can send the request with one click from the contact, or schedule it so it goes out on its own. The customer taps the link and writes the review on their phone.
Can I reply to reviews from my phone?
Replies can be written from the LeadGen mobile app. New reviews show up in your dashboard with a notification, and you answer from the same inbox you use for texting customers, so a review doesn't sit unanswered until you're back at a desk.
Is review management included in the Solo plan?
Review management is part of every LeadGen plan, including Solo at $59 a month. Review requests sent by text use your plan's SMS credits. The pricing page shows the credits and contact limits on each plan.
