The four-star average that's quietly costing you bookings.
Reputation management is the ongoing work of generating new customer reviews, responding to existing ones, and monitoring what’s said about a business online. For local service businesses it directly affects whether someone calls you or the next result down.
When someone compares three businesses in their suburb, the review count and average rating are usually the only difference they can see before choosing.
Most businesses ask inconsistently — a text if someone remembers, never if they don’t. The fix isn’t a clever script, it’s a process that runs after every completed job, at the right moment, with a direct link that takes two taps.
A negative review with a calm, specific, non-defensive reply reads better to a future customer than no negative reviews at all. What damages a business is silence, or an argument. We draft the response; you approve it.
Any local service business where customers compare options before calling — trades, clinics, hospitality, professional services.
A friendly SMS or email goes out after each job, visit or paid invoice, triggered from software such as ServiceM8, Xero or Cliniko. One reminder, then we stop. Nobody is filtered out for being unhappy.
A QR code sign or card, an NFC tap card and a two-line script for staff.
A short link that opens your Google review box directly.
Google, Facebook and the sites that matter in your industry, with an alert within a business day of any new review.
Written in your voice. You approve any reply to a negative review before it's posted.
Acknowledge, take it offline and fix what can be fixed. Fake or policy-breaking reviews are reported to Google and followed up.
We never offer incentives, post fake or staff reviews, or hide genuine criticism. That keeps you in line with ACCC guidance and Google's policies. Clinics get Ahpra-safe settings: clinical testimonials are never reused in advertising.
Your best reviews shown on your website and social channels. For clinics, only comments about service, not outcomes.
Reviews earned, average rating, reply times, and what customers keep praising or complaining about.
You own: your review link, message templates and all review data.
Your rating, review count, unanswered reviews and three competitors.
Replies to every unanswered review from the last 12 months.
Templates approved, software trigger connected, QR and NFC cards ordered.
Staff briefed, and requests start going out.
Most businesses see new reviews in the first month, as soon as every customer is being asked.
Only if it breaches the platform's policies — fake, abusive, or not a real customer. Anyone promising to remove genuine negative reviews is either lying or doing something that'll get your listing penalised.
There's no magic number. What matters more is recency and consistency — a steady trickle reads as an active business; forty reviews all from 2022 reads as a business that stopped.
No. Incentivising reviews breaches Google's policies and risks your listing. Asking properly at the right moment works better anyway.
