How it Works

Online reviews are an important part of your online business profile, however they used to be hard to acquire. People are busy and forgetful so emailing and calling a customer to ask that they leave a review may only get a few reviews. Review cards are a much more effective way of gaining real customer reviews by making it very easy for your customer to leave a review and giving them the card when they are the most likely to want to leave a review.

The Process

  • Choose a base template design
  • Provide your business details and any customization request in the customization box
  • Order the card and provide contact details
  • Await for an email with a design proof of your customized card.
  • Either approve the design proof or request revisions and await a new proof email
  • Await for the cards to arrive in the mail
  • Provide the customer with a card right after a job is complete and they are most likely to want to leave a review
  • The customer scans the QR Code or types in the short website address in a browser and is taken to right your chosen platforms review page or popup. *Please note that some platforms require the user to be logged into them to leave a review

Why Do You Need Reviews?

Online reviews are an important part of your online business profile and they used to be hard to acquire. People are busy and forgetful so emailing and calling a customer to ask that they leave a review may only get a few reviews. Review cards are a much more effective way of gaining real customer reviews by making it very easy for your customer to leave a review and giving them the card when they are the most likely to want to leave a review, but why does your business need reviews? Online reviews serve 2 big purposes: to build potential customer trust, and to help your online rankings in local business search engine results. Customers need to be able to trust that who they hire for the job is someone they can trust and not just that they will do the job right, but that the people they hire they can trust inside their home and trust that if anything goes wrong, they will make it right.

If you ever had a problem in your home, you will most likely have visited a search engine and typed "home services near me". This could have been for "landscapers", "plumbers" or even a "bakery" which resulted in a list of local businesses inside the search results. There are only about 3 local businesses in the search results page and about 10 on the page when you click "more places". Getting your ranking up in this list can help you land more jobs than your competition. Google has hinted at it's ranking factors and broken them down into 3 categories: Relevance, Distance, and Prominence. Under prominence you will find: "Google review count and review score factor into local search ranking". Getting more reviews than your competition should be a part of your local business marketing strategy and with Review Cards, it has never been easier!
