Approaching Directly

Asking for a review is the easiest way to get one. Let customers know that you would appreciate a review on your website or a popular review site after a positive experience.

Email Signatures

In your email signature, include a link to your profile page on a review site. With just a few clicks, customers who have enjoyed their experience with you will be able to leave feedback.

Posts on social media

Consider asking for reviews in your social media posts if you are active on social media. Your customers can either be tagged in the post or mentioned directly in the text. In either case, it's an easy way to get more exposure for your request.

Email follow-up with customers

Send a follow-up email to your customers after they have made a purchase asking them to leave a review. You can use this tactic very effectively if you provide excellent customer service - happy customers will be more than happy to leave feedback!

Request for Review Pop-up

Utilizing a free tool is the easiest way to implement this strategy. A popup request for reviews can be added to your website or app with a single click. It can even be targeted to specific pages or promotions for maximum impact!

Methods such as email requests and social media posts can easily be combined with this method. You will be able to cover all major platforms while maintaining efficiency.

Follow-up and request a video

Often, new firms go out of their way to contact their customers. Hence, making a phone call and directly speaking with clients is becoming more popular and offers a great experience.

You can also ask them to record a video testimonial to share on social media. Video testimonials are more persuasive than other types of reviews as they offer real people talking about your product or service.

Exchange testimonials and reviews with other businesses

You can swap testimonials and reviews with other businesses. Third-party reviews help businesses improve their online presence.

When swapping testimonials and reviews, keep these things in mind:

  • Verify the credibility and reputation of the other business.
  • Only swap testimonials and reviews with businesses you trust.
  • Review the terms of service before swapping testimonials. Both businesses will be protected from legal issues.
