Asking clients to leave you an online review can be a great way to build your online presence and reputation. In fact, more and more customers are actively looking for your customer reviews before they reach out and connect with you or your team members.
Here are some steps you can follow to ask your clients for reviews:
Here are some steps you can follow to ask your clients for reviews:
- Timing: Choose the right time to ask for a review. Ideally, you want to ask for a review when the client is feeling positive about their experience with you. For example, after you have successfully completed a project, or after you have resolved a client's problem.
- Provide options: Provide options for where the client can leave a review. Some common platforms to leave reviews are Google, Facebook and industry-specific platforms. Also, through AdvisrME you can start building and showcasing your own bank of individual team member reviews. Remember, you need to make it easy for the client to find the platforms and guide them through the process.
- Be specific: Explain why you're asking for a review and how it can help your business. Be specific about what you're looking for in the review, such as specific feedback on a product or service. Encourage the client to be honest, but also ask for constructive feedback.
- Keep it short and simple: Keep your request for a review short and simple. Provide a clear call to action, such as "Leave us a review," and include links to the relevant review platforms.
- Follow up: If the client agrees to leave a review, follow up with a thank you message. If they haven't left a review after a few days, send a gentle reminder.
Here's an example message you can use:
Dear [client's name],
