How Do I Get More Reviews for My Business?

Client reviews are one of the most powerful ways to advertise your business online. While you know your business is great, a lot of people aren’t going to simply take your word for it. Getting reviews builds credibility and helps create a positive reputation for your business. The question is, how do you get more reviews?

1.    Have a QR Code at Your Physical Location

With the advent of COVID, many restaurants have started using QR codes for their menus. Regardless of whether you own a restaurant or not, take advantage of QR codes and have one readily available so that customers can scan it and write reviews for your business.

2.    Ask People for Reviews After Their Visit

Just like many customer service calls request a survey right after finishing a call, you should always try to ask customers for reviews shortly after they visit your business or use your services. Not only will their experience be fresh in their minds, but it will also mean you can get immediate feedback on what areas of your business need attention.

If people decline to write an interview right away, don’t be afraid to send a follow up later! They may have been too busy to do one at the time.

3.    Ask People on Social Media to Leave Reviews

If they like you enough to follow you, they probably like you enough to leave a review! Just keep in mind that people on social media might be more inclined to write reviews that are five words long instead of twenty.

In short, if you want customers to leave reviews for your business, just ask! Whether it’s online or at your physical location, asking people and making writing feedback easy are the best ways to get more reviews.
