The fact is, many small businesses are brilliant at what they do but feel uncomfortable about self praise. The first thing to remember is ‘don’t be embarrassed to ask for a review’. If you’ve done a great job or provided a first class service you deserve it so get in there and ask away!
Politely asking for a review means your good work will be shared locally driving more people to your door and getting more enquiries. Use these simple suggestions and before long you’ll be asking all your clients for feedback with confidence!
“If you’re happy with our service please take a minute to leave us a review – As a local business we rely on customer feedback to build our reputation”
“If you’ve enjoyed the experience please don’t keep us a secret – Leaving an on-line review will tell other people about our business”
“We rely on customer feedback to continually improve our service – An on-line review about your visit would be much appreciated”.
Also, make it easy for people to leave you a review – Have your details easily to hand and include a request in all correspondence such as invoices and emails.
