Market and operating detail

What creates demand

Reviews are a ranking factor and a conversion factor at once — they influence map position and then close the visitor who sees it.

How buyers decide

Velocity matters more than total count. A steady flow of recent reviews outperforms a large stale total.

The unit economics that matter

Review programs cost almost nothing and lift performance across every channel, which makes them the highest-leverage program most operators postpone.

Where budget goes first

Automated post-job requests triggered from the CRM, consistent response to every review, and a defined escalation path for negatives.

The operational constraint

Requests must fire at the right moment in the job lifecycle — too early or too late and response rates collapse.

The pricing and margin lever

Strong review profiles support premium pricing by removing the buyer's need to shop on price alone.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's a good review velocity?
10-30 new reviews per month per location is realistic for an active program. Faster than your competitors is what matters.
Should we respond to every review?
Yes — every one, positive or negative. Response rate is a ranking and trust signal.
Can you remove bad reviews?
Only if they violate platform policy. We focus on outweighing them with high volume of authentic positive reviews.
