8 Ways to Get Reviews

List below video

1. Put your Review Request Link in your email signature

2. Give a review to another agent or business owner, then ask for a review in reciprocation – send them a screenshot of your review to prove you did it, and it makes your message to them more impactful with the visual (in case it gets caught in Google spam filters for some reason and doesn’t show up) – text I use…

“Mornin’! Gave ya review on Google!

Hope it shows up for ya. Here’s a screenshot in case it doesn’t.

If you’d like, feel free to reciprocate and hit me back one:

INSERT REVIEW REQUEST LINK HERE”

3. Ask friends and family (I would stay away from people with the same last name though… you don’t want to come across as “having a review from your mommy and daddy” lol)

4. Your entire team or company could ask their sphere as well

5. Send out a mass ask for reviews to your entire client database via email and/or text every once in a while (once or twice a year – along with asking current clients in transactions for reviews)

6. Ask at any events you host or attend. If you do a client appreciation event, you could have a QR code displayed for people to scan. Or if not your event, you can carry an RF scan card or printed QR code.

7. Ask at networking meetings or functions. Do the reciprocation method above live/in person with other business owners.

8. Do a social post asking for reviews and includ your review request link every once in a while (up to quarterly/4 times a year seems reasonable – you don’t want to be asking that all the time)
