A Fun Little Hack to Improve Your Google 5-star Reviews

 

So, first, it starts with going to Google My Business. You have to have a Google My Business account to be able to get the link of your review and be able to manage the account, so that's really critical. 

You're going to sign in, or you're gonna manage now. Google will take you through the steps for signing up for Google My Business listing. It's super super easy, so once you're in and you click through, you'll land on the home page. 

Google does this fantastic thing that they don't really like to tell everybody about. They add this little section that says get more reviews. They give you a link that goes directly to your review page that you can hand out and give to customers. 

All you got to do is copy this link, and it brings up your business listing and asks people for a review. Now you don't want to just send this out to every single client. You obviously only want the people that you know are gonna give you five-star reviews. But you don't always know that, so what we suggest and we outlined in our blog 3 Main Street USA marketing musts. Write a simple little email that sends happy clients to your five-star review and allows you to contact unhappy clients before they review it.

Sending out this email along with a five-star review link can significantly increase your reviews. It helps with reputation management and your local SEO.
