Contractors
How can a contractor get more Google reviews?
Make asking part of closeout. Within 24 to 72 hours of finishing, text the customer a short message with a direct link to your Google review form (get it from your Google Business Profile dashboard). Personalize it: mention the project and thank them by name. Have the owner or project lead ask in person at the final walkthrough, then send the link. Send one polite reminder after a week if needed. Make it easy: a QR code on your invoice and leave-behind card. Respond to every review within a few days. Don't offer discounts or gifts in exchange for reviews; that violates Google's policy. A steady few reviews a month beats a sudden burst. McCrawAI sets up review routines for contractors, and we also turn good reviews into content.
Follow-up questions
How many reviews does a contractor need?
There's no magic number. A steady flow of recent, genuine reviews matters more than a total.
Can I ask for reviews by text?
Yes. A short, personal text with your direct review link is one of the easiest ways.
Is it okay to remind customers to leave a review?
One polite reminder is fine. More than that can feel pushy.
