Question 1

How do you get more reviews for my shop?

Accepted Answer

We set up an automated review request system that sends a text or email to customers after a service visit, making it effortless for happy customers to leave a Google review. The timing, message, and follow-up sequence are all tuned to maximize response rates without feeling pushy. Most shops see a significant uptick in new reviews within the first 30 days.

Question 2

Can you remove bad reviews?

Accepted Answer

We can flag reviews that violate Google's policies (fake reviews, spam, reviews from non-customers) and submit removal requests on your behalf, but we can't guarantee Google removes them. What we can do is help you respond to negative reviews professionally, which often matters more than the review itself. A well-handled complaint publicly demonstrates your customer service.

Question 3

Which review platforms do you monitor?

Accepted Answer

Google is the priority. It has the most direct impact on local search rankings and customer trust. We also monitor Yelp, Facebook, and any other platforms where your shop has a presence. All reviews funnel into a single dashboard so nothing slips through the cracks.

Question 4

Do reviews actually affect my Google ranking?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Review quantity, recency, and your response rate are all factors Google's local algorithm weighs. A shop with 200 recent reviews and active owner responses outperforms a shop with 40 old reviews, all else being equal. Think of your review profile as part of your SEO engine. It needs regular fuel.

Question 5

What if a competitor is leaving fake negative reviews?

Accepted Answer

This happens more than most shop owners realize. We can identify patterns that indicate fake or coordinated reviews, help you document the evidence, and submit detailed removal requests to Google. In extreme cases, we can guide you through the process of escalating with Google support. We've seen this situation before and know how to fight it.
