Google Review Campaign South Africa The business with more Google reviews gets the call.

What the R800 a month covers

Most happy customers would leave a review if someone asked them at the right moment and made it easy. The campaign does the asking for you, every month, by SMS.

• Your own review link, set up so it opens straight to the star rating on your Google profile. No searching, no hunting for the right button
• You send us the names and cellphone numbers of your recent customers. Only people who have actually done business with you
• We write the SMS in your business name: short, friendly, and with the review link in it
• We buy the bulk SMS package and send the messages for you. The cost of the SMSes is included in the R800, so there is nothing extra to pay
• Messages go out soon after the job, while the customer still remembers it
• A reminder to the customers who have not left a review yet
• Every message lets the customer opt out of further SMSes, as POPIA requires
• Your review count and star rating tracked month on month, and reported back to you
• Advice on replying to your reviews, including the bad ones

What one campaign did: 35 reviews to 149 in three months

One of our clients had about 35 Google reviews when we started. Three months later they had 149. As the count climbed, they moved up in Google search and on Google Maps for the searches their customers make, and that brought them more customers. The client asked us not to name them, so we do not.

Why it pays for itself

People choose between the top few businesses on Google Maps, and they choose the one with more reviews and a better rating. More reviews means Google shows you higher, more people see you, and more of them call. For most local businesses, one or two extra customers a month more than covers the R800. How fast reviews come in depends on how many customers you serve, so we cannot promise a number, but we track it so you can see exactly what you are getting.

Why it matters more than the website

A five-star profile with sixty reviews outranks a beautiful website with none. For a local business, reviews are the single strongest signal Google has for who to show first — and the strongest signal a customer has for who to trust.

Never fake, ever

We do not buy reviews and we do not write them. Bought reviews get detected, get removed, and can get a profile suspended. What we do is make it effortless for the customers you already made happy to say so.
