The ask, sent at the right moment
A short text goes out shortly after the job is done, while the customer still feels the relief of it being handled. Timing matters more than wording. The same message a week later performs a fraction as well.

More reviews, asked for properly, from the customers who were already happy.
Reviews are the difference between two businesses that look the same on a map. Almost every owner knows this and almost nobody asks, because asking feels awkward and because the moment to ask passes within about a day.
This is for you if
It is not for you if
Every line below is work that gets done, not a category. Where a term is unavoidable it is explained on the spot.

The link goes straight to the box with the stars already showing, not to your listing where they have to hunt. Every extra tap costs you roughly half the people, which is why generic requests fail.
The message asks how it went before it asks for a review. Anyone unhappy reaches you privately instead of the public listing. This is not review gating, they can still review you publicly and we never block that. It just means you hear about a problem in time to fix it.
Every review answered, including the bad ones, in your voice. A calm reply under a one star review does more for the reader than the star rating does, and Google counts responses as activity.

What this does not cover
Writing fake reviews or incentivising them. Both are against Google policy, both are detectable, and the penalty lands on you rather than on us.
Asking how it went before asking for a review is fine. Blocking someone from reviewing you is not, and we do not do it. Anyone can still leave whatever they like.
You will eventually, and it matters far less than owners fear. A perfect five with forty reviews reads as suspicious. A 4.7 with a well handled complaint reads as real.
