## 1. Resolve problems fast to create satisfied customers

A customer whose problem was solved quickly is the most likely candidate to leave a positive review. Start by handling support tickets well.

**Menu path:** *Support tickets*

<ol class="steps">
<li>Open <strong>Support tickets</strong> in the side menu and find the open ticket.</li>
<li>Set the correct <strong>Priority</strong> (High or Urgent) for the most sensitive cases.</li>
<li>Assign an <strong>Owner</strong> so no request is left without one.</li>
<li>Reply through the ticket conversation, logging each interaction in the history.</li>
<li>Change the <strong>Status</strong> to <strong>Resolved</strong> as soon as the solution is delivered.</li>
</ol>

:::tip
Tickets resolved quickly are the best foundation for asking for a review. Prioritize response time.

## 2. Collect feedback with a form

Before asking for a public review, understand the level of satisfaction. Build a satisfaction form to hear the customer and identify who is ready to recommend your company.

**Menu path:** *Form builder*

<ol class="steps">
<li>Open <strong>Form builder</strong> and click <strong>+ Create</strong>.</li>
<li>Name the form <strong>Satisfaction survey</strong>.</li>
<li>Add a <strong>rating</strong> field (0 to 10) to measure customer satisfaction.</li>
<li>Include an <strong>open comment</strong> field for the customer to detail the experience.</li>
<li>Add the <strong>Name</strong> and <strong>Email</strong> fields to link the answer to the customer.</li>
<li>Click <strong>Publish</strong> and copy the link to send to customers.</li>
</ol>

:::tip
Use the satisfaction score to separate promoters (high scores) from those who still need attention before any review request.
:::

## 3. Ask for the review in the follow-up

Customers who gave a high score are the ideal ones to invite. Add your Google reviews page link to an email template and send it in the follow-up, right after the service.

**Menu path:** *Settings > Email templates*

<ol class="steps">
<li>Open <strong>Settings</strong> and go to <strong>Email templates</strong>.</li>
<li>Click <strong>+ Create</strong> and name the template <strong>Review request</strong>.</li>
<li>Write a short message thanking the customer for their business.</li>
<li>Add your company's <strong>Google reviews link</strong> in a button or highlighted text.</li>
<li>Save the template and use it in the follow-up for satisfied customers.</li>
</ol>

## 4. Track satisfaction and react to complaints

Reputation management does not end at the review request. Track the feedback received and handle complaints before they become a public bad review.

**Menu path:** *Support tickets / CRM*

<ol class="steps">
<li>Open <strong>Support tickets</strong> and review tickets with High priority or low satisfaction scores.</li>
<li>For each complaint, open a ticket and assign an owner for the follow-up.</li>
<li>In the <strong>CRM</strong>, find the customer and log a note with the service history.</li>
<li>After resolving, reach out to confirm whether the experience improved.</li>
<li>Only then send the <strong>Review request</strong> template to that customer.</li>
</ol>
