Will’s Notes
Reviews are the single most powerful trust signal for a local service business. Before a customer lets you into their home to measure their windows, they want to know you’re trustworthy. Reviews are how they decide that.
The problem most dealers have isn’t that their customers don’t like them — it’s that they never ask for the review at the right time. The best time to ask is immediately after the installation, when the customer is excited and happy. That window closes fast.
The solution is automation. With the right system, you can send a review request automatically via text message within minutes of job completion. No manual follow-up required. Our clients who implement this typically see their Google review count double within 90 days.
LeadBoomerang has this built in. You can set it up once and it runs on autopilot. The message goes out, the customer clicks the link, and they’re taken directly to your Google review page. Simple, effective, and completely hands-off.

Will’s Notes
You just finished a job. The customer is thrilled. They’re standing in their living room admiring their new window treatments. What happens next?
If you’re not systematically asking for a review right then and there, you’re missing the single most important moment in your marketing.
The key is to ask at the peak of their happiness — the moment they see the finished product. But don’t just say “leave us a review.” Make it easy. Send them a direct link to your Google review page via text message while you’re still in their home. It takes 10 seconds.
Then, automate the follow-up. A reminder text 2 days later. An email a week later. This isn’t pushy — it’s just good service. Most people want to leave a review, they just forget.
We built this entire workflow into LeadBoomerang. It automatically sends review requests via text and email, follows up on schedule, and notifies you when a new review comes in. We call it Reputation Automation, and it’s one of the highest-ROI features in the platform. Clients who use it consistently see their review count double within 90 days.
