How to send a review request

Review requests are one of the fastest ways to grow your rating. A small, well-timed ask can meaningfully lift your average over time.

  1. Create a contact list

    Go to Outreach → Contacts and import your customers. You can upload a CSV with names, email addresses and phone numbers, or add contacts one at a time. If you have connected Square, new customers are added for you as they buy. To text them, import the ones who agreed to texts. GetSetReply stores them as a reusable list you can split into smaller lists and target over time.

  2. Build and send a review request

    Go to Outreach → Customer Outreach and click "New Review Request." Pick the contacts you want to reach, write the text with merge tags for the customer's name, then preview it and send a test to yourself before you commit. Each text spends text segments, not credits.

  3. Set a send window, then let it run

    You can send once, or leave the request running so it goes out automatically. A send window keeps messages inside civilised hours, a per-contact frequency cap stops the same customer being asked twice, and follow-ups chase the people who did not respond. Every request points at your review funnel, so every customer lands on your public listings, and anyone who is unhappy can reach you privately first.

  4. Track results

    GetSetReply tracks delivery, clicks and which reviews came back from which campaign. Check Outreach → Customer Outreach to see what is working and how many customers left a review after receiving your message.

Review requests by text are on Professional and Enterprise, with the Dedicated Number add-on ($10/mo, 500 texts a month included). Your review funnel links, QR codes and contacts are on every plan.
