How to get more Google reviews — without the awkward ask.
You know reviews win the next customer. You also hate asking to somebody’s face, and by the time you remember, they have driven off. So let Rank Pilot do the asking in your name.
Review collection is coming soon. Rank Pilot does not ask your customers for reviews yet — this page describes what it will do. Answering the reviews you already have works today.
- It asks, so you never have to
- Sent in your name
- Right after the job is done
- Every reply drafted for you
The asking is the part you keep not doing
Standing in somebody’s kitchen asking them to rate you out of five is genuinely uncomfortable, so most owners skip it, and the review count stops moving. Rank Pilot does that bit for you, quietly, by message.
- Goes out once the job is finished, while you are still fresh in their mind.
- Text or email, whichever that customer is more likely to open.
- Signed off as you, so it reads like a person and not a system.
- You see who is being asked, and you can pull anyone out of the list.
Finished jobs this week12
Hi Dan — glad we could sort the leak out on Thursday. If you were happy with it, would you mind leaving a quick Google review? Twenty seconds, and it really does help us.
And when they come back, they get answered
A review nobody replied to reads as a business that has stopped paying attention. Every one that arrives gets an answer drafted in your voice, waiting for the two seconds it takes you to approve it.
- Drafted the day it lands, not whenever you next log in.
- In your words — brief if you are brief, warm if you are warm.
- Five stars can post themselves; anything lower waits for you.
- The awkward ones get a calm answer you would not have managed at 9pm.
“Second time we’ve used them. Quick, tidy, and they explained what they were doing without making me feel daft.”

Thanks Priya — good to see you again, and glad the explanation helped. Any questions later, just ring us.
A few every month beats a rush once a year
Reviews are not a total, they are a rhythm. A profile that quietly gains three or four a month keeps looking like somewhere that is open and busy, and it keeps closing the distance on whoever is above you.

- Asking when you rememberNow 13
Somebody has to do the asking
There is no version of this where reviews arrive on their own. The only question is whether the asking depends on you remembering, on a day you were rushed.
Ask them yourself
Free, and permanently awkward
- Bring it up at the end of a job without sounding like you are begging.
- Remember to do it on the days that ran late.
- Chase the ones who said yes and then forgot.
Or let Rank Pilot ask

- It never forgets, and it never feels awkward about it.
- It asks at the moment people are most likely to say yes.
- It handles the reply when the review shows up too.
Tell it who to ask. It writes the message.
Rank Pilot is a chat. You say what you want in ordinary words, and it comes back with the messages written, the list assembled, and nothing sent until you say go.
- “Ask this week’s customers” — one message per finished job.
- “Reply to my reviews” — drafts for everything waiting.
- “How many did we get?” — the month in one line.
Twelve finished jobs this week. I’ve written a message in your name for each one — they go out when you say so.

It asks the way your trade would ask
The right moment and the right wording are not the same for a salon as for a roofing crew, and a message that lands wrong just gets ignored.
It knows the timing
Straight after a haircut, a day after a boiler fit — whenever people in your line of work are most likely to answer.
It knows the wording
Short and friendly where that fits, more formal where it does not, without ever sounding like a survey.
It knows when not to
A customer who has just complained does not get asked for a review, which is the kind of thing an automated tool usually gets wrong.
What it costs

Real customers only. Nothing invented.
It asks people who actually hired you, after work you actually did. It never writes a review, never buys one and never asks a stranger — that gets profiles suspended, and a suspended profile is worth less than no reviews at all.

The questions you were going to ask anyway.
How long until I rank higher?
Rank Pilot starts on the profile fixes and the reviews in week one, and you can see both. Rankings usually move in 30 to 90 days. Nobody can make it faster, and anyone who promises to is lying to you.
Will you get me to the top?
We won’t promise that. Nobody controls Google, and everyone who says otherwise is selling something. We show you what changed and what it got you, every month.
Do you need my Google login?
Not for the scan. If you subscribe, you connect your profile once so Rank Pilot can make the fixes. It shows you everything before it goes live, and you can disconnect any time.
Are these fake reviews?
No. Rank Pilot asks your real customers after real visits. Fake reviews get businesses suspended from Google, so we will never touch them. Review collection is coming soon.
Is there a contract?
No. Month to month, cancel from your account.
Can I see what it finds before I pay?
That is what the free scan is. It shows your map, your gaps and the businesses ahead of you, with nothing held back and no card asked for.
