How do plumbers and HVAC companies get more Google reviews automatically?
On Google, the contractor with 150 five-star reviews beats the one with 12 reviews every time — even if the 12-review contractor does better work. 93% of homeowners read reviews before calling a contractor, and businesses in the top 3 of Google Maps have an average of 150+ reviews. Your work speaks for itself — but only if customers actually leave reviews.
