The challenge

What makes reviews hard for a trades business.

Trust is everything in someone's home

Letting a stranger in to fix something is a leap of faith — recent 5-star reviews are often the only reassurance a customer has.

Jobs are sporadic, so asking gets forgotten

Between quoting, the job itself, and the next call-out, remembering to ask a happy customer for a review rarely happens consistently.

The Google Maps 3-pack takes the calls

Local search results are dominated by the top three map results — everyone else fights for the leftover clicks.

How RepBeacon helps

Built around how your customers actually behave.

A text the moment the job's done

As soon as work is marked complete, a friendly review request goes out automatically — no reminders needed.

QR code for the invoice or van

Print a QR straight onto invoices, or stick one on the van, so every customer has a one-scan path to leaving a review.

Your Google Business Profile, managed

Posts, photos and opening hours stay fresh and accurate, keeping you a step ahead of competitors who neglect theirs.
