We've been using Arrivala for the last few months and it's had a great impact on our business. We were able to reach out to hundreds of past customers and solicit reviews we certainly would not have gotten otherwise. The automation part is a big time saver when compared to the cost it would take to handle this manually.

- Jane Silas

---

Looks good so far. I'd really like a mobile app for our techs to use in the field to send review requests to customers.

We moved over to Arrivala from a comepeitor due to the cost savings. Arrivala is just as good as the other service we were using but 1/10 of the price.

This is what I've been searching for for months! I tried a couple other providers and their services worked as well but my small business could not afford the $400/month price tag. Great service at a reasonable price for small business owners! Very happy!!!!

- Cathy

---

Quick to get setup, has every feature we need! What more could you ask for?

- Michael

I was able to get set up very quickly, Arrivala works as expected and serves our business well

- Rebecca

Great service

Good experience. Improved our reviews within days.

The ability to request reviews automatically has been a lifesaver for our small business. We used to do this manually and it took up a good hour nearly every day. Arrivala has solved that for us and at only $30 month it's a great deal!

- Joshua

---

Very friendly support team and great product.

- Victoria

---

Great system. Works as advertised and much cheaper than other options available.

We've been using Arrivala for a few months and have been very happy with the service. Very affordable for our small business compared to other services that we were comparing it to. I would indeed recommend Arrivala for other businesses that are seeking a review collection tool.

- Johnny Kissanti

Good working

- Raju kayyam

Arrivala has been a great service to our landscaping business. We had tried some other options in the past but they've either been too expensive or did not do everything required. Arrivala is the perfect mix of price and features. You get great value for what you pay for!

Test comment

- Ian Hunter

Arrivala was a big reason for our success in 2018. After reviews started appearing on Google search results we received a big bump in traffic and the leads have been steady ever since. We’re in a pretty competitive lawn care market in Southwest Florida and Arrivala has enabled our company to standout from competitors. We did end up upgrading the the premium service to enable text message sending. Overall a great service!

- John Ballamy

---

What a fantastic service. We were looking for a way to jump start out reviews and Arrivala was the perfect entry level service. The WordPress plugin made it very easy to get setup even for people who may not be tech-savvy such as myself.

- Jenny Lloyd

---

The product is fantastic for the price. We tried a couple other services previously and they had a few more features we enjoyed but certainly not worth the $400+ we were paying every month. Arrivala has everything we need to keep charging forward with more product reviews at a price point that is sustainable for our business. Keep up the great work, Arrivala!

- Ian Dawson

---

Exactly what we needed. Support has been super helpful, we’re improving our review count, does what it is supposed to. What more can you ask?

- Brady Eli

---

Great product backed by great support. When we have a question we always get a response within a day, most of the time the same day. The product is exactly as described and we’re super excited about the new WordPress plugin although we haven’t started using it yet.

- Kelly Williams

---

We run a fine jewelry shop and were comparing different options to help generate reviews on Google. We thought we had already found our solution when at the last minute we heard about Arrivala. After trying the free version we were very happy with the product. The price point was about 1/8 of the price we were going to pay for a similar product. Affordable and a great product, I have already recommended to several friends.

- Kacey Johnson

---

We were referred to Arrivala by a friend of the owner. We were aware it was a newer product but the price point was unbeatable and we were in the market so we gave it a go. What’s the worst that could happen? We’ve been blown away. There were a couple of small issues at first but the support has been top notch and everything has been resolved very quickly. We’ve been recommending the service to fellow business owners for nearly 6 months. Keep up the great work!

- Peter Wilson

---

We’re a new dental office and trying to get established in search results. We came across Arrivala and decided to give it a go to get some Google reviews. It’s been the single best decision we’ve made in terms of online marketing. We crossed the 60 review mark last week and our website traffic has improved 10X. Almost all of our traffic is organic now which has allowed us to cut back on the $2k/month budget we were spending on Google Adwords. Arrivala is actually saving us money on top of bringing in new clients.

- Janet Olsen

---

The text messaging feature is fantastic. Prior to using Arrivala, we were manually sending out emails asking for customer reviews. Now, we get past their unread email inbox and right to their text messages. The number of reviews we’ve received in the last month is equivalent to what we received all last year. Thanks Arrivala!

- Judy Timmons

---

The bad: the kiosk mode could use some improvement. While it does work, it’s pretty difficult for people to share their reviews to Google from our store. The good: literally everything else. We’re super happy with the product and it is very cost effective. Other services like this go for a few hundreds dollars per month.

- Jackson Gregory

---

Great service backed by great support. I would recommend to my friends and hide from my competitors :)

- James Quintal

---

We did a lot of shopping around before deciding on Arrivala so I feel very confident is saying this is the best product out there for your money. If budget was not a thing, I would potentially select a different product but this has everything you need and more at a great price. Don’t pay $200/month for other products when this is what you need.

- Paula Norton

---

We’re still relatively new to Arrivala but thus far it’s been very smooth to setup and we were up and running in about an hour with all the settings configured. We haven’t yet sent out our first review request but the process seems pretty straight forward. We’re excited to see the results.

- Johnny Davis

---

Kudos for a great product to help small businesses grow and compete with the big guys. We certainly would recommend the service to our friends and business associates. Great work!

- Heather Mason

---

Worth. Every. Penny. I’m telling you, reviews have taken us from a small, ugly website on the internet not really serving a purpose to a consistent flow of daily new customers. Arrivala has been a huge part of helping us get there.

- Keller Hawkins

---

We love Arrivala! From our very first pre-sales call they have been nothing but supportive and guiding in helping us get started. The system is easy to use but when you have a question, you know you’ll get a pretty quick answer. We will likely be lifelong customers.

- Julie Raymond

---

An essential tool in the small business toolbox. Arrivala has most certainly helped us bring in new clientele and is worth the monthly fee. We regularly recommend to others.

- Houston Wallace

---

A great option for review collection. We are a local general contractor and our reviews have increase from just a few to over 20 in the last few months. I’m very pleased when I do a search for local contractor and I’m the first result on the Google map with all those great reviews. Couldn’t of done it without Arrivala.

- Roger Neville

---

“you get what you pay for”. Not the case with Arrivala! You get what you pay for and soooo much more. I was hesitant to write this review but Arrivala, you need to raise your prices. You could easily be charging 4x the amount if not more. Reviews are very important to our business as there is a lot of local competition and it seems whoever the most reviews typically wins the Google battle. It’s safe to say, we’re winning thanks to Arrivala.

- Chris York

Awesome company to work with!

Creating A Process For Collecting Business Reviews

October 13, 2019
General News
business growth, business reviews, customer feedback, online reviews, review process

You likely won’t find a business owner who says reviews are unimportant. We all know it but why is it that some businesses seem to succeed on this front with ease while others struggle to bring in a single review? We studied over 50 business owners and in the end, it all came down to one simple thing: Business owners that succeeded had a process in place. They knew the importance of reviews so they created a system that ensured they collected as many as possible. Not only that but 85% of the businesses we surveyed said they improved their business practices based on the negative reviews that came in. Luckily for those businesses, they used a review collection tool which ensured that the negative reviews did not impact their public appearance but more on that later.

What were these processes that businesses put in place to generate business reviews? Today we’ll give you the magic sauce secret recipes that made it all happen. Let’s get going!

Printable Review Handouts

If you own a retail store or any business where you meet with clients in person this is an absolute necessity. Creating a one-page Google review instructional handout takes less than a minute to do thanks to this free Google Handout Generator tool. Simply enter your business name and include a logo (or not) and it instantly creates a one-page PDF that you can print out at your office and handout to customers or clients as they walk out your store or office. The handout generator works as it provides a physical reminder to leave the review and is not as easily tossed in the trash or forgotten about.

Add Links To Email Signatures

This is another simple and easy way to start bringing in reviews with ZERO extra effort. Head over to this free Google Review Link Generator tool to create a simple & short link allowing visitors to instantly leave a review. It takes them all the way to the review writing screen and even works great on mobile devices. Add the link to your signature and include it on every email you send out.

I know what you’re thinking, I sometimes email people who may not be happy with my business. Do I really want to include this in every email? You’re not alone here. If this is a concern for you, consider signing up for a review automation and collection service such as Arrivala. Free plans are available! Using a service like this can act as a buffer, filtering out negative reviews from being published publicly.

Create & Send Out Mailers

A recent study for a retail business selling jewelry placed the value of a 5-star business review at $18.43. Meaning, for every new 5-star review that the business brought in, they received over $18 in additional business profits. That’s pretty impressive! Now consider the cost involved to reach out to 300 or so past customers with a mailer and ask them to leave a review? The cost can vary a bit from $0.50 to $1.00 per mailer but for this example let’s side on the high side at $1.00. That would cost $300 to send out this mailer campaign. Even if you only received a response from 10% of the 300 (30 people) then you would still receive $552.90 in additional sales based on the review value of $18.43. That would be a $252.90 profit!

Sign-Up For A Review Automation Platform

Finally, signup for a review automation service to handle review collection from your past customers. These services used to be very expensive costing hundreds of dollars per month but recently there has been an influx in affordable review collection & automation services hit the market.

These services allow you to automatically follow-up with past customers via email (and often time text messages) and request reviews for your business. Some services will integrate with all of your business review profiles and can be extremely effective at getting the same review distributed to each of them.

——————

If you’ve been a business owner who’s been neglecting review collection, it’s time to make it a priority. I could sit here and rattle off all kinds of statistics on how people trust reviews more than the opinions of their family and friends but we’ll leave that for another discussion. The first two methods for collection reviews we noted above will take you less than 15 minutes to implement. Don’t put it off any longer, get started today!
