Auto-ask
Every customer asked, automatically.
The hardest part of getting reviews is remembering to ask, every customer, every time. Auto-ask does it for you, the moment the job is done, so you capture the 5-star reviews you're already earning.
The short answer
Auto-ask is automatic review requesting. The instant a job wraps, an invoice is paid, or you mark a visit complete, Rhody Reviews sends that customer a short text or email with a one-tap link to your Google review page. You don't have to remember, and you don't have to type. Every customer gets the same honest ask at the moment they're most likely to say yes, which is the single biggest reason businesses go from a trickle of reviews to a steady stream.
How auto-ask works
The job wraps
A visit ends, an invoice is paid, or you mark a job complete and Auto-ask sees the trigger.
The ask goes out
Your customer gets a friendly text or email with a one-tap link to your Google review page.
The review lands
They leave a review in seconds, it posts to Google, and Rhody drafts your reply for approval.
Why does asking at the right moment matter so much?
Most owners are great at the work and terrible at the follow-up. Not because they're lazy, but because the moment a job ends they're already driving to the next one. The review that would have happened never gets asked for. Auto-ask removes the remembering entirely, so the ask happens at the one moment a customer is most willing to leave a review: right after you did a great job.
This matters because reviews are not a one-time pile. They're a steady signal. A business that adds a few honest reviews every week looks current and trustworthy to both customers and the AI assistants people now use to find a local pro.
What does Auto-ask actually send?
A short, plain message in your business name with a single one-tap link straight to your Google review page. No login wall, no five-step form. The fewer steps between a happy customer and your review page, the more reviews you get. The message goes out from your dedicated phone number, which every Rhody Reviews plan includes, so it reads like a real business and not a random shortcode.
How Auto-ask fits the rest of Rhody Reviews
Auto-ask sits at the front of the loop. Here's how the pieces connect:
| Stage | What happens | The feature |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Ask | Every finished job triggers a review request | Auto-ask |
| 2. Capture | One tap or scan opens your review page | QR and links |
| 3. Watch | New reviews are pulled in the moment they post | Review monitoring |
| 4. Reply | Rhody drafts a reply in your voice, you approve it | AI replies |
| 5. Reuse | Your best reviews go on your site and social feeds | Website widget and social posting |
You can start with Auto-ask alone and turn on the rest as you go. There's no contract, the trial is 14 days, and you don't need a credit card to begin. Getting your review machine running shouldn't cost you a single late night. (And unlike that one customer who "definitely left a review, I swear," Auto-ask actually follows through.)
