In short

How do I automatically ask customers for reviews after an appliance repair?

WebRun opens Housecall Pro each morning, finds every job completed in the last 24 hours, and drafts a personalised review request by email via Gmail and by SMS via Twilio for each customer. Both are queued for your approval before sending, turning every completed repair into a prompted review opportunity.

  • Every completed job prompts a review request the next morning without manual effort
  • Personalised messages with the technician's name get higher response rates than generic blasts
  • Customers who were recently asked are skipped automatically to avoid over-messaging

Questions, answered

Will it send review requests to customers without my approval?

No. Every email and SMS is drafted and queued for your review. Nothing goes to the customer until a human approves it, so you control every outbound message.

How does it avoid spamming customers who already left a review?

It tracks when each customer last received a review request and skips anyone contacted in the last 90 days, so customers are never asked twice in a short period.

Can I use my own review link or template?

Yes. Provide your Google Business review link and a preferred tone or example message, and WebRun will use them for every draft it produces.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes - or have our team set it up for you.
