When to Ask for Reviews
Timing is everything. Asking at the right moment dramatically increases your review conversion rate.
Best Moment to Ask
When the problem is solved and the customer experiences the relief or satisfaction of the fix - the lights come back on, the new fixture is working perfectly, or the panel upgrade is complete. This is the "it works!" moment when gratitude is highest.
Worst Moment to Ask
During an emergency, before the work is tested, or when there's sticker shock over the invoice. Never ask if the customer is upset about pricing, timeline delays, or if you had to make multiple trips to complete the job.
The Breaker Panel Review Card
Before you leave the job site, place a branded business-card-sized review request card inside the electrical panel door (or tape it to the panel if it's a visible location). The card says: "Your electrical system is safe and working perfectly. If you're happy with our work, we'd love your feedback!" with a QR code linking to your Google Business Profile. Homeowners open their breaker panel regularly (to reset breakers, turn off circuits, etc.), and every time they see your card, they're reminded of your quality work. This creates multiple "reminder moments" long after the job is done, resulting in reviews weeks or even months later.
Electrical work solves urgent, stressful problems - when the power is out or something isn't working, homeowners feel helpless. The moment you fix it, they feel relief and gratitude. Capture that emotion immediately.
Getting reviews is only half the battle.

Who Should Ask
Office manager or dispatcher
Training Tip
Train your electricians to recognize "review moments" on the job - when the customer says "thank you so much" or expresses relief that the problem is solved. Have them mention the review card they're leaving behind and offer to text the link right away. Your office manager should send automated review request texts or emails within 2-4 hours of marking a job complete.
Follow-Up Timing
Ask in person at the end of the job, then send a follow-up text or email 2-4 hours later. Follow up once more 3-5 days later if no review is left, then stop.
Where to Place Review Reminders
Make it easy for customers to leave a review by placing reminders where they already look.
Physical Placements
Breaker panel door card
Leave a branded card inside the electrical panel door (or taped to the panel if it's in a visible location) with a review request and QR code. Homeowners will see it every time they access the panel.

Include a small thank-you card in the invoice envelope (or hand it to the customer with the invoice) that includes a review request and QR code.
Service truck signage
Add a small "Happy with our service? Leave us a review!" decal with a QR code to the back or side of your service truck. Customers and neighbors see it every time you're on-site.
Door hanger for unattended jobs
For jobs where the customer isn't home (e.g., property manager work), leave a door hanger with a summary of work completed and a review request with QR code.
Digital Placements
