Sound familiar? These are costing you money every day.

Most businesses only ask for reviews verbally — customers say yes and forget by the time they get home

Email review requests are buried in inboxes, land in spam, and average a 1–2% conversion to posted review

Unhappy customers are far more motivated to leave reviews than satisfied ones — skewing your public rating

Manually tracking who to ask and following up is a task that never gets done consistently

Google requires fresh, recent reviews — a stream of 2–3 per week beats a burst of 50 then nothing

The DMHub difference

How DMHub solves review requests

1

Timed post-interaction request

DMHub sends a review request 30–120 minutes after a purchase or service completion — when satisfaction is highest. Timing is configurable per transaction type.

2

Sentiment routing (happy vs unhappy)

The initial message asks "How was your experience? 😊 Great / 😞 Not great." Happy customers get a direct Google review link. Unhappy customers get routed to your inbox for private resolution before any public review.

3

One-tap Google review deep link

Happy customers receive a link that opens directly to the Google review compose screen for your business — zero navigation friction. Review completion rates average 34% from this link.

4

Multi-platform routing (Google, Yelp, Trustpilot)

Route review requests to any combination of platforms based on the customer's purchase type, location, or segment. Spread reviews across platforms to build a diversified reputation.

Everything you need, built in

The sentiment routing is brilliant. We caught 8 unhappy customers privately in the first month — none of them left a public 1-star review because we resolved the issue fast.

Our competitors have been in business longer but our Google rating is now higher. Fresh weekly reviews from WhatsApp completely changed our local SEO ranking.

FAQ

Common questions.

When exactly does the review request go out?

You configure the delay from the trigger event. Common setups: 30 minutes after restaurant checkout, 2 hours after a salon appointment, or 24 hours after a product delivery. You can also set blackout hours (e.g., no messages after 9 PM) and suppress requests for customers who received one in the last 90 days.

How does the sentiment routing work?

The review request message includes two buttons: a positive one (🌟 "Loved it") and a neutral/negative one (💬 "Had an issue"). Positive respondents receive your Google review link immediately. Negative respondents receive a message opening a private support conversation in your DMHub inbox, so you can resolve the issue before it becomes a public review.

Does DMHub work with Google Business Profile directly?

DMHub generates a direct deep link to your Google Business Profile review compose screen. Customers tap the link and are dropped directly into the "Write a review" interface — no search, no navigation. You connect your Google Business Profile URL once during setup.

Can I A/B test different review request messages?

Yes. DMHub's A/B test feature lets you test two message variants with a configurable traffic split. After a statistically significant sample, DMHub identifies the winner and routes all traffic to it. Common tests: direct vs. question-first approach, emoji vs. no emoji, 30-min vs. 2-hour delay.

Is it against Google's terms to ask customers for reviews?

Asking customers to leave honest reviews is allowed under Google's policies. What is prohibited is incentivizing reviews or selectively asking only happy customers. DMHub's sentiment routing asks all customers the same question — unhappy customers are offered private resolution, not disqualified from leaving a review.
