What to say, and when to say it
One rule sets the timing, three scripts cover the in-person ask, the text and the email, and two more sections cover answering a review once it's posted and making sure the ask happens after every job.
- The timing rule: ask at the final walkthrough, once the homeowner has seen the finished fence and any HOA approval is confirmed.
- The line to use in person, at the final walkthrough.
- The text to send the same day the job is complete.
- The follow-up email to send if that text goes three days without a response.
- How to respond to a negative review without arguing in public.
- How to build the same-day text into your CRM so it fires the same way no matter which crew did the install.
