Most home-service customers check Google before they call. Plumbers, electricians, cleaners, landscapers and builders win work on trust, and recent local reviews are one of the quickest ways to show it.
Ask when the job is done
The best moment is the walk-through: the customer sees the finished work and is relieved or pleased. Hand over the card and say “If you are happy, a quick Google review helps us a lot. Just tap this with your phone.”
Why a card beats a business card
A normal business card needs the customer to remember and search later. A tap card puts the review page on their screen immediately, and it lives in your ute so it is always on hand.
Tips for tradies
- Keep one card per vehicle and one in your toolbox.
- Add the suburb in your reply to each review to reinforce where you work.
- Ask the customer, not the property manager, when they own the experience.
- Photos of finished work on your profile make reviews more convincing.
Teams and franchises
If you run several vans or branches, you can enter a different business address and card quantity for each location in one order, and the price per card falls with total quantity.
Do it the right way
Ask everyone and avoid offering rewards for reviews; here are Google’s rules. For local search benefits, see reviews and local SEO.
