Google Reviewsystem that runs itself.
Job finishes. Review request goes out. Reminder follows up. Referral ask captures the next lead. All automatic. All branded as you.
Available on all plans. Email review requests on Starter. SMS + referral loop on Professional.
Positioning
Most businesses ask for reviews when they remember.
Strelve asks every single time a job finishes.
Then follows up. Then asks for the referral.
The difference between a handful of reviews and a steady stream is not asking better -- asking systematically. Strelve ties the review request to the only moment that matters: when the job is done and the customer is happiest.
How it flows
From job done to next lead -- all connected.
Completion protection -- each email fires once
The review request, reminder, and referral each have atomic send claims. Even if a manual dashboard send and an automated daily cron fire simultaneously, only one email goes out per stage. No duplicate asks.
How it works
Complete. Request. Remind. Refer.
Job marked complete
Operator marks the job as won and complete in the dashboard. Strelve detects the completion and queues the review request.
Review email sent automatically
Customer receives a branded email from your business asking for feedback. The CTA button links directly to your Google review page -- no extra clicks.
Follow-up reminder if needed
If no review after 7 days, a gentle reminder goes out. You control the copy and timing. Stops automatically when a review is left.
Referral ask triggers after review
Once the review is done, a referral email asks if they know someone who needs the same work. New leads flow straight into your estimator.
Setup in 4 steps
From review link to automated reputation in minutes.
Add your Google review link
Paste your Google review URL (g.page, maps.app.goo.gl, search.google.com/writereview, or Place ID) in Settings > Company. Strelve validates and canonicalises it automatically.
Customise the email template
Adjust subject, heading, body, and CTA text in Lead Emails > Review Requests. Use {{firstName}}, {{clientName}}, and {{businessName}} placeholders. Preview before saving.
Enable and test
Turn on the review request toggle. Submit a test lead, mark it won, and verify the email arrives with your branding and working link.
Optional: SMS review request
On Professional, a review text rides along with the email using your verified custom domain as a short link. Enable in Lead Emails > Review Requests.
What you get
Everything needed to compound reviews without the admin.
Automatic on job completion
No manual trigger needed. When you mark a lead as Won with a completion date, the review request queues instantly.
Branded email from your business
Email uses your logo, colours, and sender name. Customer sees it as coming from you -- not Strelve.
Smart link canonicalisation
Accepts any Google review URL format (Place ID, short links, Maps URLs, g.page) and converts to the direct writereview link.
7-day follow-up reminder
Optional reminder email if no review after a week. Stops automatically when review is detected via short-link click tracking.
Built-in referral loop
After the review, an automated referral email asks if they know someone who needs the same work. New leads enter your estimator.
SMS option on custom domain
The Professional plan can send a review text with a branded short link (yourdomain.co.nz/r/...) alongside the email.
Comparison
Manual asks vs systematic collection.
| Area | Manual process | Strelve review system |
|---|---|---|
| Trigger | Remember to email every completed customer | Automatic when job marked complete in dashboard |

| Follow-up | Rarely happens -- busy operators forget | Automated 7-day reminder if no review detected |
| Referral capture | Separate ask, often missed | Built-in referral email after review -- new leads flow to estimator |
| Brand consistency | Sent from personal email, inconsistent formatting | Your logo, colours, and voice on every request |
| Tracking | No visibility on who opened or clicked | Click tracking via short links, timeline in lead activity |
| SMS capability | Manual texting from personal phone | Automated branded text with short link (Professional) |
