Reputation & Reviews

More five-star reviews. Fewer surprises.

South Africans check reviews before they call, whether that's on Google, Facebook or Hellopeter. We make sure happy customers leave them and unhappy ones are handled fast.

Why it matters

Your reviews are your first sales conversation.

Before anyone phones a builder in Somerset West or books a spa in Umhlanga, they read the reviews. A 4.8 with recent reviews wins over a 4.2 with old ones almost every time.

Most happy customers never leave a review because nobody asks at the right moment. Most bad reviews get worse because nobody replies quickly.

Serving businesses in Cape Town, Johannesburg, Pretoria, Durban, Gqeberha, Bloemfontein, East London, Polokwane, Mbombela and everywhere in between.

What we did, what changed and what's next, without jargon.

Enquiries, not just clicks

We track calls, WhatsApps, bookings and sales, because that's what pays.

A named person

You deal with a real person who knows your business, not a ticket queue.

Questions

Reputation questions, answered.

Can you remove bad reviews?
We can't delete genuine reviews. We can report reviews that break platform rules, help you reply professionally and bury the occasional bad one under a steady flow of good ones.
Is it allowed to ask customers for reviews?
Yes, asking is fine. Offering rewards for reviews or only asking customers you know are happy goes against Google's rules, so we don't do that.
Do you cover Hellopeter?
Yes. We monitor Hellopeter and help you respond, because many South African consumers check it before buying.
How quickly will our rating improve?
Most businesses see new reviews within the first few weeks of automated requests. How fast the average moves depends on how many reviews you already have.
