  • Operators that send one consistent public review link to every eligible customer.
  • Teams with a monitored reply path for immediate service recovery.

Not Best For

When To Send This Email

Trigger

A residential HVAC job is marked complete, the invoice status is valid, and no unresolved service issue is recorded.

Timing

Send within 2-24 hours of job completion while the visit and technician interaction are still fresh.

Frequency

Send once per completed job; do not repeatedly request a review for the same visit.

Timing note

Pause the request when the customer has reported a problem and route that case to service recovery.

Why This Email Works

Personalization Notes

  • Insert the completed service type and technician name from the closed job, not free-form automation text.
  • Use the same public review link for all eligible customers regardless of satisfaction signals.
  • Route replies to a monitored service-recovery inbox with a named owner.

Platform Setup Steps

Trigger

Completed-job event with a valid customer email and no open callback, complaint, or warranty issue.

Segment

Residential customers whose service visit closed successfully and who have not received a request for that job.

Delay

2-24 hours after completion, after field notes and invoice status synchronize.

  1. Verify job completion, technician, service type, and review-request history.
  2. Send the same review link to every eligible customer and record the request timestamp.
  3. Create an immediate service-recovery task when the customer replies with a concern.

Stop conditions

  • Stop if a complaint, callback, refund, charge dispute, or warranty issue opens before send.
  • Stop after one request for the completed job or when the customer opts out.
  • Do not branch access to the review link based on a satisfaction score or survey response.

Compliance / Risk Notes

  • Do not review-gate: all eligible customers must have the same opportunity to use the public review link.
  • Do not offer compensation for a positive rating or prescribe what rating the customer should leave.
  • Use accurate technician and service details and honor email consent and opt-out requirements.

Subject Line Variations

  • How did {{technician_name}} do today?

    A named technician makes the request immediate and human.

  • A quick question about today's {{service_type}}

    Use when service type is more recognizable than the technician name.

  • Would you share your experience with {{company_name}}?

    A clear fallback for jobs completed by multiple team members.

Mistakes To Avoid

  • Sending only to customers predicted to be happy

    Selective review solicitation can violate platform policies and distorts feedback.

    Use instead: Use objective job-completion eligibility and the same link for every recipient.

  • Automating through an open service problem

    A review ask during a callback or complaint signals that the CRM is not listening.

    Use instead: Suppress the request and create a service-recovery task first.

    Not best for: teams that need native technician dispatch, route optimization, job costing, equipment history, or service-agreement operations

    View GoHighLevel
  • established home-service organizations that need scheduling, dispatch, job, customer, equipment, and service-agreement operations in one field-service platform

    Not best for: solo operators that only need lightweight scheduling, quoting, and follow-up
