Email your customer list to your New Workflow Solutions (NWS) team. It should include the First Name, Last Name, Phone number and Email. Additional fields you send will be included in the Contacts table.

Determine if you’ll be sending texts or emails or both.
Will you include a drawing for a prize or some other incentive when asking for a review?

If the customer clicks the link ({{ custom_values.review_request_link }}), they are taken to a page like this:
If they click on ‘5 stars’ they are taken to the Google site where they can complete the review. The new 5-star Google review is immediately added to your Google reviews list. (Yea!)
If they click on ‘4 stars’ or less, then get this page:
They can then enter their comments and click Next, which will email their responses to you. The lower score will not be counted in your Google reviews.
