One review can book your next wedding.
Ovation asks clients for a review once the event is over, replies to every review in your voice, and writes posts for your latest work, so the next couple scrolling at midnight picks you.

That day, the couple gets a note asking how they love their photos, with a link to leave a review.

Next week, you post a few favorites (with their permission) after Ovation writes the caption.
Ask at the moment clients are happiest.
Send review requests by hand or from a client list when you deliver the photos, flowers or final invoice. If clients pay through a connected payment system, requests can go out automatically on the delay you choose.
Replies worth reading for the next couple.

When to ask for the review
Ask when you deliver the finished work, not on the day of the event. That's when clients are most excited. Send the request by hand or from a list at delivery.

My clients pay in installments. When does the request go out?
You decide. Many event pros send requests by hand when they deliver the final work, rather than tying them to a payment.
Can I post photos from an event?
Ovation writes the captions and you choose what to post. Get your clients' permission before sharing their photos.
Which review sites does Ovation work with?
Google, where most people check reviews before choosing a local business. Ovation also checks that your details are correct on Yelp, Apple Maps, Bing and other directories.
Do I need to change my point-of-sale or payment system?
No. Ovation connects to the payment system you already use to know when someone has been a customer. If yours isn't supported yet, you can still send review requests by hand or from a customer list.
I have more than one location. Does that work?
Yes. Each location gets its own reviews, review link, request timing and rankings, and you manage them all from one login. The Team plan covers 2 to 10 locations.
How long does setup take?
Most event businesses are up and running in a few minutes: connect Google and Facebook, connect your payment system if you have one, and choose your reply settings.
