Managing bad reviews and how to reduce them with proactive communication.

Actions needed to stop bad reviews

Send a SMS after each new client is service. A call is ok, but is not as effective.

Within jobber activate to collect feedback after the job is closed.

If thereā€™s an issue schedule a redo immediately or manager visit Ā before it gets out of your hands.

When should we be bothered? Letā€™s look at a system to avoid getting bothered as a business owner every day with complaints.

Levels of Complaints

Level 1: Simple/quick REDO is always the first option. Or, small refund under $25 to cover time to redo cleaning tasks.

Level 2: Client wants someone to come back, then Customer Service Agent will offer the client a redo at no cost. If the client rejects the REDO and demands a refund of more than $50 we will schedule the field manager to come and check the job before granting the refund.

Level 3: Client is very mad, they request more than 50% of the money back, is threatening to leave bad reviews wishes to speak to an Owner.

Manage company data so nothing falls through the cracks.

Four places to keep company data:

  • Your Head.
  • Your Google Drive.
  • Local Computer.
  • On the cloud with Pipehire: reminders, alerts, expired docs.
