Google Maps reviews for artisans: 7 ways to get 50 in 6 months

Google Maps reviews are the largest 'free investment' a local artisan can make: every positive review builds your local SEO ranking. But asking is an art: too aggressive annoys, too shy gets nothing. Here are 7 methods that work in Italy.

7 ethical methods

  • QR code on packaging + flyer + email follow-up
  • Verbal request at workshop end (35-45% conversion)
  • Automated T+1 day email (18-25% conversion)
  • Workshop+social contest (monthly free workshop draw)
  • Note in shipped package for finished pieces
  • Reply to ALL existing reviews within 48h
  • Ask B2B clients (corporate team building)
