The problem
When a breaker keeps tripping, people search 'electrician near me' and call one of the first three with recent, good reviews. Small electrical shops do plenty of good work and rarely ask for reviews, so the profile goes stale. If steadier reviews brought in 3 extra service calls a month at a $420£316€376A$606C$594 average ticket, that's $1,260£947€1,127A$1,819C$1,781 of work a month.
What the AI does
NiceJob automates review requests and follow-ups by text and email, shows your reviews on your website with widgets, posts them to social media and gives you a reviews page. It connects to field service and accounting software through its App Marketplace, so finished jobs can trigger a request. The Pro plan adds AI-written replies to reviews and campaigns to bring back past customers.
A worked example
An illustrative example built from typical figures, not a named business.
A three-electrician shop in Nashville, Tennessee finishes about 60 service calls a month and has 52 Google reviews, few from this year. They start NiceJob Starter, connect it to their job software and send a request after every finished job.
Before
Requests only when someone remembers, about 1 new review a month
After
A request after every job; several new reviews a month and about 3 extra service calls
What it's worth
About $500£376€447A$722C$707 a month in profit, at an assumed 40% margin on $1,260£947€1,127A$1,819C$1,781 of extra work (3 more service calls at $420£316€376A$606C$594), rounded down. That is against $75£56€67A$108C$106 a month for NiceJob Starter. The extra calls are an assumption; ask new customers how they found you to test it.
How to set it up
- Start NiceJob's 14-day free trial on Starter ($75£56€67A$108C$106 a month, no contract).
- Check its App Marketplace for your job software and connect it so finished jobs trigger the request.
- Edit the request so it sounds like you and names the electrician who did the work.
- Only text customers who agreed to texts, and keep STOP working, as the TCPA requires. NiceJob's page doesn't mention 10DLC registration; ask them how texts are sent.
- Reply to every review within a few days, especially the unhappy ones.
What goes wrong
- Google bars offering anything for a review, and the FTC's rule on consumer reviews bans rewards that depend on a positive one. Ask every customer, not only the happy ones.
- AI-written replies need Pro ($125£94€112A$180C$177 a month).
- Reviews mention names and addresses sometimes. Never confirm private details about a job in a public reply.
