Operations Engine

Review and Reputation Engine

Consistent reviews after every completed job. Unhappy customers caught before they post publicly. A Google profile that builds trust and visibility without the owner managing it.

Starts at $2,000 setup / $600 per month operated by Momentiv

The Problem

The Gap

Your crew finishes 15 jobs this month. Two customers leave a review. Your competitor across town finishes the same number and gets 10. Six months from now, they own the top spot in the local map pack and you’re wondering where the calls went. The work is good. The reviews don’t reflect it because nobody is asking at the right time, in the right way, through the right channel.

The Math

What a Weak Review Profile Costs

87%

of consumers use Google to evaluate local businesses

Before a homeowner calls you, they check your reviews. Your star rating, review count, and recency are the first filter. If your profile looks thin or stale, you don’t make the shortlist.

73%

only trust reviews from the last 30 days

A wall of five-star reviews from two years ago does not build trust. Prospects want to see recent proof that your business is still delivering. Review velocity matters as much as review volume.

80 website visits

driven by each additional Google review

Every new review generates approximately 80 website visits, 63 direction requests, and 16 phone calls. Consistent review generation is a measurable growth channel, not a vanity metric.

The Fix

The System

Every completed job triggers a review request. Happy customers are sent to Google. Unhappy customers are intercepted and routed to a private resolution path before anything goes public.

What We Build

  • Automated review request via SMS and email after job completion

  • Smart timing rules based on job type and customer segment

  • Private issue-resolution flow that intercepts negative sentiment before it reaches Google

  • Owner-approved response draft templates for incoming reviews

  • Review velocity dashboard tracking rating trend, weekly volume, and keyword highlights

  • Best-practice guardrails to keep the Google Business Profile in good standing

Requirements

Required Inputs and Fit

What we need from you

  • Google Business Profile access

  • CRM or field service management access to identify job completion triggers

  • How you currently mark jobs as complete (status field, manual update, etc.)

  • Preferred review request timing per job type

  • Any existing review response templates or tone guidance

  • List of any review platforms beyond Google you want to target

Who this is for

Built for owner-led home services businesses completing 10+ jobs per month with a review volume that doesn’t match the quality of their work. If your competitors have more reviews and a higher rating despite doing the same caliber of work, this is the engine that closes the gap.

Implementation

Implementation and Ongoing Operations

This engine is available in two tiers based on your review volume goals and the level of personalization you need. Both tiers begin with a custom Launch Sprint and transition immediately into a monthly operations retainer.

The Automation Build

This is a deterministic, rule-based system. Every completed job triggers a pre-written review request at the right time through the right channel. Happy customers go to Google. Unhappy customers get intercepted and routed to you privately.

The AI Agent Build

The AI writes review requests personalized to the actual job, referencing the technician and the specific service performed. That personal touch gets more reviews. Negative sentiment is detected automatically and diverted before it hits Google, with an AI-drafted response tailored to each complaint.

The Management Retainer

Systems break when they are abandoned. Your setup fee covers the custom build. From there, this engine is maintained through a monthly operations retainer. We handle the optimization, the reporting, and the technical oversight so you can focus on running your crews. All engine installations begin with a 90-day initial commitment to ensure baseline stability.

Complementary Systems

Pairs Well With

Lead Response Engine

Capture every inbound lead, then request a review after the job is done. The two engines create a closed loop from first contact to public proof.

Customer Reactivation Engine

Past customers who had a great experience are the highest-probability review candidates. Reactivation outreach primes the review request.

Reputation Content Engine

Turns incoming positive reviews into ready-to-post social content and website testimonials automatically.

Local Demand Engine (Google LSAs)

A strong review profile directly improves your LSA ranking and cost per lead. The two engines compound each other.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Timing is configured during setup based on your preferences and job type. Same-day, next-day, and custom delays are all supported. The right timing depends on your trade. An HVAC repair customer who just got their heat back is ready to review immediately. A remodeling customer may need a few days to appreciate the finished work.

Yes. We integrate directly with ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro, Jobber, and the GoHighLevel ecosystem. The trigger is based on how your system marks jobs as complete.

The Automation version sends the same pre-written message to every customer after every job. It’s fast, consistent, and effective. The AI Agent version personalizes each request based on the specific job, technician, and service performed. Personalized asks consistently outperform generic ones on response rate.

Both versions include a private interception path. If a customer indicates they’re not satisfied, they’re routed to a private resolution flow instead of being sent to Google. You get notified immediately so you can address the issue before it becomes a public review.

No. The system is built with Google’s guidelines in mind. We never incentivize reviews, never gate by sentiment before asking, and never post on behalf of customers. Every request is a genuine ask sent to every customer consistently.

Yes. Response templates and AI-drafted replies are delivered to you for approval before anything is posted publicly. You control the voice.

Review volume, recency, and rating are confirmed ranking factors in Google’s local algorithm. Businesses with consistent new reviews outrank businesses with older, stagnant profiles regardless of total review count. This engine directly feeds that signal.

That’s a common starting point. The engine is designed to build velocity from wherever you are. Even moving from 2 reviews per month to 6 creates a meaningful competitive shift in most local markets within 90 days.
