Setup Steps
1
Choose Your Approach
Your approach decides what customers are asked for and what the feedback form does after they submit.
- Feedback, then Google: recommended. Customers rate their visit privately, then every one of them is offered a Google review.
- Google review only: customers go straight to your Google review page. No rating is collected, so you learn nothing about unhappy customers.
- Private feedback only: customers rate and comment. Google is never mentioned and no review link is shown.
2
Connect Your Google Business Profile
Sign in with the Google account that already manages your business on Google, the one you use to reply to reviews or change your hours. A personal account that merely follows the business will not work.Review Agent reads your profiles and their reviews. It does not post, edit, or delete anything on your profile from this connection.
Your business does not appear in the list
Your business does not appear in the list
- You signed in with the wrong Google account. Only the account that owns or manages the profile can offer it.
- A recent invitation to manage the profile has not been accepted in Google yet.
- The profile is unverified. An unverified business has no public review page, so verify it with Google first.
If you chose Private feedback only, this step and the next one are optional and can be skipped.
3
Map Your Locations
Pair each Dripos location on the left with the Google profile it belongs to on the right. Profile names are set in Google and do not always match your location names, so match on the address.
4
Brand Your Feedback Form
Two settings control how the form looks to a customer:
- Logo: displayed small and centered at the top of the form, so a square or near-square image reproduces best.
- Accent color: applied to the brand band and the submit button. Without one, the form uses a default green.
5
Customize Your Messages
Edit the wording of the email and the text message that carry the request.
- The email has a subject line and a body, and has room for context about the visit.
- The text message is a single short message. The link takes up part of the available length, and carriers split longer texts into multiple segments.
6
Preview Before You Activate
The phone preview beside the approach cards renders your real logo, color, question wording, rating scale, and email. Pick a high rating to walk the Google path, then start over and pick a low one to see the comment box.Nothing entered in the preview is stored against a customer or counted in your metrics.
The preview resolves a review page for one location only. It does not confirm that your other locations are mapped.
7
Activate
Finish setup with sending turned on and requests begin going out to customers who qualify from that point forward.
Email and Text Requests
Enabling both channels does not send two requests. A customer is asked once per visit, and responding on either channel closes the request. A customer with no mobile number receives the email instead, as long as email is enabled.Pausing Requests
The Messages step has a switch that controls whether review requests go out. Turning it off keeps your approach, branding, and message wording intact.- No new requests start, and requests already waiting to send are skipped.
- The dashboard shows a banner while requests are off, with a Turn on requests button.
- Customers whose visits happened while requests were off are not asked later.
- A reminder that was already scheduled still goes out if requests are back on by the time it is due.
