Simple surveys are review request templates that ask for first-party feedback, too.

Simple survey flows are available out of the box using the default request templates for “Star” or “Smiley” designs. (Additional “Star” and “Smiley” templates are also available to designate follow-up logic if necessary.) These templates do not allow for any customization to the survey and are designed for an easy, out-of-the-box feedback request (first-party) with follow-up review requesting (third-party).

Template Options

There are two simple survey template options: the “Star” and the “Smiley” survey. The first question of the survey is embedded directly in the email message.

Star Rating

Sentiment (Smiley)

The recipient enters the flow specified by the template. Here’s an example of the flow for a positive sentiment and for a negative sentiment:

Review Requesting

At the end of the simple survey flow (regardless of template chosen), the consumer is presented with options to copy their survey feedback to a third-party review for posting publicly. You can choose which review site options are available within the request settings.

Consumers who choose Google as the request option will not be required to copy/paste their feedback into the form. Instead, the rating and comment are automatically captured from the survey and populated in the Google review box, which is posted directly to Google from the Reputation.com platform. Sending from our platform (as opposed to pushing the reviewer to Google’s system) improves the ability to attribute reviews to requests.

Review Syndication

You can optionally publish ratings generated from simple survey requests to your My Reputation syndication page.
