Home cleaning companies · Review generation
Ask at the final walk-through, while the bathroom is still wet.
Getting reviews written is its own job in home cleaning, separate from answering the ones already there. The customer is standing in a flat that looks the way it will never look again, and that is the ninety seconds in which a review gets written. GullySales fixes who asks, when, and what the customer is asked to mention.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What review generation means
Review generation is the routine of asking satisfied customers to leave a Google or platform review at the moment they are happiest, rather than hoping they remember later. GullySales builds the request into your existing follow-up steps and tracks how many turn into a review.

For home cleaning companies
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The walk-through is the ask, and it lasts about a minute”
The customer follows the supervisor through the flat, opens the bathroom door and sees the tiles. Ask then, with the link ready. An hour later she is unpacking and the moment is gone.
“The supervisor asks, never the cleaner”
A customer will not refuse the woman standing in her kitchen, and will not write anything either, and the cleaner is left wondering whether she has just asked for a favour instead of the tip. Keep the ask with whoever is running the job.
“A recurring customer's review is worth more than a one-off's”
The thing every new customer is frightened of is a different stranger turning up each week. A review that says the same two women have come for a year answers that fear before anybody has to ask about it.
What we do
What we deliver for home cleaning companies.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A walk-through routine with the ask built in
The order the supervisor walks the rooms, the point at which the review is requested, and the link or code carried on the job sheet.
Result: The ask happens on site instead of being remembered later.
Prompts that get the job and the area named
Two or three short lines given to the customer, so the review says move-out deep clean in a named locality rather than good service.
Result: New reviews carry the words the next customer searches for.
A separate ask for contract customers
A different request made to households on recurring cleaning, pointing at the same staff returning and the visits being kept, not at one spotless day.
Result: Your reviews answer the trust question, not only the quality one.
Reply wording for a breakage or a missed corner
Ready replies for the two complaints this trade always gets, stating what was done about it, agreed before a bad review turns up rather than typed in a panic.
Result: A complaint reads as a company that fixed it.
Review counts kept by job type
New reviews split by deep clean, sofa and upholstery, move-out and recurring contract, measured against the count recorded before the work started.
Result: You can see which crews and which jobs produce reviews.
How the result is measured
- Reviews received
- Average rating
- Response rate to requests
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
Asking for reviews the right way
Ask at the final walk-through, with the flat clean and the supervisor standing beside the customer.
- Room by room, then the ask
- Ask once the customer has gone through every room and nodded. Before that they are inspecting, and after the team leaves nobody is standing in the clean flat.
- Link saved on the supervisor's phone
- Keep the review link saved as a contact on each supervisor's phone, with a laminated QR card in the kit, so the supervisor can ask without fumbling for the address.
- Job and corner named
- Suggest the customer write the job and the area, like kitchen chimney degreasing or a post-renovation dust clean. A buyer searching for the same job reads for it.
- Committee secretaries and admin heads
- For a society or office contract, ask the committee secretary or the admin head, and request a reference letter alongside the Google review.
- Photographs only with permission
- Ask before photographing a home, and keep nameplates, family photographs and valuables out of the frame. Use only what the customer agrees to.
- Missed corners are fixed first
- If the customer points out a missed corner or a stain that remains, fix it on the spot or book a revisit before saying a word about reviews.

How it works
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.
First
Your brief
You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.
After the brief
A conversation and a written scope
We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.
Before work starts
Baseline recorded
The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.
After the baseline
The first fix goes live
The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.
As agreed
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.
At renewal
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.
How the review generation work runs
- 1
Understand the customer journey
We identify one fixed point in your service, such as handover or checkout, where every customer is asked in the same way.
- 2
Read your current reviews
We read every review you have, count how many were answered, and note what customers praise in their own words.
- 3
Set up the ask process
Templates and a simple sending process are built into your existing customer communication.
- 4
Implement responses
Every incoming review, positive or negative, is responded to by the routine set down in writing after we have spoken to you.
- 5
Measure and adjust
We track review volume and rating trend and adjust the ask timing if response rates are low.
Why us
Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.
Marketing and sales, as one job
Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.
The person on the first call does the work
No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.
A baseline before anything starts
Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.
The fee in writing, split three ways
Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.
No guarantees we cannot keep
The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.
