4 Free Tools to Remind Guests to Write Reviews

83% of travelers say Tripadvisor reviews help them feel more confident in their travel decisions1. So how can you collect more reviews? Here are four free tools to help you remind guests to write reviews of your business.

Reminding your guests to write a review is an easy way to build your reputation on Tripadvisor and in turn, get more exposure for your property. Use these free tools – available in the Management Center – to remind guests to write a review while their experience is still fresh in their minds.

1. Custom Reminder Cards

Creating your custom business card-sized reminder cards is easy, follow these simple steps:

  1. Under the “Marketing Tools” tab in your Management Center select “Promotional Tools
  2. Select “Order Now” under Business Cards
  3. Choose “Business Cards” in our promotional shop
  4. Click on the reminder cards that fit your business to customize the cards. Be sure to add your business name and city to the back side of the cards. 

Once you’re pleased with your cards, send them off to print! The first 100 cards are on us; you only pay for shipping (typically $6 – $10).

Tip: Distribute these cards at checkout, the end of a meal, or when the tour comes to an end to remind guests to write a review when they return home. 

2. Reminder Flyer

Another great way to ask your guests to write about their experience is to hand out our downloadable flyer. The downloadable flyer can also be found in your Management Center. Under “Marketing Tools” in the top menu, select “Promotional Tools” and click “Download Now” under Downloadable Assets. The flyer is available in many languages, for your guests visiting from all over the world.
