Okendo Review Request Flow SOP

Okendo's review request flow defaults work for most categories. Most brands accept defaults and miss 20-30 percent of possible reviews by not tuning timing and incentive. This SOP closes that gap.

Why this SOP matters

Reviews drive conversion. Brands with 100+ reviews per product convert 15-20 percent higher than brands with 10 reviews. Collection rate is the input.

Step-by-step SOP

  1. 1

    Set request trigger to 7-14 days post-delivery

    Not post-purchase. Customer needs the product in hand.

  2. 2

    Customize timing per category

    Consumables: 14-21 days. Apparel: 7 days. Electronics: 10 days.

  3. 3

    Configure attribute questions

    Size accuracy, fit, value for money. Each becomes a structured insight in product analytics.

  4. 4

    Set up media-collection incentive

    Higher incentive for photo or video reviews. Visual reviews convert 3x better than text-only.

  5. 5

    Add second-chance reminder 5 days after initial

    One reminder maximum. Two feels desperate.

  6. 6

    Exclude refunded customers

    Don't ask for reviews from customers who returned the product.

  7. 7

    Connect Okendo to Shopify product reviews app

    Required for Google Shopping integration. Reviews show in Google product results.

  8. 8

    Monitor monthly collection rate

    Target 15-25 percent of delivered orders converting to reviews. Below 10 means flow needs work.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • ×Triggering off Order Placed instead of Order Delivered
  • ×Skipping the Shopify reviews app connection (loses Google product search visibility)
  • ×Not excluding refunded customers, asking unhappy customers to review
  • ×Multiple reminder emails (one is fine, two is too many)
  • ×Not tuning attribute questions to product category

FAQ

Okendo vs Yotpo for reviews?

Okendo for cleaner UX and easier setup. Yotpo for enterprise features and bundled loyalty. Choose by brand size and feature need.

What collection rate is good for Okendo?

15-25 percent is excellent. Above 25 percent is rare without aggressive incentives. Below 10 percent and tune timing.

Should I offer review incentives?

Yes, small discount on next order. Disclose the incentive (FTC requirement). Okendo handles disclosure automatically.

I built ReccordSOP after watching too many DTC ops teams lose months to undocumented workflows. These SOPs are battle-tested with Shopify operators running $1M to $50M brands.
