The review request flow is the single biggest input to your average review collection rate. Brands at 5 percent collection rate are leaving 30 to 50 percent of possible reviews on the table. This SOP standardizes the request flow for maximum collection without burning customer relationships.
Reviews drive conversion. Brands with 100+ reviews per product convert at 15 to 20 percent higher rates. Reviews also feed Google product results. Doubling your collection rate doubles your review-driven conversion.
Not post-purchase. Post-delivery means the customer has had the product. Below 7 days they haven't formed an opinion. Above 21 and you've lost momentum.
Consumables: 14-21 days (they've used it). Apparel: 7 days (they've worn it). Electronics: 10 days (they've set it up).
Photo of their product, short ask, one-click rating widget. No multi-step landing page.
10 to 20 percent off next order for verified review. Yotpo handles the code. Don't incentivize 5-star reviews specifically (FTC violation). Incentivize any review.
Higher incentive (15 to 25 percent off) for reviews with photos. Photo reviews convert 3x better than text-only.
Send one reminder 5 days after the initial request if no response. Two reminders maximum. Three feels desperate.
Customers who returned the product shouldn't get review requests. Set the filter explicitly in Yotpo.
Target: 15 to 25 percent of delivered orders convert to reviews. Below 10 percent means flow needs work.
Record your screen while performing the yotpo review request flow. ReccordSOP turns the recording into a SOP with timestamped screenshots. When your live setup changes, drift detection flags it.
Generate this SOP free7 to 14 days post-delivery for most products. Consumables can extend to 21 days. Apparel can be as short as 5 days.
Yes. Discount on next order works best. Disclose the incentive on the request (FTC compliance). Yotpo handles compliance text automatically.
15 to 25 percent is excellent. 10 to 15 percent is average. Below 10 percent means your flow or incentive needs work.
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.
