Google reviews for AC, cleaning, maintenance and more in the UAE

More Google reviews.
More calls. More jobs.

Customers in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah call the business with the better Google profile. StarsFirst sends every customer a review request on WhatsApp when the job is done, and we look after your Google Business Profile, so the calls and the jobs come to you.

WhatsApp sending is being switched on now. Until it is live, review requests go out by e-mail to customers who give you their e-mail address.

  • Google profile care included
  • 100 QR business cards, printed in the UAE
  • No contract, no app to install

The problem

Your work is great. Your Google profile does not show it.

Your customers are happy. You show up and you do the job right. The reviews are missing because nobody asked.

01

Few reviews

Hundreds of jobs a year across villas and apartments, and a handful of reviews to show for it. New customers see the handful.

02

No time to ask

You are on the tools all day and writing quotes at night. Chasing customers for a review is the first thing that gets dropped.

03

Hard to find on Google

Someone in Dubai searches for AC repair near them. The businesses with many recent reviews are listed first and get the call.

The business name and the numbers on the cards are examples.

Why reviews

Jobs without ads or lead fees

Reviews are one of the few things that bring you jobs without buying ads or paying for leads. Collecting them took time you do not have. We take that work off you.

More calls come to you

A customer comparing three businesses sees your rating and your number of reviews first. A strong, recent set of reviews makes yours the easy call.

Trust before you show up

Reviews from real customers answer the question every new customer has: can I let this person into my home?

More jobs, more revenue

Every job that comes in through Google is a job you did not pay a lead fee for. Work it out with your own numbers below.

Enter your own numbers. The two values are only an example.

Additional revenue per year

AED 19,200

The plan costs AED 3,588 per year. That is 5.4 times what you pay.

This is your own estimate, not a promise. How many customers find you through Google depends on your area and your trade.

After every job

One week. Three polite messages at most.

You choose the days and the hours in your settings. Reminders stop the moment the customer opens the link.

  1. Today

    The request goes out

    About an hour after you add the customer, they get a short message with a link to your Google review form.

  2. Day 3

    A reminder, if needed

    Customers who have not opened the link get one friendly reminder. Those who have are left alone.

  3. Day 7

    One last reminder, then it stops

    After the second reminder the customer hears nothing more about it, and is not asked again for six months.

Features

Asking for reviews, without the asking

The work happens in the background. You keep doing the jobs.

Timed reminders

Up to two reminders on the days you choose. They end the moment the customer opens the link.

On WhatsApp, where your customers are

In the UAE people answer WhatsApp long before e-mail. The request arrives as a short WhatsApp message that names your business, with the link to your Google review form.

Hi Aisha, thank you for choosing Cool Breeze AC. If you have a minute, we would appreciate your honest feedback on Google: starsfirst.com/r/k3Tz9Qa Reply STOP to opt out. Sent via StarsFirst.

WhatsApp sending is being switched on now. Until it is live, review requests go out by e-mail to customers who give you their e-mail address.

Daytime only

Messages go out inside the hours you set, in UAE time. Nothing arrives at night.

One ask per customer

A customer who was asked is not asked again for six months by default.

Opt-outs are final

A customer who replies STOP is taken off your list and stays off it.

Logins for office and crew

Your office and your techs add customers from their own phones. Only you change settings and billing.

We look after your Google Business Profile

Reviews land on your Google profile, so the profile has to be right. A person on our crew keeps it that way. You do not pay extra for it.

  • A full check when you start

    We go through categories, service area, opening hours, services, description and contact details and correct what is missing or wrong.

  • Your job photos, kept current

    Send us photos of finished jobs, your truck and your crew. We add them to the profile and replace the ones that are out of date.

  • Changes on request

    Holiday hours, a new service, a bigger service area. Send us an e-mail and we update the profile for you.

  • Replies to your reviews

    We write a reply to each new Google review in your business name. Until Google lets us post for you, it comes ready to paste.

  • A monthly look

    Once a month we check that the information is still complete and correct, and tell you if something needs your attention.

You add us as a manager of your profile. You stay the owner and can remove us at any time.

100 business cards with your QR code

The message reaches the customer later. The card reaches them while you are still standing there.

  • Hand one to every customer when the job is done.
  • They scan it with their phone and land on your Google review form, right at the door.
  • Your name, your colour and your UAE number on the card, made for you when you sign up.
  • The QR code stays yours: if your Google link ever changes, the printed cards keep working.
  • Printed in the UAE and delivered to your business address, plus a print-ready file in your account.

Fair play

Straight with your customers and with Google

Reviews only help if they are real and stay up. So we do this the way Google allows.

No review gating

We do not sort customers by how satisfied they are. Everyone gets the same link to the public review form, as Google requires.

No incentives

The messages offer nothing in return for a review. Google does not allow it, and reviews won that way can be removed.

Only what is needed

We store the first name, the mobile number or e-mail address, and the time the customer agreed. Nothing about the job, the address or the invoice.

Pricing

One plan, one price

Review requests and the care of your Google Business Profile, for one monthly price. No setup fee and no contract.

FAQ

Questions business owners ask before they start

Something missing? Write to support@starsfirst.com.

How do customers receive the request?

WhatsApp sending is being switched on now. Until it is live, review requests go out by e-mail to customers who give you their e-mail address. Once WhatsApp is live, customers with a UAE mobile number get the request on WhatsApp, with nothing to change on your side. The message names your business and contains a link that opens your Google review form directly.

Do I need a CRM or scheduling software?

No. There is nothing to install or connect. When a job is done, you type the customer into a short form on your phone. If you already use software for scheduling or invoicing, this simply runs next to it.

What does looking after my Google Business Profile include?

A full check of the profile when you start, adding and replacing the job photos you send us, changes on request such as holiday hours or a new service, and a look once a month to see that everything is still correct. It is part of the monthly price.

How do the business cards work?

100 business cards with a QR code are included once per account. We make them for you when you sign up: enter your company name, your UAE phone number and your emirate, check the card and approve it, and we have them printed in the UAE and delivered to your business address. You can also download the print-ready file. A customer scans the QR code with the phone camera and lands on your Google review form. The code works for as long as your subscription is active, and if your Google link changes, the printed cards keep working.

Do you need the password to my Google account?

No. You add us as a manager of your Google Business Profile. You stay the owner and can remove us at any time.

Will more reviews really bring more jobs?

We cannot promise a number. What Google itself says is that more reviews and positive ratings can help your local ranking, and customers comparing businesses look at reviews first. You can estimate what additional jobs are worth to you with the calculator on this page.

Do you filter out unhappy customers?

No. Every customer gets the same link to the public Google review form. Sending only satisfied customers to Google is called review gating and Google does not allow it.

Can I offer a discount or a gift for a review?

No. Google does not allow reviews in exchange for incentives, and the message texts are fixed so that this cannot happen by accident.

How many messages does a customer get?

At most three per request: the first message and up to two reminders. Reminders stop when the customer opens the link. After a request, the same customer is not asked again for six months unless you shorten that period.

What if a customer does not want these messages?

Every message says how to opt out. A customer who opts out is taken off your list and is not contacted again. You can also mark a customer as "do not contact" by hand.

Does the customer need to agree first?

Yes. You confirm for every request that the customer agreed to be contacted about a review. Without that confirmation the request cannot be saved.

Can my office and my techs add customers too?

Yes. You can give everyone their own login at no extra cost. They can add customers; only you can change the settings and the billing.

When are messages sent?

Only inside the hours you set, in UAE time. The default is 9 AM to 8 PM. A request added late in the day goes out the next morning.

Is the price in dirham?

Yes. StarsFirst costs AED 299 per month for one business, charged monthly in UAE dirham through Stripe. There is no setup fee and no contract.

I have more than one location. How does that work?

Each location with its own Google Business Profile needs its own account, because reviews belong to one profile.

How do I cancel?

In your account under Settings, Billing. The subscription ends at the close of the paid month and no further messages are sent after that.

Ask every customer, starting this week

Create your account, paste your Google review link and add the customer from your next job. We take care of your Google profile from there.
