DIY Google Review App for Small Businesses

A simple automated tool to help you get more Google Reviews — without agencies, complicated software, or follow-up stress.

Why Google Reviews Matter More Than Ever

Most small businesses don’t lose customers because of their work — they lose them because of how they show up online.

When someone searches your business, they judge three things instantly:

  • ⭐ your star rating
  • 📍 how many reviews you have
  • ⏳ how recent those reviews are

If your competitors look more active, they win the customer — even if you do better work.

Consistent Google reviews help your business:

  • rank higher on Google Maps
  • attract more calls and enquiries
  • build trust before someone contacts you
  • grow without needing ads

That’s why a simple, reliable review-request system is one of the highest-ROI improvements any local business can make.

The Easiest Way to Ask for Reviews (Consistently)

Most local businesses don’t struggle with the quality of their service — they struggle with staying consistent:

  • forgetting to send review requests
  • forgetting who they already asked
  • not having time to follow up
  • awkwardness around asking again

The Miss K Local DIY Google Review App solves all of that with one simple tool.

It works from your phone or tablet, takes 10 seconds per customer, and sends reminders automatically — so you never have to chase customers again.

What the DIY Review App Does

This is where the DIY Review App solves the follow-up problem for you.

Add the customer’s name + phone/email once — the app sends the request instantly.

Based on proven timing:

  • Day 1
  • Day 3
  • Day 7

No remembering. No follow-up stress.

So your customer can scan and add their review right away.

Your review tool looks like your business — not generic software.

Saved to your home screen. Tap → request sent.

An optional Google Sheet with a private log is provided so you can track the contact details and who the app has sent messages to.

This is a lightweight, practical review request app — perfect for busy local businesses.

Who This DIY App Is Perfect For

  • tradies & landscapers
  • cleaners & mobile services
  • salons & beauty professionals
  • dog groomers & pet services
  • cafés, retail, and local shops
  • allied health, clinics & wellness
  • ANY business that relies on word-of-mouth

If your business talks to customers every day, this app is your easiest way to turn those moments into reviews..

How the DIY Review App Works

No dashboards.
No complicated setup.
Just a simple tool so you don’t forget.

Step 1 — Ask the Customer Once

Simply ask at the end of the job/appointment or follow the scripts and timings suggested in the Review Booster Toolkit.

Step 2 — Add the Customer Details to the App

Enter their name + phone/email
OR
Have them scan your branded QR code.

Step 3 — The App Sends Everything Automatically

Initial review request is sent straight away by SMS or Email
(depending on what you selected).
A reminder is sent on Day 3, and on Day 7.
You don’t do anything else.

The Perfect Pair: Toolkit + Review App

The Review Booster Toolkit gives you all the scripts, templates, timing sequences, QR designs, and examples to get more reviews — the strategy.

The DIY Review App puts that strategy on autopilot — the tool.

Together, they help you:

  • ask at the perfect moment
  • send the right message
  • follow up without thinking about it
  • get consistent reviews every month

One-Time Setup Fee — $49 AUD

What makes our review app different from others is that each app is setup and customised for each business location. A real human (Miss K!) builds it — not a generic app builder. This setup will ensure that it has:

  • Your logo + brand colours
  • Your Google review link
  • Your QR code
  • Your review messaging
  • Complete integration + testing
  • Delivered in 1–3 business days

Multi-Location Businesses

If you operate from multiple locations, each site will need its own Google Review link — so we create a separate app for each location.

To keep this simple and affordable, you can add extra locations for:

  • + $10/month per location on DIY Lite
  • + $15/month per location on DIY Plus

There’s no extra setup fee, as long as all locations are added during your initial setup.

Want It Done For You Instead?

Not everyone wants to manage their own review system — and that’s okay.
If you’d prefer a hands-off option, Miss K Local offers a limited number of DFY review management spots each month.

This includes:

  • review monitoring + replies
  • profile updates
  • optimisation checks
  • hands-on support

Limited availability — best for busy operators who want a professional presence without adding extra work.


Notes & Important Information

  • SMS pricing varies by country. Your included allowance is based on average rates in AU/US/UK.
  • Additional SMS credits can be topped up anytime.
  • Review App setup requires 1–3 business days, as every app is manually customised.
  • Miss K Local is not affiliated with Google.
  • The DIY Review App is a lightweight review request tool — not a CRM or full automation platform.
