Invoice-Triggered Google Review Assistant

Small businesses BCC one email address and automatically ask customers for Google reviews

Problem

Small business owners don't know how to get customers to leave Google reviews and just hope happy ones remember. Meanwhile, real reviews on Yelp/Google get falsely marked as 'not recommended,' and merchants have no recourse.

Solution

The merchant BCCs a dedicated email address on invoices; the next day the system automatically sends the customer a short email asking for a Google review, with one reminder if they don't click. A dashboard tracks sends, clicks, and review conversion, with optional customer filtering by service type.

Users

US-based small local businesses that depend on foot traffic: repair, cleaning, beauty, food, health clinics—owners who invoice or close out customers and need reviews.

MVP

Generate a dedicated BCC email address; parse incoming invoice emails to extract customer emails; send invitation email plus one reminder; simple dashboard showing conversion; Google review link generator.

Revenue

Monthly subscription (~$9–$19/mo) tiered by send volume; free tier limited to 20 emails per month.

Why now

Local businesses rely more than ever on Google reviews, and platform filtering makes them anxious. The email-trigger flow is simple with no complex integrations, so one person can ship a usable version in a few weeks.
