What to avoid

• Don't ask for five stars or a glowing review, because an honest one is what you want.
• Offering a discount or gift for a review is risky unless the platform's rules clearly allow it.
• Guilt lines like “we'd be so disappointed if you didn't” push people away, so skip them.
• A reason or two and one clear link work better than a long paragraph.
• One polite reminder is the limit, and after that leave the person alone.
