## prompt 01 · step 2 · Scrape and filter for review pain

use my google places api key to pull every [niche] in [city]. save name, address, phone, rating, review count, place id, and the owner's name if it appears in their review replies. filter to rating 4.0 or higher, fewer than 50 reviews, and a phone number listed. put it in a google sheet called "[niche] [city] reviews" and show me the count.

## prompt 02 · step 3 · Pull the competitor numbers

for [niche] in [city], find the 3 businesses with the most google reviews. for every business on my "[niche] [city] reviews" sheet, add the name and review count of the closest top competitor within [x] miles. then add a column with the line: "you have [their count] reviews. [competitor name] has [competitor count]." show me the sheet and wait for my approval on who to mail.

## prompt 03 · step 4 · Make the personalized card photo

a realistic photo of a friendly woman in her 30s sitting at a wooden desk in a bright home office, holding up a white handwritten card toward the camera with both hands. the card says in blue pen: "hi [owner or business name], you deserve way more reviews." natural window light, shallow depth of field, shot on a phone, the handwriting clearly readable.

## prompt 04 · step 4 · Make the personalized card photo

for every approved business, generate one photo with the chatgpt image model using this prompt: [paste your image prompt], swapping in the owner's first name if we have it and the business name if we don't. keep the person, desk, and lighting identical across every image. check that the name on the card is spelled correctly in each one, regenerate any that aren't, and show me the first 5.

## prompt 05 · step 5 · Build the live SMS demo

for every approved business, build a demo page with their name at the top and this line: "text [code] to [my twilio number] and see exactly what your customers would get." give each business a short unique code. when a text with that code arrives, reply within a few seconds with: "hi! thanks for choosing [business name]. would you mind leaving us a quick review? it really helps. [direct review link built from their place id]". then message me that [business name] tried the demo.

## prompt 06 · step 6 · Send the postcard

design a 6x9 postcard for each approved business. front: their card photo, full bleed. back: the line "you have [x] reviews. [competitor] has [y]." in large text, then "scan to see how you catch up" with a qr code to their demo page, and my name and number: [your name], [your number]. show me 3 samples. after i approve, send the batch through my [lob / postgrid / stannp] account and log every send in the sheet with the date.

## prompt 07 · step 7 · When they try the demo

every morning, send me a list of businesses that scanned their card or texted the demo in the last 24 hours, with their phone number and what they did. for anyone who scanned but didn't text after 3 days, draft one follow up: "hi, it's [your name], i sent the card about [business name]'s reviews. did you get a chance to try the demo?" send after my approval, and only once per business.

## prompt 08 · step 8 · Fulfillment

set up review automation for [business name]. when [owner] texts my twilio number a customer's name and phone after a job, or when a job is marked complete in their [jobber / housecall pro / square], wait 3 hours, then text the customer: "hi [customer], thanks for choosing [business name]! would you mind leaving a quick review? [review link]". if they haven't left a review in 3 days, send one follow up. never text the same customer more than twice. check their review count every day and log it.

## prompt 09 · step 9 · The monthly report

on the 1st of every month, for each client, send the owner a short text report: requests sent last month, new reviews that came in, their total review count now, and the gap to [competitor from their postcard]. show me the reports before they go out for the first 2 months, then send them automatically.

## prompt 10 · The full prompt

you are my review automation sales agent. run this pipeline and check in with me at the marked points.

2. filter to: rating 4.0 or higher, fewer than 50 reviews, phone number listed. also pull the top 3 [niche]s in [city] by review count and note their numbers.

3. show me the filtered list with each business's review count next to the top competitor's. wait for my approval.

5. build each business a demo page that says "text this number and see exactly what your customers would get." when someone texts my twilio number, reply with the review request message containing their business name and their direct google review link built from their place id (search.google.com/local/writereview?placeid=...).

6. design postcards: front is the card photo, back says "you have [x] reviews. the top [niche] in [city] has [y]." plus a qr to the demo page and my number: [your number].

8. every morning, tell me who scanned or texted the demo.
