Automate Testimonial Collection: Save Time and Boost Credibility

Collecting customer testimonials can increase sales by up to 34% (Spiegel Research Center, 2023), but most businesses struggle to get them consistently. Automating your review process with Zapier and Typeform saves hours and turns happy customers into your best marketing asset.


By connecting Typeform and Zapier, Flow Genius helped a service business automate their testimonial requests, increasing positive feedback by 3x in just one month. Here’s how you can use workflow automation and AI integration to streamline your review collection and build trust faster.


The Challenge


Many businesses know testimonials drive credibility and sales, but few have a reliable system for gathering them. Manually chasing customers for feedback is time-consuming and often gets pushed aside. According to BrightLocal, 72% of consumers won’t take action until they read positive reviews (2024). Without a steady flow of testimonials, your marketing loses impact and you miss out on potential leads.


The Solution


Flow Genius specializes in workflow automation and AI integration to solve this exact problem. By linking Typeform (for easy, branded surveys) with Zapier (to automate the process), you can trigger review requests at the perfect moment—such as after a purchase or project completion. This removes manual follow-up and ensures every satisfied customer is invited to share their experience.


Implementation Steps


1. Set up a Typeform survey tailored for testimonials, using clear, simple questions. 2. Connect Typeform to Zapier, creating a workflow that triggers when a sale closes or a project wraps up. 3. Use Zapier to automatically send a personalized email or SMS with the Typeform link to each customer. 4. Collect responses in real time and set up notifications for your team. 5. Use Zapier to push new testimonials to your website or marketing dashboard, and flag standout reviews for follow-up or social sharing. 6. Analyze feedback trends with AI tools to spot opportunities for improvement and showcase top comments.


Results


A Flow Genius client in the home services industry automated their testimonial collection using this approach. Within four weeks, they tripled their monthly review volume and cut follow-up time by 80%. Their website’s conversion rate improved by 22%, and they now spend less than 30 minutes a week managing testimonials. Research shows that businesses with 50+ recent reviews earn 54% more revenue than those with fewer (Womply, 2024).
