How to ask clients for testimonials

Pick the right moment

Buying, selling or renting a property is one of the biggest decisions your clients make, and their gratitude peaks right after closing, handing over the keys or move-in day. Ask then. Past clients count too: a message to someone you helped years ago is often welcome.

Ask a client for a testimonial

1. Open Testimonials in the top menu (or the Testimonials button on your dashboard).
2. Tap Ask for a testimonial and type the client’s name. Add their mobile and email if you have them.
3. Optional: pick the property, or type where the deal was (“Condo in Brickell, Miami”). It shows on the testimonial. You can rename a listing just for this testimonial.
4. Choose the message language, then Create link.
5. Send it: Send on WhatsApp opens a chat with the message ready, or use SMS, email or Copy link.

Note: If you added the client’s email and they don’t answer in 3 days, we send them one friendly reminder. You can also tap Remind on WhatsApp in Sent requests.

What your client sees

A short page with your photo. They tap the stars, choose how they worked with you (bought, sold, rented…), and write a few lines or record a short video. The writing prompts follow their story, so it takes about a minute.

One link for everyone

Your testimonial link (yourname/reviews/write) works for anyone, with no request needed. Put it in your WhatsApp status, email signature or business cards, or download the QR code for the closing table.

Approve and show your testimonials

• New testimonials wait in To approve. Nothing is public until you tap Publish.
• If a client didn’t allow publishing, you can read it but it can’t be shown.
• Pin to top puts your best testimonial first everywhere.
• To choose where they show (bio link, property pages, agent pages, testimonials page, website widget), go to Settings → Testimonials. Everything is on by default.
• Published testimonials appear on your bio link, your property pages, your agent pages and your testimonials page.

Share your testimonials page

Under Your testimonials page you’ll find a short link (slists.co/yourname/reviews) with copy, WhatsApp and QR buttons. Send it to people deciding whether to work with you, or add it as a “Testimonials” button on your website or Linktree.
