What to look out for when sending a test invitation 

When you send your test invitation, we recommend checking a few different things to ensure you're using betterbunch to its full potential. 

  1. Our first recommendation is to test both SMS and email invites. While most invites are sent by SMS, some may be sent via email, and you want to make sure both are tip-top 
  2. Is your logo crisp, clean and sharp? If it's a little blurry or small, take a look at this article to learn how to update it
  3. Check to make sure you're happy with the wording of the email or SMS you are sending out. Make sure there are no spelling mistakes and that your business name is correct. If you think it needs tweaking, you can learn how to update your invitation template here
  4. This one is important!
    Test the thumbs-up process to confirm customers are directed to the right review site. It's rare, but some companies have multiple Google or Facebook pages or similar names. You want to be sure you're directing customers to leave reviews on your profile and not a business in Germany with the same name
    If you find your invitation leads to the wrong profile, update your review sites using the instructions found here
