Frequently asked questions
- How many Google reviews does a salon in Miami need?
- Median in Miami is 423 reviews. To rank in the top 25% of businesses in your category, aim for at least twice that — around 846 reviews.
- How do I get from 4.0 to 4.6 stars on Google?
- Two levers: systematically request reviews from happy customers (QR code at the point of service works best) and intercept unhappy feedback privately before it becomes a public 1-star review. Our pilot customer Sakura Hagen went from 4.0 to 4.6 in 6 weeks this way.
- Is AI auto-reply to Google reviews GDPR-compliant?
- Yes — provided data is processed in the EU and no customer PII beyond what Google already displays publicly is used. Starise meets both standards.
- How much does review management cost?
- Starise Standard is $59/month per location including unlimited AI replies, QR code, and dashboard. 7-day free trial, no credit card.
- How fast will my Google rating improve?
- Typically 4-8 weeks. Speed depends on your customer volume and starting rating. Lower starting scores improve fastest.
