Customers prefer to shop at sites with lots of product reviews. They want to know as much as they can about a product before buying.
So, how do you get reviews on your site? How do you get reviews for a new product?
Just ask. Ask every buyer, every time, to review what they bought. (And you don’t need to pay, incentivize, or reward the reviews. They’ll do it just to be heard and to be helpful.)
