Collect testimonials

The best time to ask for feedback is while the experience is still fresh. Share your ShowNoise review link shortly after a performance, or make its QR code visible at the venue.

Choose the right moment

Send a direct follow-up to the person who booked the show.
Place the QR code near merchandise or another natural audience touchpoint.
Include the review link in a short post-show message to attendees who opted to hear from you.

Avoid interrupting the performance or pressuring someone to respond on the spot.

Ask a focused question

Specific prompts tend to produce more useful testimonials. Ask what stood out, how the room responded, or what made the act a good fit for the event.

For a booker, you might ask:

What was it like to work with us, and how did the audience respond?

For an audience member, you might ask:

What is the moment from the show you would tell a friend about?

Keep the request personal

Say why their perspective matters and keep the message brief. A good request sounds like it came from the performer, not an automated campaign.
