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

Copy the link or download a QR code

1. Open Collect in the app.
2. Copy Your review link, then use Open review form to verify the name and prompt. The address looks like https://app.shownoise.com/your-address/review.
3. Choose Download SVG for a vector QR code. Leave space around it, use sufficient contrast, and scan the actual printed result with a phone before a show.

Reviewers do not need an account. The form asks for a name, role, star rating, text, optional photo, and separate publication/contact permissions. An accepted submission starts privately even when publication permission is given. If you change your performer address, check old links and replace printed codes as needed.

Send an individual email request

Choose Email a review request in Collect, enter the recipient and personal message, and send. Check status on the request screen; delivery does not prove the message was read. Email links expire after 30 days and can be used once. Resending invalidates the older link. Opt-outs, suppression rules, and sending limits apply on every plan.

If an upload or submission is interrupted, check the form’s result before retrying. A confirmation may indicate that the review saved but the photo did not. Troubleshooting →

• 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.

Do not solicit only positive feedback, condition a reward on a favorable rating, or misrepresent the reviewer’s relationship to you.

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.

Note

Only contact people through channels where they expect to hear from you, and respect any applicable consent and messaging rules.
