What it is

What is a local business survey tool?

A local business survey tool lets you create short customer surveys, collect responses at your location, and understand what customers really think. Unlike a public review, a survey is private feedback you own. You ask exactly what you want to know, and the answers come straight to you.

Public reviews tell you the verdict; surveys tell you the why. A quick, scannable survey captures honest feedback in the moment, so you catch problems before they become one-star reviews, and learn exactly what customers value.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions.

What is a local business survey tool?

A local business survey tool lets you create short customer surveys, collect responses at your location, and understand what customers think. With GBPPromote you build a survey with AI or by hand, share it with a QR code, and see the results by location with AI summaries, private feedback you own, alongside your public reviews.

Can AI create my survey for me?

Yes. Describe what you want to learn, for example customer satisfaction after a visit, and AI drafts the questions for you, mixing ratings, multiple choice and open text. You can use the AI draft as-is or edit it, and you can also build a survey completely manually if you prefer.

How do customers take the survey?

With a QR code. Display it in-store, on receipts, table tents, packaging or counters, and customers scan with their phone to open the survey instantly: no app, no typing a link. Each location can have its own QR code so responses are tagged to the right place.

Can I see survey results by location?

Yes. Analytics are location-wise, so you can see response volume, ratings and trends for each location and compare them side by side. That reveals which locations are delighting customers and which need attention.

Does it summarise the responses?

Yes. AI summarises your survey responses. Including open-text answers. Into clear takeaways, common themes and overall sentiment, so you get the story in seconds instead of reading every response by hand.

How is a survey different from a review?

Reviews are public and posted on Google; surveys are private feedback you collect and own. Surveys let you ask exactly what you want to know, catch issues before they become public complaints, and understand customers in depth: a perfect complement to your review strategy.

How much does it cost?

The survey tool is included in the GBPPromote platform at a flat $5.33 per location per month, alongside reviews, listings, rankings, optimization and reporting, with a 3-day free trial and no card required.
