Asking for reviews is completely out of hand, and the big companies, like Booking and TA, hound our guests with multiple requests.Stay at any hotel and you'll get them. Check in on Facebook at any location, and you'll be asked to review it. And now FB even badgers you to check in. Ding...It looks like you are at McDonald's. Would you like to check in now and tell your friends?
And the day after you check in, it's, you were at Pizza Hut yesterday. Can you tell us this restaurant's hours? Is it family friendly? And on and on.
I buy a lot from Amazon, and they are sending more and more requests too. How was the product? How was the service? How was the packaging? Did it arrive on time? Please review our requests for reviews. Well, haven't seen that one yet, but it's coming.
So today I went in and killed the "thanks for your stay" emails I used to send automatically three days after people left. At the bottom of this unnecessary intrusion in my guests' day, I had a request for a TA review. No more! Enough is enough! I only got about 1 review a quarter anyway.

It's time to stand out from the crowd by NOT bothering people by asking for reviews![/h2]
