What does Trustpilot profile management include?
Trustpilot profile management is not just posting reviews; it's setting up an official company presence and a feedback workflow. We help claim and fill out the profile, connect invitations to real customer experiences, and organize team responses.
At the start, we check if the profile can be clearly matched to your project: name, description, website, and contact information must be aligned. Then we clarify at what stage the customer receives the invitation — after purchase or after onboarding — and who within the company is responsible for responding to reviews.
This work suits Web3 teams that want to make reviews part of customer service, not a one-off campaign. For example, a project with a product and a regular flow of new users benefits from a unified invitation script and clear response rules. If Trustpilot is only one of several trust verification channels, the work can be linked to other services from the platform promotion section and the Trust Score improvement on ScamAdviser service.
Before starting, prepare a link to the profile, an up-to-date product description, website address, customer journey stages, and the contact of the person responsible for inquiries. This helps quickly identify gaps and avoid mixing reviews of different products or service scenarios.
How to invite real customers to leave a review
The Trustpilot invitation must be tied to an actual customer interaction with the company. We set up the flow so that the review request is sent after purchase or onboarding, not to a random audience and not in exchange for a reward.
First, we choose the right moment in the customer journey. For a purchase, this could be after the order is completed; for onboarding, after the person has completed the project's defined starting process. Then we agree on the invitation text, the sending channel, the responsible team, and how to track sent requests. The message content should remain neutral: the customer is asked to share their experience, not to give a specific rating.
Before launch, check that the team can answer customer questions related to the invitation and that the recipient list actually consists of people who interacted with the product. It's also useful to define in advance who corrects contact details and who ensures invitations are not sent repeatedly without need.
As part of the service, we document the agreed-upon script and test it on a real example before scaling to the live flow. If the project also needs publications explaining the product, consider Medium content or Substack newsletters: these are separate formats, not a replacement for Trustpilot customer invitations.
What review responses help the team
Responses show that the company notices feedback and can continue the conversation substantively. We prepare templates for typical situations and then respond to positive and critical reviews in an agreed tone on behalf of the team.
For a positive review, it's enough to thank the customer and reflect a specific detail of their experience if it's in the text. For a critical review, it's more important to acknowledge the described problem, not argue with the person's feeling, and offer a clear path to resolve the situation. The public response should not disclose personal data, account details, or transaction information. If details are needed for resolution, the response suggests continuing the conversation through an appropriate support channel.
To avoid responses looking identical, the template provides a structure, not a ready-made copy-paste reply. Before publishing, we check that the response relates to the review content, does not contain promises the team cannot fulfill, and matches the actual status of the inquiry. For complex cases, we define in advance who to escalate the issue to within the project.
The team receives agreed-upon response options and a clear escalation process. This is especially useful if multiple employees respond to reviews or the product operates in several markets. If you need to supplement reputation management with public materials, you can separately discuss PR and media work.
How the work proceeds and what the report shows
Work begins with a review of the profile and customer journey, after which we agree on the invitation script, response tone, and escalation process for complex inquiries. To start, just provide a link to Trustpilot, briefly describe the product, and show where the purchase or onboarding ends.
After agreeing on settings, we check the profile and test that the invitation goes out at the intended moment. Then we manage responses according to agreed rules and record which topics recur in feedback. The project team remains the source of facts about the product and makes decisions on issues that require access to accounts or internal information.
The report reflects the profile rating, review volume, and recurring topics. This helps see which questions customers raise repeatedly, where they encounter difficulties, and what responses they have already received. Completed actions and reviews requiring team attention are recorded separately, making the report a working document, not just a summary of metrics.
MediaHype verifies the profile before launch and delivers the report in an agreed format. Based on it, you can determine the next step: refine the invitation text, update the response template, or pass a recurring issue to the product team. For comprehensive promotion, Trustpilot can be included in a plan alongside other platform placements, keeping a separate goal for each channel.
What Trustpilot rules need to be considered
For Trustpilot, the key principle is simple: a review must come from a real customer and reflect their own experience. The platform prohibits paid, incentivized, and fabricated reviews and may remove them; we do not buy reviews and build work on authentic feedback.
Therefore, before launch, we check the source of contacts, the reason for the invitation, and the message text. The request to leave a review should not push the customer toward a positive rating or depend on whether they are satisfied with the product. If a review appears to violate Trustpilot's rules, we use the platform's designated channel to report it and record this step in the work report.
For the team, it's useful to prepare evidence of the actual customer journey in advance: a description of the purchase or onboarding, the logic for sending invitations, and the person responsible for executing them. This simplifies internal process verification and helps resolve disputed situations faster. Separately, keep public company information up to date: the name, website, and description should match what the project currently does.
Review publication, maintaining a specific rating, and decisions on violation reports are handled by Trustpilot. We are responsible for agreed settings, invitations to real customers, responses, and correct escalation of inquiries, but not for the platform's decisions.
How to start managing reviews on Trustpilot
To start, send a link to your Trustpilot profile and a brief description of how a customer buys the product or goes through onboarding. We will review the profile, note any missing information, and propose a sequence for setting up invitations and responses.
Before the first discussion, it's helpful to gather:
- the project's current name, website, and a brief product description;
- a link to an existing profile, if any;
- a description of the moment after purchase or onboarding when the customer receives the invitation;
- examples of typical questions and support inquiries;
- the name of the person responsible for approving public responses and complex cases.
If the profile has not yet been claimed, we start with its setup. If it is already active, we focus on the quality of the customer journey, clarity of the invitation, and consistency of responses. For questions where a potential customer compares independent platforms, you can separately consider Quora answers for Web3 companies; this does not replace collecting feedback from your customers.
Send the profile link and customer journey outline — MediaHype will review the initial state, agree on the scope of work, and prepare a launch plan for invitations and responses.

Frequently asked questions
Do you create reviews or invite real customers?
We set up invitations for people who have actually purchased the product or completed onboarding. The customer writes the review themselves; we do not write reviews on their behalf or buy them. To start, we agree on the customer journey point and a neutral invitation text.
Can we ask only satisfied customers to leave a review?
We set up the invitation based on an event in the customer journey, such as after purchase or onboarding, not on how positive the person's experience seems. The text asks them to share their opinion and does not request a specific rating. This approach helps collect authentic feedback.
What do you do with a negative review?
We respond according to an agreed script: address the described problem substantively, do not disclose personal data, and offer an appropriate channel to continue the conversation. If the situation can only be verified internally, we pass it to the responsible team member and reflect the topic in the report.
Can you guarantee a specific rating or that a review will stay?
No. Trustpilot independently decides which reviews to publish or remove and how to display the profile rating. The platform prohibits paid, incentivized, and fabricated reviews. We perform the agreed work on the profile, invitations to real customers, responses, and inquiries according to the platform's rules.
What do we need to provide to get started?
Prepare a link to your Trustpilot profile, website, product description, and a brief outline of the purchase or onboarding process. Also, provide the contact of the person who can approve public responses and answer internal questions about customer experience. If there is no profile yet, just indicate that.
How long does setup take?
The timeline is agreed after reviewing the profile and customer journey. It depends on the readiness of company information, the availability of the person responsible for the profile, and how clearly the invitation sending moment is defined. After reviewing the initial materials, we will communicate the sequence of work and approval points.
