Invite to review: CSV bulk upload

Why use invite to review?

Daynurseries.co.uk has an ‘invite to review’ feature that allows you to invite people to review your nursery. The feature is available with Enhanced, Premium and Platinum subscriptions.

The ‘invite to review’ feature is a great way to prompt parents and guardians of the children in your care to leave a review on your daynurseries.co.uk profile. Many may not be aware that they can review online, or know how to do so. When you use the feature, the people you invite to review will be sent an email with guidance on how to leave a review for the nursery.

Using a CSV file (Comma Separated Values file) is an efficient way to invite lots of contacts to review, which can in turn result in more reviews being left on your daynurseries.co.uk profile.

How to use invite to review with a CSV file

If you already have a CSV file of contacts, you can start the invite to review steps straight away. If you don’t you can make one using our template, which looks like this:

When filling it in, make sure that each name or email address does not have any spaces on either side of it.

Save the Excel file in .csv format by clicking Save As, then for the box ‘Save as type’ select CSV (Comma delimited) from the drop-down menu.
