What is Engage?

The Engage Widget shows your website visitors real recent reviews, customer stories and purchases as they visit your website. This social proof helps potential customers feel confident about their decision to book with you, converting more leads.

We use machine learning to optimize and deliver social proof to your website visitors. Which means more sales with less work. Engage learns what stories work best to grow your conversions even more over time.

Here is an example of the Engage widget in action (watch the bottom left hand corner): https://get.nicejob.com/product/engage

Engage pulls in your most recent 12 reviews and bookings from the last 6 months will be displayed. Bookings will only show up if you have connected your CRM to NiceJob, either directly or via Zapier*. Visit the app page to see which ones we integrate with! 

*If you have connected your CRM via Zapier, you will need to create a separate Zap specifically for the purpose of creating booking events in NiceJob which will allow us to show new bookings in the Engage widget. To do this, the NiceJob 'action' should be 'create booking event'. See Zapier help article for more details.
