What Is Reputation and Review Management?

Online reputation refers to the perception online users have of your company, products, or services based on information they find online. This can include online reviews, search results, images, videos, social media mentions, and more.

People buy from brands they trust. Negativity spreads faster than positivity. Negative comments need to be addressed one time before they lead snowball to bigger problems. Online reputation management fixes reputation issues before they get out of hand.

Increase Your Sales 

Before people buy, they search. The service or product with positive reviews gets consideration. Products and services with negative reviews are skipped over without consideration. More positive reviews and no negative reviews are a formula for more sale opportunities.

Improves Search Engine Visibilty

Positive reviews about specific brands, products, or services can go viral. Word of mouth advertising is still the most effective form of advertising. Today, it’s just done in a digitized way. When you make people happy, they’re going to talk about it and share.

Stay in tune with Your Customers 

Business owners get busy running their business. Often your customers tell you exactly what they want and need, but you can’t hear it because you’re too busy. Online reputation management is a way to better connect, hear, and see what your customers are telling you and respond.

Turn Mistakes into Gold 

Nobody is perfect. We all make mistakes. What’s important is how you respond to your mistake. If you get a bad review but don’t put any effort into making it right, it can end in disaster for your business. But when you go the extra mile to make it right, that customer can become your most loyal supporter.
