Reputation Management – Why You Need It
Have Direct Access to Customer Reviews
What is Reputation Management?
Reputation management is an attempt to influence how and what people think about a brand or person when it is viewed online. So, what’s the difference? How does online review management come into play? Online review management is the business process of monitoring, analyzing, and responding to generating reviews across a multitude of online review sites and platforms.
Online reputation management involves a mix of public relations, legal, and search engine optimization (SEO) strategies to advertise, promote, and defend your online image or business’s reputation.
Review generation is the goal and on-going process of obtaining more online reviews on your business listings’ review sites. Those can include sites such as Facebook, Yahoo, Yelp, Google, and other industry-related sites.
Manage & Grow Your Business
Utilizing your strengths and growing your business has never been easier. Take reviews from real people and use them to your advantage. But how does it work?
1. ASKING!
The easiest thing you can do is ask your clients or customers to share their experiences. We do that through branded and individualized email & text marketing. It’s as simple as that.
2. CALCULATING YOUR RESULTS
Numbers. Numbers. Numbers. People love numbers. When your mass email or text message is sent out, customers will be asked to rank their experience on a metric scale of 1-10. Then take those numbers and generate them into your NPS (Net Promoter Score).
3. UTILIZING YOUR NEGATIVE FEEDBACK
Unsatisfied customers are your KEY players when growing your business. The more you learn, the better you can be. Make sense? When your negative scores are received the dissatisfied customer will be directed to a customized page allowing them to provide you with honest feedback. You’ll be able to identify weak spots within your company & potentially mend a negative experience.
4. KNOW YOUR CUSTOMERS
By utilizing and managing your customer reviews, you’ll truly get a grasp of how your customers and clients feel about you.
