ONLINE REPUTATION MANAGEMENT

What is Reputation Management?

Overview

Reputation management’s purpose is two-fold. It allows you to monitor how consumers perceive your organization and also take steps to improve your customers’ perceptions. Online reputation management’s primary focus is what’s being said about the brand in online reviews, social media, and Google reviews.

The Online Reputation Management Process

As easy as 1-2-3.

1. Simple surveys are crafted within a reputation management software. At chosen points in the buyer’s journey, the client/customer receives a survey to collect their feedback.

2. Upon responding to the survey, customers with good to great experiences (you choose how those are defined) are prompted to post a review. Depending on the reputation management software you use, the review may be posted on your website, Google or any number of other review sites.

3.  Monitor reviews and reply if needed. As great as it would be to always get high ratings, things happen. In the event that you receive a bad review, a reputation management software allows you to address the issues without posting the review. The customer is still free to post a review on any sites, but they would have to initiate posting instead of being prompted. You can’t just pretend bad customer service or bad experiences didn’t happen, but with a reputation management software, you are better able to identify and correct problems that your organization may have that cause customers to be unhappy.
