Reviews and reputation management is the ongoing work of earning more positive online reviews, responding to every review, and shaping what customers see when they search your business name. For most local service businesses that means three things: a steady flow of new 5-star Google reviews, professional replies within a day or two, and a first page of search results that reflects the business you run today. Everyday Media Group handles all three for you.
What Is Included
- Review generation. Automatic review requests by text and email after every completed job, so happy customers leave reviews while the job is fresh. See AI Marketing Automation for how the requests are sent.
- Review responses. Thoughtful replies to positive and negative reviews on Google, Facebook, Yelp, and industry sites.
- Monitoring. Alerts when a new review or mention appears so nothing sits unanswered.
- Search results cleanup. New content and updated listings that push accurate, positive information to the top when people search your name.
Reviews also drive local rankings. Google Business Profile listings with more recent, higher-rated reviews tend to earn more map pack visibility, and AI tools like ChatGPT cite review content when they recommend local businesses.
Benefits of Reputation Management Services
Having a strong online reputation is clearly very important. Since improving your reputation on your own can be challenging, working with professional reputation management services can be a great option as they can provide a number of benefits that will help your business.
Help Identify Challenges With Reputation
One of the first benefits that you will receive when working with a professional reputation management service is that they can help you identify challenges with your reputation. In many cases, your business or personal reputation could be impacted by stories, online postings, blog posts, and consumer reviews that you are not even aware of. Reputation management services will help by scouring the Internet and social media pages to identify information that could be affecting your reputation.
Based on this assessment and review, you can then start the process of improving your online reputation. Further, identifying and responding to any negative information will also give you the opportunity to take accountability and make things right with past customers.
Address Negative Information
If your online reputation has been damaged, reputation management services will next help by giving support to address the negative information. This can include replying to negative blog posts or social media postings or ensuring that positive information about your company is just as visible. This can include creating new blog posts on your website, taking out advertisement space, or completing other tasks that will help make positive features about your business more visible to the average consumer. This can help to improve your reputation with both past customers and future potential clients.
Be Prepared
Even if you have a good online reputation today, there is always a chance that it could change in the future. When you have an online reputation management service by your side, they will consistently review the Internet and look for potentially harmful stories. Generally, the sooner you are able to identify these issues and respond, the less impact they will have on your business. Once negative information does arise, the reputation management service can help start the process of responding and even updating information online with more positive stories about your business.
Save Time and Resources
Some businesses may try to improve their online reputation on their own. However, they will quickly find that the ability to do this requires a significant amount of time and skill. Instead of allocating your own time and personnel to the problem, working with a reputation management service is a good option as they can effectively manage the problem for you. This will allow you to focus on other areas of your business as your online reputation continues to improve.
