Reputation is everything, especially in today’s business clients. If you don’t have recent reviews on your GMB or social media accounts, your business is lacking much-needed social proof. Customers like to read third parties reviews when they are making a buying decision. They want to see the customer’s opinion of your company, the work you did or the product that you sold them.
They also want to see how you interact with them. Responding to reviews is really important, the good and the bad. On the occasion of a bad review, it is important that you respond approximately. Use this opportunity to help sell new prospects. If they are saying that your price is too high, list your starting price in the reply (not everyone views pricing the same). Of course, try to correct the problems, if possible.
This is the benchmark that your business needs to shoot for. While
Google doesn’t officially say that reviews are a ranking factor, we have seen some evidence that they do. Most importantly, you want the highest review rating for prospects to review.
“According to the BrightLocal survey, an overwhelming 86% of customers read online reviews before making a buying decision. This simple marketing tool may have a huge impact on customer's behavior – both positive and negative.”
If you are lacking recent reviews or if your review score quality is lower than the benchmark standard, the best way for you to do this is to contact your clients and ask for reviews.
