The Value of Business Listings and Customer Reviews for Success

Job #1 around here is client success. When our clients achieve their goals, we all succeed.

Imagine a 24,000% increase in your business

Imagine if your business saw a 24,000% increase in business interest? That’s what happened to one of our clients.

In a 30 day period, he saw a HUGE increase in interest for his business’ services. He came to us with a single goal; to make his business sustainable as his sole source of income.

To help the client achieve the goal, we set out to build a strategy that was simple, easy sustainable and very low-cost.

How to Create a Simple Reputation Management Strategy

1. First up on the plan was a solid business Listing.
   • The client adds Posts to his Listing on a regular basis.
   • He includes images that represent his business and his approach.
   • Using his customer’s keywords, he is able to match his Listing and services with what customers are searching.
   • We included direct access to his booking app, phone numbers and location information.
2. The client needed a web presence, separate from their personal social media accounts.
   • We used Google’s ‘Site‘ tool to build an easy to use, single page site.
   • Then we uploaded pictures that represented the work the client does.
   • Links were included directly to the client’s booking app.
   • We added business hours and location.
   • And we included content that described and differentiated the client from others in the business category.
3. Asking for Customer Reviews.
   • Customer Reviews are one of the fastest ways to drive traffic to your Listing and website.
   • Our client asked his raving fans to leave Reviews on his business Listing.
   • On a regular basis he continues to request Reviews to drive local traffic to his Listing.

Asking for Reviews, or responding can be tough. It’s very un-Canadian of us to ask people to praise our work. For some tips and suggestions on how to respond to Reviews, or generate Reviews, read here or watch here.
