What is Online Reputation Management & How can it Help my Business?
Reputation management is about ensuring that the potential customers see your business for what it truly is, instead of what a vocal minority puts online. By using reputation management it makes your other marketing efforts easier. Instead of playing catch-up to overcome false impressions, you receive more leads generated, website referrals, increased effectiveness for your marketing efforts, and more time to grow your business.
The best way to cut through the noise
Everyday, customers use search engines, like Google, to discover and evaluate businesses. In a split second they decide if your business is trustworthy or if they should go with someone else.

Process overview
The Top Factors of Online Reputation Management
Your brand’s reputation is made up of what people believe about your business. By employing third-party endorsements you increase the authenticity of your online reputation. Below are the top factors that affect your reputation, and how you can leverage them for your company.
Online Presence
Fact: Your reputation is comprised of what people find through search. Fairly or unfairly, search engines, like Google, decide what is shown about a businesses. It might be reviews, business directories, social media, or other, but all of these sources need to share the same positive story.
Claiming and Optimize – Claim your web properties immediately. This can include social sites, review pages, or business directories like the yellow pages. Make sure to check each site that it has accurate contact information.
Connect Your Properties – By linking between sites, you begin to establish brand authority.
Uniformity – Having your business contact information and address correct throughout the internet will help increase the rankings of positive content.
Reviews
Reviews are being accessed by more customers everyday. So having a strong reputation for online review sites is one of the most important steps you can take. But you can’t stuff the ballot box for yourself, because users are looking for authenticity.Monitoring & Prioritizing – We determine which sites are most influential for reviews. This depends upon your industry and prospect base. We make sure those positive reviews are front and center.
Boost the number and breadth of existing reviews – We help you increase the number of reviews you are getting and help proliferate those reviews to other sites.
Social Media
Social media has given power to the customer. It also can be a great source for referrals. By engaging with social media, you put a human face on your business and demonstrate your customer care. It is a great platform for solidifying your reputation.
Claim your turf – Create a beautiful listing on each social channel. Be an active participant, but don’t always dominate the conversation. By spotlighting your customer comments, and helpful information, you become part of the larger community.
Respond quickly – Setup processes that allow you to quickly reply back to customer inquiries, but don’t use canned answers as that corrodes social authenticity.
Surveying
Surveys give you direct access to customer opinions. By providing a channel for customers to express their opinions, reduces the odds that they will complain or post online. It also increases customer sentiment as they feel like they are being heard.
Provide multiple channels of communication – By providing several feedback avenues, you decrease the likelihood that a customer will seek out his own channel.
Follow up with negative feedback – By controlling the feedback channel, you avoid the negative comments from showing up online. By following up directly and in a timely fashion will also minimize the chances that a customer will seek out a public platform to complain.
Take action – Look for trends and patterns in the reviews. By gathering so many comments, it can help you improve your business processes.
Monitoring
Your online reputation is constantly changing and evolving. You need to diligently watch and measure what is being said about you online. You don’t want your efforts to slowly deteriorate.
Tracking – What are the top results when someone searches your brand? Is their any negative piece of content that has risen to prominence? How many reviews are you getting? What is their star rating?
Setting alerts – Setup alerts for when people post new information about you online. This is an easy way to monitor your online reputation.
Regular reporting – In-depth information about your exact brand position and the effectiveness of our management, delivered monthly.
Scoring
Reputation is relative: a four-star rating only looks good if everyone else has three stars. To stay ahead of the competition, you need to know where you excel and where you lag behind. If you have multiple business locations, you also need to see which are performing best and which need improvement.
Monitor local competition – How are your competitors managing their reputation online? Is there any areas you can exploit? What areas are they being successful in that you could mimic?
Setting the right benchmarks – Understand where your competition and industry are standing and then set goals to exceed their performance. 100 4 star reviews is less impressive if your major competitor has thousands of 4.5 star reviews. Setting the right benchmark helps you realize meaningful success.
Synchronization
If you have multiple locations, the need for a positive online reputation is multiplied. When working with our team, we help synchronize and focus your marketing efforts. Instead of both locations suffering independently, we clear the table for your marketing teams to be successful.
Scaling – There is the overall brand reputation, but also the micro-brand reputation. Is there a particular branch or location that is suffering? Maybe it is an entire region or coast to coast image problem? We can effectively handle and improve all areas of your reputation.
