It has become apparent in today’s technological world that more and more business people take online reviews and reputation management very seriously. Those that take the time to respond to a customer’s compliments or complaints really care about what is thought about them. Those that do not respond do not really care and are not interested in becoming a larger and more successful business.
It is very important to respond to reviews because it is viewed that the review of one person is the voice of one thousand people.
Key Takeaways:
