Reviews are very powerful way to drive more opportunities for your countertop business.

It's more important to have authentic reviews than it is to have a big number of reviews. Don't buy reviews. This is the fastest way to loose the confidence of your customers. It's not worth it in the end. look at the reviewer by clicking on the icon associated with the review. See the depth of the reviews they have left on other businesses. When this content is thin (little content) and the profile is thin it's probably fake. If the content of the review looks spammy with the name of the business, the product or service mentioned too much. It's probably fake.

One of my partners had 2 reviews that popped up.. 1 star .. no text. the reviewer profiles both had 1 other review on the same competitor business with 5 stars. We nailed 'em! Contact me for more details. We provide Review Management Strategy and monitoring services. We have a program to address: Your current reviews, how and when to request reviews, and a process to control and grow these authentic reviews.

No content on the review just the star rating. No customer by this name in our system. 

 

When these reviews were published, 2 nearly identical posts existed. We contacted google and proposed the situation and clear case of review manipulation. Since then the other review has been removed and the content of this positive review for them no longer has mention of my partners business.

So we took to social media and let everyone know that this was happening to us. This turned into us receiving 15, 5 star reviews on various platforms and a clear statement of what a competitor is up to that remains up to this day.  This has driven more business our way than 50+ 5 star reviews would ever do. We were able to empower the community to identify this tactic and let their community know what was going on.

To this day we still are reaping the rewards of this mistake of a competitor.
