Canyon Crest Reputation Marketing

There is a hot trend that is taking off in a new direction for Reputation Management
and it’s Reputation Marketing, how to be pro active with your reputation online and how
others see you on a daily, weekly and monthly basis to that will protect your good name
that you work so hard to keep in good standing. Even if you have bad reviews and comments
online now my system will bring your business back to life and give you the peace of mind
you have been searching for.

See if any of these tic your negative boxes for online reviews and comments that you need help with, if yes then after you have read my report below get the number at the bottom and give me a call.

Issue: Company Is Not Listed In The Correct Directory Sites
Thousands of customers everyday search on local business directories like Google+, Yelp, Yahoo Local, and dozens of other sites to find the most reputable company to do business with. After extensive research we found that your company could not be found or is not properly set up on some of the most vital directories for your business. 87% of customers that are referred to you go online to find your company information and majority of them are looking for reviews about your company.

Issue: No Reputation Monitoring System
Unlike the 100’s of different software that can monitor your social engagement, brand and company name, these technologies like Google Alerts cannot monitor your reputation. When people leave reviews on a directory site like yelp, they never mention your name because they’re already on your business listing. Therefore, with dozens of review sites that are out there, there is no way for even the most sophisticated social or branding software to know if bad reviews are being posted and no way to follow up to get the bad reviews eliminated.

Issue: Multiple Bad Reviews, Poor Ratings, And No Reviews Found
We’ve found bad reviews and poor ratings about your company on local business directories. Each poor review not only is publicly read by your potential customers, but it also brings down your reputation score on local directory sites. We also found local directories where you have no reviews at all. Many local directories such as City Search and Insider Pages aggregate reviews from other sites. Therefore both good and bad reviews can spread to other sites very quickly.

Issue: Not Enough Reviews To Be Trusted
Consumers will read an average of 10 reviews before making a decision and research shows that customers do not trust a company that has less than 10 five star reviews. Therefore your company needs a strategy to quickly get more online reviews to show up on your directory listings.

Issue: No Effective Online Feedback System For Surveying & Collecting Reviews
Employees and staff are motivated when they are praised and get feedback on the great job that they are doing. It’s also critical for you and your team managers to understand your customers experience and where your employees are falling short and need to improve.

Issue: No Review Posting Strategy
Companies that get reviews from their customers cannot post those reviews online because local directories like Yelp, Google, Bing, and dozens of other have proprietary filters and algorithms to delete reviews that are posted from the same computer IP network. Under no circumstances should anyone post reviews on behalf of a customers as it is typically against a sites Terms Of Service and possibly FTC regulations.

Issue: No Control Over Bad Reviews Being Posted
No matter what strategy a company uses to collect reviews; your company does not have control over the fact that customers may post bad reviews. Your business is only one customer a way from getting a poor reputation online.

Issue: No Video Marketing Review Strategy
96% of customers polled said they find video helpful when making a decision to buy and 71% say that videos leave a positive impression on customers that visit their site. You do not presently have any video reviews to be able to promote the great customer service and experience that you give on your website, social media, or on any of your business listings.

Issue: No Reputation Reporting Process
It’s important that you and your team keep up to date on the progress of creating and maintaining a 5-star reputation online. Therefore, you need a detailed process that will inform you of both the good and unfavorable reviews in a report that you can share with your team.

If any of these sound like your business and the problems you face with every day with bad or negative reviews and comments then you need to contact me today, I have a very comprehensive system that works for any business.

Contact me and find out how to start your Canyon Crest Reputation Marketing System for your business.
