Challenge → Outcome

Turn Feedback Into Trust

The Challenge

A handful of unfair or non-compliant reviews can tank ratings, search visibility, and trust.

What You Get

  • Clarity

    A review audit with platform-by-platform policy checks and priority cases.

  • Action

    Flags and appeals where policies allow, owner responses that defuse and inform, and customer remediation to resolve valid issues.

  • Momentum

    A compliant review generation program that earns fresh, high-quality feedback.

Why It Converts

We combine lawful policy requests with human-first responses and steady new reviews, so one bad week does not define your brand.

How it works

  1. 1

    Intake and Access

    List your profiles such as Google, Yelp, social, review sites, and app stores, and confirm access, locations, and escalation contacts.

  2. 2

    Audit and Plan

    Baseline ratings and volume, identify risky reviews by policy fit such as harassment, hate, inappropriate content, off-topic, spam, conflicts of interest, and privacy, find duplicates, and draft a resolution plan with timelines.

  3. 3

    Flags, Appeals, and Responses

    File policy-aligned flags and appeals with evidence, and publish owner responses using prepared macros that de-escalate, clarify facts, and invite offline resolution.

  4. 4

    Customer Remediation

    Coordinate outreach to resolve legitimate issues with refund, redo, or make-good per your policy and, where allowed, invite the customer to update their review after resolution, with no incentives where prohibited.

  1. 5

    Rebuild and Monitor

    Stand up a compliant review engine across email or SMS prompts, QR cards, and post-service follow-ups, avoid gating or incentives, and monitor trends with monthly scorecards.

Mini Case Study

How a national retail brand recovered ratings after a product recall.

Reputation Recovery After Product Recall

Problem

After a major recall, product‑related listings averaged 1.9★, responses were inconsistent, and franchisees were unsure how to engage without escalating complaints.

Intervention

  • Root‑cause analysis: segmented reviews by theme (recall, service, shipping) to separate recall fallout from broader CX issues.
  • Resolution playbook: created standardized messaging templates and escalation flows, plus a dedicated recall‑update microsite linked in replies.
  • Outreach: used CRM data to verify customers, then issued goodwill offers and public apologies where appropriate.
  • Review strategy: post‑resolution outreach to verified purchasers encouraging honest updates after their issue was resolved.

Outcome (12–16 weeks)

  • Average rating improved from 1.9★ to 3.8★.
  • –43% negative review volume month‑over‑month.
  • +28% increase in updated positive reviews.
  • Customer service response SLA improved to under 24 hours.
Reputation Recovery After Product Recall

This case shows how structured responses, real remediation, and compliant review follow‑ups can repair ratings after a recall without gaming the system.
