Do you know what the internet is saying about your business? In today’s interview with Aaron, you will learn how to control what is being said on online review sites and social media. We talk about how to set up a consistent process so you will get more positive reviews, the right review sites, how to handle a bad review, and much more.

What you’ll hear in this episode:  

• Personal experience stories that show why online reviews matter:
• My garage doors needed replacing, but I couldn’t remember what company put them in. I was happy with the workmanship, but why have I had NO contact from them? I googled several, read their reviews, and made a choice. What do YOUR reviews look like?
• I needed new towels, so I looked on Amazon for the best reviews and the highest ratings. Knowing nothing about the towels other than the reviews, I made the purchase. Are YOU missing the boat compared to your competitors?
• I had to go to the dentist and get a crown, to the tune of $1500. There was a “Leave a review for us on Google” sign, but I forgot to do it. They emailed three times until I finally clicked on the link and left a “happy” review. All they had to do was ask and make it easy! How persistent are you in getting reviews?
