8. Why does responding to reviews matter?
Having a mechanism in place that allows you to respond to all reviews — positive, negative, or neutral — does the following:
Shows customers you’re paying attention
No one wants to put a review out there and then wonder if anyone at the business saw it, or even cares. Whether a customer is praising you or criticizing you — it doesn’t matter. Responding to every review indicates to existing and potential customers that you’re actually listening to and value what’s being said — and are willing to engage with it.
Enables you to impact the conversation
Responding to reviews lets you get your brand story out there. What are your business values? What are you striving for? What improvements are you actively making that will give customers a better experience? Review responses are golden opportunities for influencing the buzz about your business.
It doesn’t mean telling a fluffy story or glossing over genuine problems. Rather, it’s about providing clarity, adding information, or offering support that gives the reviewer and audience a more complete and accurate picture of your business.
Improves customer loyalty
When a customer gets a response, they experience it as an emotional connecting point that makes them feel more human to your business and your business more human to them. They might feel flattered, valued, appreciated — but whatever they feel, it’s the emotion you’re tapping into, which is one of the quickest ways to earn customer loyalty.
If the ROI of responding to reviews is a whole bunch of long-term, satisfied customers, that can feel like its own reward. But if you need more convincing, you’re 60% to 70% more likelyopens in new tab to sell to an existing, loyal customer.
Helps you turn around a negative situation
Negative reviews can hurt your business and drive away potential customers (as outlined below). But the reality is, no business can escape getting a negative review occasionally. The secret is in how you handle it. When you promptly offer a sincere apology and a real solution, you can calm down a disgruntled customer and even increase the likelihood that they’ll return.
Just as important, you show potential customers that you’re willing to fix a negative situation and improve so that a revenue loss doesn’t have to be the only outcome. At the end of the day, it’s helpful to remember this: over half (53%) of consumersopens in new tab look for a realistic mix of positive and negative reviews as their top prompt to make a purchase.
