Reputation Management Best Practices: Protect, Enhance, and Grow Your Brand with GetDandy

The Power of Online Reviews
- In today's digital world, a business's reputation is often determined by its online reviews. A staggering 96% of consumers consider negative reviews before making a purchasing decision. Just one bad review can deter 10-35% of potential customers—a loss that quickly adds up. For businesses ignoring their online reputation, the cost is undeniable.
 
The Financial Impact of Negative Reviews
- Let’s put this into perspective. If a business receives 4,625 monthly views and just 10% of those viewers are deterred by bad reviews, that’s 462 lost customers each month. Assuming an average order value of $150, this results in a $69,300 monthly loss—all from reputation mismanagement.

 But the good news? Reputation management isn’t just about damage control—it’s about revenue growth, brand trust, and increased customer acquisition.



Best Practices for Reputation Management

1. Proactively Monitor Your Online Reputation

Businesses must stay ahead of potential reputation risks by regularly monitoring their reviews on Google, Yelp, Facebook, and other review platforms. With GetDandy’s AI-powered review automation, businesses can gain real-time insights and take immediate action.

2. Leverage AI-Powered Review Disputes

Not all negative reviews are fair or legitimate. GetDandy’s proprietary Review Dispute as a Service uses AI and machine learning to identify reviews that violate platform Terms of Service (ToS). Our automated dispute process ensures that flagged reviews are challenged efficiently, increasing the likelihood of removal.

3. Encourage and Generate More Positive Reviews

More positive reviews help outweigh negative feedback and improve rankings in search results. Businesses can:

  • Use QR code guest feedback systems at checkout to encourage satisfied customers to leave reviews.

  • Automate review requests via SMS or email.

  • Display positive reviews prominently on their website with GetDandy’s Review Widget, which can boost conversions by up to 35%.

4. Optimize Review Responses for SEO

Responding to reviews isn’t just about engagement—it’s a powerful SEO tool. GetDandy’s AI Review Response System automates personalized replies while optimizing them for local search rankings, increasing visibility and credibility.
