Why Do We Need To Be On Offense With Yelp?
● Feedback Happens. If you’re not providing your own visible, exciting means of talking to you, your customers will still talk – via public sites like Yelp.
● Unhappy, Unfiltered. Customers who might otherwise share an unhappy experience directly with you (so you can take action) do so publicly. This feedback is often difficult to pin down or act on.
● When SEO Hurts You. Local Google searches bring Yelp results to the top of searches – including damaging ones! Customers deciding whether or not to visit you see these responses front and center. This can negatively impacting their decision to visit your store or location.
In this example of a Google search using Bassett Furniture as an example, Yelp’s review of Bassett Furniture even beats Bassett’s own search rank.

If You’re Not Listening, They’re Still Talking
• If you’re not actively asking for feedback, customers still talk publicly – and a disproportionate amount of that talk will be negative.
• Positive people need a little reminder or reason to give feedback. Complainers already have that reason – they’re upset.
• Tell your own story, take control…
With nowhere elseto share feedback, all
customers give it publicly.
