Business Reputation Management

Business Reputation Management is a process of constantly monitoring and managing your company’s online presence so that your business is perceived in an accurate and positive light, allowing you to gain new customers and stand out against competitors.

 

What is business reputation management

It's hard work owning a business, and reputation management for businesses and organizations matters more than ever.Business Reputation Management

Business owners can spend years developing a strong and reputable brand, but a poor online reputation can instantly tear all of that hard work apart. With so many forums, review sites, news sites, and social media sites out there, it can be tough to monitor what consumers are saying about your company. However, it is crucial to your business’s success to have a clean online profile and stay informed by practicing smart, effective reputation management.

Just one negative article, whether it is accurate or not, can put your reputation in a crisis and have a massive effect on the success of your business.

According to a Harvard Business School Study on Reviews, Reputation, and Revenue: a one-star rating decrease can reduce revenues by nearly 10% for a business.

Why Do You Need Business Reputation Management?

Reputation management for businesses is becoming increasingly important in a fast-paced environment where companies are constantly innovating, growing, and increasing competition. Running a business comes with a load of responsibilities. There is a lot to take care of and a business’s online reputation can often get neglected. However, a company’s online image is often what consumers first look to when considering a new product or service. With the internet so easily accessible through mobile devices, tablets, laptops, and home computers, consumers are doing their research before they buy anything, from their next meal to a new vacation home. If your company is not ranking well in the search results, or a lot of negative information is showing up about your company, you are handing potential new customers right over to your competitors. Failing to effectively monitor and manage your business reputation will lead to losses in sales, positive press coverage, as well as hiring ability.

Creating a positive online reputation for businesses and corporations is an ongoing, continuous process essential to the success of any business, both large and small.

Whether your business needs business reputation crisis management now or is trying to prevent one from happening in the near future, it is important to look at all of your options and take the first step. The first step in preventing a reputational crisis is developing a reputation management action plan which can consist of a consultation with a dedicated account manager at Reputation911.
