ABOUT US
DRAWING ON COMBINED EXPERIENCE IN SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT AND MARKETING IN THE SERVICES SECTOR, WE SAW A PROBLEM.
Companies today are fighting a war that they rarely realize exists.
The last 15 years saw the rise of the web from a nice-to-have to a primary channel in almost every company’s marketing mix. Originally, the web was mostly a one-way communication channel. Businesses put their message out for potential customers to discover. That information rarely flowed both ways until the last few years.
Online reviews gave customers a voice that changed how people discover and choose the businesses they use. Today, consumers rarely make a purchase over $100 without consulting some form of online review or rating. Even more important though, is the role of reviews in discovery.
Search for any local business and you’ll most likely see a location and reviews first. If they don’t have any, you’ll often see their competitor who does.
Your reviews don’t just affect how well customers convert, but they affect other things including where you rank when people search through to how much you pay for a click from your paid advertising.
As companies focussed on strategies around backlinks and social media posting in an attempt to keep up with their competition, many failed to realize that this was becoming less relevant. Locally focussed businesses today face several newer and arguably more important issues:
Monitoring the conversations happening about their business on review sites, directories and social media
Influencing their visible reputation by building a better online customer experience
Capturing direct, actionable feedback from their customers and being able to extract both qualitative and quantitative insights to improve their product, service and marketing message.
