What is Reputation Management?

At its core, Reputation Management is a product that allows you to monitor your online listings for accuracy, as well as keep on top of new reviews and mentions on social media.

Reputation Management gives you the ability to easily manage and monitor your online reputation—all from one place! With Reputation Management, monitor what people are saying about you online and improve your visibility in local searches.

How can Reputation Management help you?

We put all of the tools to monitor and manage your reputation directly in your hands. Through Reputation Management, key pain points are addressed:

  • Being unaware of customers makes you look bad.  Having unanswered online reviews and social posts, or negative mentions is bad for business and highlights a negative reputation for everyone else to see.
  • Incorrect business info is hurting your business. Wrong business information is driving potential customers right to the competition.
  • It’s hard for you to stay on top of what people are saying about you business. There are countless review sources, social sites, and ways for people to talk about your businesses online. It is impossible for you to keep up on their own—never mind the competition.

Reputation Management directly resolves these issues:

    • Allow you  to manage your online reputation from one place: Compile reviews from dozens of sites so you can easily see what’s being said about your business online.  Plus, use competitive benchmarking to see how you stack up against the competition.
    • Show up where people are looking: Improve your business' search rank by identifying online business listings that are inaccurate or missing from essential directories like Google, Facebook, and Bing.
    • See what customers are saying all over the web: Monitor when your business is mentioned in a variety of sources, including news sites, blogs, and social networks. Plus, highlight the most positive and negative mentions using automated sentiment analysis.
    • Stay informed with automated reports and alerts: Executive reports break down how your business is faring in online conversations and help you understand what to do. Alerts are also sent every time new information is found.
