For us it’s pretty simple. It’s building a five-star reputation online and then going out and marketing that reputation. This is quickly becoming the most powerful and most trusted type of marketing that any business can do.

Your online reputation is important. With the large and ever-growing base of customers researching and evaluating businesses, your online reputation can gravely affect your potential client’s purchasing decision. For this reason it is vital to the success of your business that you are monitoring your online reputation and responding immediately to any negative reviews. These actions will counter the negative advertising and proactively  provide positive material with regards to your business, products and services.
