Introducing Broadly’s Review Platform

Online reviews are the word-of-mouth recommendations of the internet. For local service businesses, they can be the competitive edge you were looking for because, let’s be honest here, what people say about your business online matters. Good and bad feedback directly affects how others perceive you and whether they choose your services.

In online reputation management, there is no room for error, and this is why you need a robust review platform to keep your public image in check.

Why Businesses Need a Review Management Strategy

Imagine this: You’re hosting a party, and people are talking about it afterward. Some praise the decorations, others mention the great music, but there’s one person who was not at all impressed. How would you respond? 

The same applies to online reviews. Having a plan to engage with feedback, whether good or bad, is important. It’s not just about reviews; it’s about actively showing you care about your customers.

Enter Review Platforms

There is a reason why Yelp, Google, and Facebook are called platforms—they are virtual podiums that raise you up and help you get noticed. It’s your chance to actively participate, shape your narrative, and influence how people perceive your business.

Understanding Review Platforms

How Review Platforms Shape Online Reputation

Picture this: You’re choosing to eat out at a restaurant. Do you go to the one with a line out the door or the one with an empty dining room? That’s the power of perception, and review platforms are where this perception is built. Each review adds a piece of the puzzle, creating a clearer picture of your business in the minds of potential customers.

Influence on Customer Trust and Decision-Making

Customers trust other customers and reviews influence decisions. Your online presence on these platforms isn’t just about ratings; it’s about cultivating trust and guiding people in their decision-making journey.

Key Features

Automated Review Requests

Imagine having a dedicated assistant tirelessly working to gather feedback from your satisfied customers. That’s the magic of automated review requests. Broadly’s platform takes the manual effort out of the equation by automatically reaching out to your customers post-service. This feature not only saves you time but also ensures you never miss an opportunity to turn a happy customer into a positive online advocate.

Broadly allows you to customize the timing of your review requests, ensuring they reach your customers when the positive experience is still fresh in their minds. This personalized communication approach not only increases the likelihood of a positive review but also strengthens your relationship with your customers.

The Power of Automated Review Requests

Breaking Down the Process

Automated Review Requests follow a simple yet impactful process. After a customer has experienced your service, Broadly’s platform sends them a friendly SMS or email request to share their thoughts. The request is carefully timed, maximizing the chances of a positive response. This automated process turns a potentially cumbersome and unnatural-feeling task into an effortless and enjoyable experience for both parties.

Understanding the Customer Interaction Points for Requesting Reviews

The key to successful reviews lies in the art of timing and engagement. Broadly identifies the optimal interaction points throughout the customer journey, ensuring that review requests are sent at moments when your customers are most likely to provide positive feedback. Whether it’s post-purchase, post-service, or another pivotal touchpoint, our platform is strategic about the way it engages customers for reviews.

Customizable Templates for Maximum Engagement

Customization is the key to maximum engagement. Broadly provides customizable review request templates, allowing you to infuse your brand’s personality into every interaction. Tailor your requests to match your business’s tone and style, creating a personalized experience that resonates with your customers.
