If you manage an auto repair shop, you may be questioning whether or not you should encourage online customer reviews. But the right question you should ask is where should your customers’ feedback be seen? Answer: On all search engines for optimal visibility!
Do you know how most consumers find a new automotive repair shop? A recent survey indicated that 97% of consumers rely on consumer reviews when deciding where to service their vehicle(s). So let your customers tell their story to increase your rating on the search engines!
There’s so much potential business right at your fingertips, because potential customers can find you by simply doing an internet search. And the best way to increase your visibility on search engines is through verified customer reviews.
How do you accomplish this? By having your shop’s reviews hosted on all search browsers. All of us have our go-to browsers, and we cannot determine if your customers are using Google, Yahoo, Bing, IE, or other browsers.
When it comes to your repair shop’s reputation, you need to be in the know at all times. The problem is, many review sites allow manipulation through submissions of anonymous reviews, deletion of poor reviews and other tactics. If you are curious about the visibility of your shop on the web, simply type your business name and “reviews” in multiple browsers, and that will instantly shine a light onto your internet presence.
As a partner with SureCritic™ for 10+ years, Mitchell 1’s SocialCRM shop marketing program recognizes that this savvy company is one of the best sources for verified reviews.
