Don’t believe a negative review will ruin your business. Thru the years and all our surveys, the one common factor that has never has changed is that most people trust a business that is not perfect. They know you can’t please everybody, but they say how the business responds to a complaint or review is what really matters to most customers.
With that being said, We asked: “Are you more likely to do business with a 5 star perfect record or a 4.8 star business that responds to a negative review?”
Yes, over 80% of those surveyed said the 4.8 stars as long as the business response was not negative or an attack on the reviewer.
