The Reputation Gap in Retail

Online reviews are the new window display. If shoppers don't like what they see online, they'll never walk through your door.

  • In-Store Customers Don't Review
    Hundreds of transactions per day but only a handful of reviews per month. The result? Your 30 reviews are drowned out by the competitor next door with 500.
  • Multi-Store Inconsistency
    Your flagship store is a 4.6. Three other locations are below 4.0. When shoppers search by neighborhood, those stores are invisible.
  • Stale Listings Lose Customers
    Seasonal hours, new product lines, store events — if your Google listing says you close at 6 PM and a shopper arrives at 7, you've lost a sale and earned a 1-star review.
