Limit the damage caused by negative comments online
A business may have hundreds of satisfied customers and only one or two that are dissatisfied about something. But it only takes one person to start making disparaging remarks on social media for sales to be affected and put potential customers off doing business with you. Many people go by the old adage, ‘Where there’s smoke, there’s fire.’ But it is not necessarily true. Some people get a power kick out of putting others down and ruining their reputation.
When it comes to doing business, that kind of thing can really affect your bottom line and take years to recover from. Some businesses never recover – mainly because they ignore it. But the problem rarely goes away by itself. It should be tackled with as much determination as you would handle any other problem in your business. The trouble is that while most business owners are good at what they do, they are not so good at knowing how to limit the damage caused by vicious comments online about their business.

Or maybe an old website is causing the problem
Whatever the problem is, it may not even be the customer’s fault. Sometimes an outdated website cause a poor user experience and the customer becomes frustrated. They vent their feelings online as people are wont to do. Even if they get it sorted, they usually don’t bother going back to the original comment to say so. That leaves other people who read the comment, thinking that the problem still exists and they don’t bother trying to figure things out.
