Brand Reputation Management That Builds Trust and Drives Growth

Your online reputation can make or break a customer’s decision to work with you. Positive reviews build trust and credibility, while unanswered complaints can turn potential customers away.

At Clicksmith, our Reputation Management services are designed to help you take control of your online image. We monitor your reviews across platforms, respond promptly and professionally, and create strategies to generate more positive feedback.

And because reviews are such a critical part of Google Business Profile performance, our Reputation Management service pairs perfectly with our Google Business Profile Management offering to maximize both visibility and trust.

FAQs

There isn’t a magic number, but steady recent reviews and a 4.5+ average usually build confidence.

  • Aim for recency: a few new reviews each month looks healthier than a big burst once a year.

  • Quality over volume: detailed reviews that mention the service and outcome help more than one-word praise.

  • Balance: invite feedback across your main services, not just one.

  • We set a 90-day review-velocity target based on your job volume, then report average rating and recency in Google Business Profile (GBP).

Monitoring, response, review growth, and content that puts your best proof forward.

  • Monitoring and alerts for Google Business Profile (GBP), Facebook, Yelp, and industry sites.

  • Response playbooks for positive, neutral, and negative reviews, plus owner-response templates.

  • Review growth system: request flows via email or Customer Relationship Management (CRM), on-site prompts, and QR assets.

  • In month one we deliver a profile audit, review-request setup, and a simple calendar for responses and posts.

Most small businesses invest $500 to $2,500 per month depending on locations and volume. We have packages for every budget and can scale as you grow.

  • Factors: number of locations, review volume, response coverage, and whether you need PR or content help.

  • Add-ons: survey/Net Promoter Score (NPS), listings sync, photo management, or outreach for press and features.

  • Your plan lists the sites we monitor, response-time targets, and the review-request triggers/channels we enable (email, SMS, QR code), plus who on your team approves responses.

Expect early movement in 30–60 days from better responses and fresh reviews, with steadier gains over 90 days as volume builds.

  • Lift rating by increasing positive review velocity and reducing unanswered negatives.

  • Improve visibility by publishing helpful content and completing profiles so more positive results appear on page one.

  • Reality check: removal is limited by platform rules, so we focus on earning and highlighting genuine positives.

  • We set baselines for average rating, review velocity, and response time, then compare at 30/60/90 days.
We can flag and appeal reviews that violate policy, but Google decides. Legitimate negative experiences usually cannot be removed.

  • Removable if they violate rules like spam, hate, off-topic, conflicts of interest, or explicit language.

  • If not removable, respond professionally, offer a resolution path, and counterweight with new, verified reviews.

  • We document each flag or appeal and keep you informed of the outcome.

  • We cite Google’s review policy when we appeal, and share the platform’s decision. Google policy

Document, flag under policy, reply briefly, then outpace with genuine reviews.

  • Collect evidence: screenshots, dates, and why it violates policy (off-topic, conflicts of interest, spam).

  • File the report: submit a policy-based flag and, when eligible, an appeal. We track status and keep you updated.

  • Public reply: a short, calm note inviting the reviewer to contact you directly. Do not escalate.

  • Counterweight: request fresh reviews from verified customers via Customer Relationship Management (CRM) email or SMS flows.

Start with Google Business Profile (GBP), then pick 1–2 industry sites your buyers actually check.

  • Common winners: Yelp for many local services, Healthgrades for healthcare, Avvo for legal, Houzz for home services, G2/Capterra for software.

  • Prioritize where prospects research and where profiles rank on page one for your keywords.

  • In month one we identify the top two non-Google sites by referral traffic in Google Analytics 4 (GA4) and by search presence, then fully complete those profiles.

  • Keep the list short so you can monitor and respond reliably.

Increase recent positives, fix root causes, and show progress publicly.

  • Ask at the right moment: trigger review requests right after successful jobs so happy customers recall details.

  • Fix the pattern: if negatives mention the same issue, adjust the process and say so in your replies.

  • Invite updates: when you resolve a complaint, politely ask the customer to consider revising their review.

  • We set a 90-day improvement plan with targets for recent reviews and average rating, then report progress in Google Search Console (GSC) and Google Business Profile (GBP).
