    Wondering if anyone has had any experience with "review removal companies" such as removebadreviews.com, your.reputation-guards.com, guaranteedremovals.com, feedbackclarity.com, etc...

    "Useless and yet indispensable" // Local Marketing Insider #037

    A little exercise: Say you went to Amazon to find a product, but this time all of the review content was gone. You would feel the vacuum. The isolation.

    Adding model reviews on used car listings?

    Recently I was thinking of how to help bump up leads for online dealerships.

So how about adding a review widget...

    Does Asking Customers for Voice Reviews Make Sense?

    Listening to a podcast the other day and the host asked for "voice memos" to be sent to an email address. It got my brain going 100MPH because that's how it works and I was wondering if asking customers for VOICE REVIEWS would make sense for an auto dealership. What do you think? Because I am...

    Facebook reviews: Formula & Timing?

    Does anyone have knowledge or experience with influencing Facebook reviews/ratings? In late 2018 FB converted from actual star-ratings to "recommend" or "doesn't recommend", along with "other data signals" to calculate a star-rating.
