The Challenge

Uncoordinated Review Handling

Each location had its own review process, making it difficult to ensure consistent, timely responses.

Low Review Volume Per Location

Many properties had very few Google reviews, limiting their visibility and credibility with prospective customers.

Limited Reputational Insights

Without a unified system, it was challenging to track customer feedback, gauge audience sentiment, and keep brand responses aligned.

Disjointed Systems

Collectively managing reviews across 60 locations on disparate systems was taxing on local teams and fragmented internal and external communications.

WHAT WE DID

The Solution

Centralized Review Management

We implemented a unified system to track and manage reviews across 60+ locations, leading to faster response times and better organizational oversight of customer sentiment.
