Best practices for responding to client reviews

To enhance your impact and better respond to your customers, we offer some tips to help you optimize your responses and save time.

Enable notifications

In the Profile section of your platform, enable notifications. We recommend turning them on continuously, at least for your first few weeks of use. This way, you will receive real-time email alerts notifying you of new customer feedback. You won’t miss any messages and can quickly address dissatisfaction alerts! Learn more

Set up your automatic signature

In the same section, set up your automatic signature. Provide your first name, last name, position, and company. The platform offers various signature options. For maximum personalization, we suggest including your first name, position, and company. Your signature will automatically appear in the response box, saving you time while maintaining personalization in your messages. Learn more

Reply quickly to all your messages

It is crucial to respond quickly to all your messages to maximize your impact. At Goodays, we recommend addressing a dissatisfaction alert within 24 hours and other messages within 48 hours.

Respond to Google reviews

Unlike responses to reviews received via transactional email, in-store displays, etc., responses to Google reviews are public and visible on your store’s Google page. When responding to a Google review:

  • Provide a simple and personalized response without too many details.
  • Invite the customer to visit the store to discuss the situation.
  • Avoid sharing personal information, confronting the customer, telling them they are wrong, or asking questions in your response. To learn more about identifying the review source (Google, email, SMS), read this article.

Activate the spell checker

In the response box, make sure the spell checker is activated (blue icon):

spellchecker-1

This ensures your responses are free of spelling, grammar, conjugation, or syntax errors!
