Want Your Voice To Matter?

Well, it does.

Last week in Forester Feed, I cited a Nielsen report stating that 92% of people trust recommendations from friends and family over any other type of advertising. This week, I want to take that information a step further. Did you know that about 90% of people regularly read online reviews, and 84% of those folks trust online reviews as much as a personal recommendation? (Source)

These numbers matter in marketing because YOU can do something about it. YOU can write an online review. In fact, those online reviews can have a significant impact on SEO (Search Engine Optimization, or how a business ranks in a Google search). 

Reviews can be written on Facebook and Google (PS – though we like the Facebook ones, it’s the Google ones that can really be a game changer). These reviews are then read by hundreds of consumers. Those consumers then make a quick judgment about that business. Studies show that 68% of review readers form an opinion after reading between one and six online reviews.
