Responding to Negative Online Reviews Every business owner knows the horror of online reviews. Whether on Yelp, Angie s List, Facebook or Google, the sting of a bad review can stick with you for days. And if you ignore them or delete them, chances are they will only get worse. The No. 1 rule of responding to bad reviews is this: Be quick about it. Follow this three-step plan to deliver timely responses: 1- Monitor. Set up notifications on your Facebook page and any other platform you use to interact with customers or sell online. 2- Contact. Reach out to the frustrated customer immediately with a message letting them know you have received their complaint and you are working to resolve it. Do so by phone, if possible. 3- Follow up. Keep in touch with your customer to resolve their issue and, if appropriate, offer something complimentary for their time. This will increase the likelihood that they will keep buying from you and stop trashing you online! Approach bad reviews as opportunities to demonstrate your customer service. And what frustrates customers most? Being ignored or left waiting for proper service.

Critical Tips For International Business Travel - Traveling for business often takes you places you otherwise might never visit. It s important to follow some specific rules of business etiquette to avoid offending your international counterparts. If you are uncertain about cultural norms, carefully observe your hosts and co-workers while following their lead. 1- Take introductions seriously. In many cultures, relationships and face-to-face interactions are much more important than they are to North American business professionals. 2- Respect business cards. In Asian countries, for instance, business cards are an extremely important symbol (particularly Japan), business cards are always presented to someone with both hands. When you receive a business card, always read it to yourself while you are still standing in front of the person as a sign of respect. 3- Be on time. Every culture has a different standard for punctuality. Regardless of where you do business, you won t go wrong by being on time. 4- Stay awhile. Leaving an event early can also be an unintentional sign of disrespect to the hosts, particularly in Asian cultures. A premature departure could be the death of a deal. 5- Bring a gift. Bringing a gift is an important way to show respect to your host. Even if gifts are not expected, bringing one will show courtesy and earn you respect. 6- Expect to socialize. Social expectations often go far beyond just having dinner. You may be expected to go out to bars or nightclubs, play golf or attend other social activities.

17 Marketing Professionals for the Transportation Industry Since LIMOMARKETING.COM Canada Day Independence Day Miami Beach, FL Visual content is a powerful way to get followers attention on social media. These tips will help your photos make a big impact. 1- Forget the Flash: When using a flash, subjects appear washed out and the photo looks overexposed. Natural light yields more flattering results. 2- Move in Rather Than Zoom In: Although the zoom feature on most phones enlarges the image, the photo will probably be too blurry to share. Instead of zooming, get physically closer to your subject. The closer you are, the better the detail. 3- Focus on Composition: Try to shoot your images at an angle or asymmetrical. Simply use the gridlines on your phone to position the important elements of your photo along the lines and at their intersections. 4- Get Creative: Photographing a team meeting? You might want to focus on a coffee mug (with your company logo) at the corner of the table, leaving the meeting participants in the background. This approach sparks curiosity. *Event dates subject to change.
