The Easy Way To Get More 5-Star Google Reviews - Lars Kristensen

Here are 3 factoids you should probably know when considering how you’ll take your marketing and sales to the next level:

1. 90% of consumers think reviews are more important than any information provided by salespeople.

2. Reviews are 12x more credible to a customer than the sales copy on your website.

3. While 75% of customers would be willing to provide a review, only 13% of small businesses ask.

That’s a data-driven way of saying: buyers only care about what other customers say about you. And that’s about it.

Great topic, guys. I'd like to see a guest come on who can address Yelp and its review management guidelines. Large pain point for many. I'm looking forward to that episode. Thanks.

This is great!! I thought I knew a lot about this topic but I'm honestly surprised by how much I learned.

I would have to disagree on the 1, 000 review company vs. 100 review company. A lot of consumers are actually looking for a local small business with maybe 3-5 employees that offers a better overall quality personalized experience than a more commercialized and larger company. This is from my experience and from feedback from my customers in the PNW.
