The Importance of Client Reviews
Reviews are important for a variety of reasons. They are important for a business because they contribute to the company’s reputation and equip the business with valuable feedback moving forward. Reviews are also important for customers because they provide the customers with more information and background on the business/brand and allow customers to communicate their personal experiences with the business and other customers.
Below are a few of the best websites/platforms to post and view reviews. Not only should you be keeping an eye on the reviews that you receive across these platforms, but you should also be making sure that your clients are able to easily find/review you on these as well (if they apply to the industry you’re in).
