SOCIAL PROOF
Solution · Negative reviews

One bad review shapes the whole picture

When you have few reviews, every outlier carries weight. New customers read the criticism, and they also notice whether and how you responded.

How to spot it

A one-star review is at the top

And it is the first thing prospects read about you.

Criticism goes unanswered

Because you lack the time or the right words during a busy day.

Your average falls though most people are happy

Unhappy customers tend to write sooner than happy ones.

You hear about criticism too late

Sometimes weeks after the review was posted.

Example scenario

An example: the gym at peak time

The starting point

A gym has only a few reviews. Two complain about crowded equipment in the evening and have sat unanswered at the top for months. Anyone looking for a trial workout reads those first.

How it works with SOCIAL PROOF

  1. 01

    New reviews appear immediately in the dashboard, and the gym is notified.

  2. 02

    AI suggests a factual, personal reply, for example pointing to quieter workout times. The gym reviews and publishes it.

  3. 03

    Members are asked for a review after their trial workout and again after their first few weeks. Anyone who prefers private feedback can send it directly.

The criticism no longer stands alone. Prospects see a professional reply alongside many recent voices.

Frequently asked questions

Can you delete negative reviews?

No. Reviews that breach a platform's policies, such as insults or reviews without genuine customer contact, can be reported to the platform. We can help with that. All other reviews remain visible. A professional response often carries more weight than the criticism itself.

Should I respond to every negative review?

Yes, factually and promptly. Prospects read your response too and see how you deal with criticism.

Will AI publish replies without my approval?

You decide whether AI suggests replies or publishes automatically. For critical reviews, we recommend approving every response yourself.

Are unhappy customers prevented from leaving a public review?

No. A public review is always possible on every plan. From the Boost plan, your customers can additionally choose to write to you privately instead.
