As a tradesperson, customer reviews of your business have never been more important for winning new work. Lots of people search for tradespeople online, and they use reviews to help them choose the right one for the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find out how reviews help your business and how to get genuine ones, in the blog post below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How online reviews help you succeed<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"766\" height=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/blog\/assets\/2021\/06\/online-reviews-1.jpg\" alt=\"Happy customer shaking hands with handyman and giving a positive online review\" class=\"wp-image-38521\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2021\/06\/11210322\/online-reviews-1.jpg 766w, https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2021\/06\/11210322\/online-reviews-1-498x332.jpg 498w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 766px) 100vw, 766px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Reviews help build your reputation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By seeing a history of satisfied customers, new customers can form a picture of how reliable, safe and suitable your business is. All the reviews you get play a big part in pitching your business to potential customers, before you even know who they are. All you have to do is encourage your customers to write reviews and take on all the feedback you get.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Accreditations and certifications will also help customers to see you as an expert. Include any that you hold on your website, social media profiles and anywhere else you can, so customers can see that you\u2019re knowledgeable and suitably qualified to carry out work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Reviews help you tap into new markets<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/blog\/offline-tradespeople-losing-out-on-over-7k-from-millennial-market\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Plusnet<\/strong><\/a>, over 55% of millennials (aged 23 \u2013 38 at time of writing) avoid speaking to a tradesperson in person or over the phone, wherever possible. Instead, they look at online reviews and social media posts to find someone suitable for the job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Reviews help you stand out from your competitors<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The more reviews you have, the better your business looks. It\u2019s important to keep adding to your reviews, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brightlocal.com\/research\/local-consumer-review-survey\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>BrightLocal<\/strong><\/a> research has found that 73% of consumers are only interested in reviews written in the last month. Up-to-date feedback shows potential customers that you\u2019re popular and trusted!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lots of homeowners won\u2019t remember to leave a review of your work. So, once you\u2019ve finished a job, you should tell the homeowner why leaving a review would help you out. Whether it\u2019s because you\u2019ve just set up on your own and want to build up a clientele, or you\u2019ve expanded into a new work area \u2013 make a personal, timely request and you\u2019re more likely to get the review you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3 ways to get genuine reviews<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"766\" height=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/blog\/assets\/2021\/06\/online-reviews-2.jpg\" alt=\"Tradesman smiling at mobile phone\" class=\"wp-image-38520\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2021\/06\/11210317\/online-reviews-2.jpg 766w, https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2021\/06\/11210317\/online-reviews-2-498x332.jpg 498w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 766px) 100vw, 766px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Social media<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From sharing photos of your work on Instagram and Facebook, to tweeting useful tips and even posting quick \u2018how to\u2019 YouTube tutorials, social media is a great way to boost your online reputation. Happy customers are more likely to share their positive reviews on your social media pages if they can see that you\u2019re active.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Your website<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By creating your own website, you\u2019ll have more space to share information about your company than you do on social media. You can keep case studies and testimonials on your website, so potential customers can read about all your happy customers, in one place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. A ratings-based work platform<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A quick and easy way to earn positive homeowner reviews of your work is to join a ratings-based work platform, such as Rated People.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cost of social media advertising and website SEO (so that homeowners find your website easily on search engines like Google) can really rack up if you don\u2019t have the time or knowledge to do it yourself. Through in-built SEO features, a Rated People profile works just like your very own website \u2013 but without the hassle! Plus, it allows you to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/blog\/share-your-ratings-on-social-media\">share your ratings<\/a> to thousands more potential customers on social media, with just the click of a button.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Managing your online reputation<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"766\" height=\"507\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/blog\/assets\/2021\/06\/online-reviews-3.jpg\" alt=\"Tradesperson using laptop\" class=\"wp-image-38519\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2021\/06\/11210312\/online-reviews-3.jpg 766w, https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2021\/06\/11210312\/online-reviews-3-502x332.jpg 502w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 766px) 100vw, 766px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether it\u2019s good or bad, it\u2019s important that you listen and respond to all feedback that you get. A \u2018thank you\u2019 message will suffice for positive reviews. In case it\u2019s a negative one, then follow these 6 simple steps to handling customer complaints online:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" type=\"1\"><li><strong>Be polite<\/strong> \u2013 Respond to the customer within a timely manner, within a week is standard. When you do, thank them for taking the time to share their feedback.<\/li><li><strong>Get the details <\/strong>\u2013 Ask the customer for as much detail as possible, so you can understand exactly what the problem is. Keep a basic spreadsheet of all complaints, so you can spot any trends, too.<\/li><li><strong>Listen carefully <\/strong>\u2013 Acknowledge their complaint, apologise if appropriate and ask them how they\u2019d like it to be resolved. This could be a refund, repair or replacement, for example.<\/li><li><strong>Confirm the solution <\/strong>\u2013 It\u2019s best to do this in writing or by email, to avoid any misunderstandings down the line.<\/li><li><strong>Go further <\/strong>\u2013 If appropriate, you could offer the customer a goodwill gesture, such as a discount.<\/li><li><strong>Follow up <\/strong>\u2013 Once the issue\u2019s solved, contact the customer to see if they\u2019re happy. If there are any delays with resolving their issue, then make sure you let them know.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tap into your existing contacts <\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"766\" height=\"511\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ratedpeople.com\/blog\/assets\/2021\/06\/online-reviews-4.jpg\" alt=\"Group of carpenters in workshop looking at tablet\" class=\"wp-image-38518\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2021\/06\/11210307\/online-reviews-4.jpg 766w, https:\/\/rp-prod-wordpress-b-content.s3.amazonaws.com\/assets\/2021\/06\/11210307\/online-reviews-4-498x332.jpg 498w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 766px) 100vw, 766px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Happy customers are willing to share their experiences more often than you think.
