Every Thursday we offer a way to give back in the community. For this week’s Give Back Thursday, we suggest a Positive Review! Read on for more details.
Have you ever looked online for information about a business? Perhaps you wanted to learn more about them before spending money there. How often do you look at the reviews others give online for a business? These reviews may be found on Google, Yelp, etc. Do these reviews impact whether or not you do business with someone?
For this week’s Give Back Thursday, we suggest a Positive Review. Please consider giving a local business a positive review on Google, Yelp, or whatever online platform you think would be helpful. In this world, people are very quick to criticize and let faults be known. However, people are less quick to leave a positive review. This may be because people have the expectation of good service, good food, etc. So, rather than reward receiving what they expect by giving positive reviews, they just let things go unsaid. A positive review can be extremely helpful for a local business. Stop and think about the businesses that meet and/or exceed your expectations. Give them the positive review they deserve but rarely ask for. Your positive review could encourage other people to try this business. Right now, that review bringing in a new customer could be a game changer for our local businesses.
We hope everyone takes advantage of this week’s Give Back Thursday suggestion to give a Positive Review! This is a small task that can have a big impact.
