According to a global Nielsen survey, internet users consider consumer recommendations to be the most credible form of advertising. While online referrals exert a lot of power over consumer spending, it’s understood that fake reviews are a problem across all retail platforms.
In fact, a 2017 survey reported that 79% of U.S. consumers believed they read a fake review in the last year. Because customers can be your most powerful brand advocates, it’s more important than ever for companies to gather and use authentic reviews from real, or verified customers.
There are in fact review collection tools that allow the business to “gate” or "Moderate" their reviews which means to remove negative reviews or post only their best reviews, while the others get diverted to a support desk and deleted, never to be seen by the public. There are also review generation tools that send consumers free products in exchange for a positive review. Read on to find out why shopperapproved.com is a legit and trustworthy solution, and what we can do for your business.
Shopper Approved is a review collection and syndication tool. Businesses integrate with our simple, cloud-based application to curate ratings, reviews, and video testimonials from verified customers. The app then distributes the collected reviews to a wide network. For more details on how we syndicate and distribute reviews, see What Does It Mean to Syndicate Reviews?
Shopper Approved collects all three types of reviews:
Shopper Approved clients pay for our tool to curate and distribute reviews, not the reviews themselves. We never use money, prizes, or gifts to gather or influence ratings. All reviews are from verified, legitimate customers, so businesses can be sure they are gaining real customer testimonials. Companies who work with Shopper Approved choose from a variety of pricing plans, depending on the volume and type of reviews they want to collect.
Customer reviews build trust and credibility, but only if those reviews are seen. We put ratings and reviews where your potential customers are, with one of the largest syndication networks online. We have key distribution channels with Google, Yahoo, Bing, and CitySearch, and social plugins for Facebook, Google+, Twitter, and YouTube. And we’re always adding new strategic locations. Businesses can trust that Shopper Approved will get their reviews in the hottest places on the web.
There are two different kinds of reviews collected online: passive and active reviews. Passive reviews are ones that can be submitted by anyone without verifying they’ve used a product or service. They can also be anonymous, so it’s easier for an angry customer or even a competitor to leave negative reviews about your business. This is typically where fake or mostly negative reviews come from.
In contrast, active reviews are solicited by the company through actual customers. These reviews are from consumers a business knows and has worked with. Active reviews invite feedback on both positive and negative reviews. Therefore, active reviews are more legitimate and accurate. They are also correlated with a higher rating. Shopper Approved helps businesses collect and share active reviews, which are better than the passive reviews most companies wait for.
