Fun Fact

DID YOU KNOW: 58% of consumers share their positive brand experiences on social media platforms and 72% of consumers will trust a brand more after reading a positive review.

Online reputation management (ORM) What is online reputation management? Reputation management refers to the influencing and controlling of a group’s reputation online.

Social media reputation management Social media reputation management is the process of tracking, monitoring, listening and engaging with online conversations in order to positively shape your brand perception on social media.

Where to manage your reputation

• Social media (Facebook reviews, Yelp) • Mentions on other websites and in blog posts • Online review sites (Trustpilot, Tripadvisor) • Local business directories (Yellow pages, business discovery apps) • Google my business

Benefits of reputation management • Build trust: consumers are more likely to trust other people than brands, a visibly good reputation online

enhances trust in your brand • Increase profits: higher ratings builds trust and therefore leads to more purchases • Attracts top talent: people want to work for companies that have growth potential and if they see a whole lot of

one star reviews that doesn’t signify growth, they are also looking for companies that share the same beliefs and values - positive reviews show that your company has a favourable culture which attracts high quality talent

• Overcome challenges more easily: generally companies with a good reputation and core values that are aligned with their clientele can weather a social media crisis better than those with negative reviews

Lesson outcomes • Social media reputation management • Keys to successful social media reputation management • Community management • Community management strategies • Social media budget allocation

Keys to successful reputation management

• Focus on engagement: respond to queries online, listen to what the customer has to say and solve their challenges to build trust and loyalty.

• Resolve issues that could affect your reputation: Customers don’t usually mind if something goes wrong but they want a response and a solution to their challenge. Customers generally expect a response from a brand within 4 hours but the average company only responds within 10 hours.

• Focus on increasing reviews: read your reviews and check what customers are saying, monitor and engage with reviews, if a customer has had a good experience send them a link to review, post positive comments to social media, this includes user generated content, and ask for reviews in a non-direct manner, feature your positive reviews on your website.

• Focus on Google and Facebook: these are among the top two sites that consumers check when researching a product or service and post to about their experience. According to an online reviews survey, 63.6% of consumers will read google reviews before visiting a business.

• Infer insights from reviews: like looking into your data, you can gauge how users are feeling about your brand - what is good and what is bad - and then devise actions that you can take from this information.

Keys to successful reputation management

• Company name • Company product or services • High-profile employees • Popular industry keywords • Competitors

Online reputation management tools

• Google Alerts • Grade us • Delighted • Sproiutsocial • Reputology • Rankur

Community Management What is community management

The process of building an authentic community around a business’ brand with customers, employees and partners through various brand interactions to connect, share and grow.

Benefits of community management • Our community management has to be applied to our entire customer journey andbasically forms part of our

customer service. • The ultimate goal of community management is to grow and engage with a specific audience within the brand’s

owned social space to attract potential customers or drive potential customers to make a purchase. • Actively applying community management to nurture and cultivate online relationships will improve your

chances of converting followers to customers and improving your return on investment (ROI). Social media has

• FAQ Page on your website: self help option where users can get quick answers to the most commonly asked questions. Straight forward and saves your team time.
