I purchased it because I trusted my friend and his friend had given positive reviews of the product.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Do you know that <strong>92% of online consumers read online reviews<\/strong> before buying a product from a brand?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>If you have a new eCommerce store, a few positive reviews can impact the buying decisions of the customers.&nbsp; To boost your sales, you must focus on gaining the trust of the customers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>There are a ton of ways in which you can encourage the customer to leave a positive review. But if you are planning to grow your business fast, it is better that you create such a fantastic experience that customers rush back to your website to leave a positive review.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Here are five ideas that will help your brand to impact your consumer marketing initiatives.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Online_Reviews_Widgets\"><\/span><strong>Online Reviews Widgets<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-13979\" src=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eCommerce-Reviews.webp\" alt=\"eCommerce-Reviews\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eCommerce-Reviews.webp 1600w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eCommerce-Reviews-300x169.webp 300w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eCommerce-Reviews-1024x576.webp 1024w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eCommerce-Reviews-768x432.webp 768w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eCommerce-Reviews-1536x864.webp 1536w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eCommerce-Reviews-370x208.webp 370w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eCommerce-Reviews-270x152.webp 270w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eCommerce-Reviews-570x321.webp 570w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/eCommerce-Reviews-740x416.webp 740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>On a good day, if you Google, &lsquo;<strong>Online Review Widgets<\/strong>&lsquo;, you&rsquo;ll see around 206 million search results. Most of these widgets are WordPress-based and designed to work with WordPress websites.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>These WordPress widgets are simple, easily installed, and offer a superior user experience, and allow you to integrate the reviews from Facebook, Google into your website.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>When you give customers an option to leave their feedback in one place, you&rsquo;ll create a sense of transparency on the website. When actual customers leave a review, it will be a chance to showcase these reviews to visitors.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Whether the customer will leave a review on <strong>Yelp<\/strong>, <strong>Google<\/strong>, or <strong>Rize<\/strong>, it will help you to get a positive response from people.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Collaborate_with_Local_Bloggers\"><\/span><strong>Collaborate with Local Bloggers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-13980\" src=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/local-influencer-blog-posting.jpg.webp\" alt=\"local-influencer-for-online-reviews\" width=\"1220\" height=\"813\" srcset=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/local-influencer-blog-posting.jpg.webp 1220w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/local-influencer-blog-posting.jpg-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/local-influencer-blog-posting.jpg-1024x682.webp 1024w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/local-influencer-blog-posting.jpg-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/local-influencer-blog-posting.jpg-370x247.webp 370w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/local-influencer-blog-posting.jpg-270x180.webp 270w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/local-influencer-blog-posting.jpg-570x380.webp 570w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/local-influencer-blog-posting.jpg-740x493.webp 740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1220px) 100vw, 1220px\" \/><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The easiest way to generate traffic on your website is to get positive reviews from local bloggers. Send these bloggers a free sample and ask them to leave a review on the site.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Of course, every review is critical, but a single review from an influencer can leave a significant impact on your potential customers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>To begin your search for a local blogger, you can use tools like Right Relevance or GroupHigh and pinpoint influencers who may be interested in your products and services.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>For some influencers, you need to start a conversation before they take any interest in your product. Once a relationship is built, it will be easy to ask them for a product review.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Just like everything else, this, too has a downside. The review will be posted on your website or even your social media page. So, if there is even a single unsatisfied review, it will take ages to recover from negative traction gathered through the review.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The key here is to keep improving your product\/service so that even if you get a negative review, other reviews might cover that up.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Lastly, keep a check on your primary customer audience. For instance, if the audience is 45, do not send a 23-year-old blogger to represent your product.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Social_Media_Advertising\"><\/span><strong>Social Media Advertising<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-13981\" src=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/social-media-ads-for-online-reviews.jpg\" alt=\"social-media-ads-for-online-reviews\" width=\"1170\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/social-media-ads-for-online-reviews.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/social-media-ads-for-online-reviews-300x148.jpg 300w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/social-media-ads-for-online-reviews-1024x504.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/social-media-ads-for-online-reviews-768x378.jpg 768w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/social-media-ads-for-online-reviews-370x182.jpg 370w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/social-media-ads-for-online-reviews-270x133.jpg 270w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/social-media-ads-for-online-reviews-570x281.jpg 570w, https:\/\/branex.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/social-media-ads-for-online-reviews-740x364.jpg 740w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1170px) 100vw, 1170px\" \/><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Social media is a powerful platform to get genuine reviews from customers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Platforms like Twitter and Facebook have a massive amount of data on customer buying psychology. The customers are already there in groups, on pages where they are looking for products that overcome their needs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>When you take advantage of <strong>Facebook<\/strong>, <strong>Twitter<\/strong>, and <strong>LinkedIn<\/strong>, it will be easy for your products to reach the potential market of your customers. You can install social tracking pixels on your website so that you get a better idea of your target audience.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Check-in_Win\"><\/span><strong>Check-in &amp; Win<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Apps like Wikets, Foursquare, and iPoints award points to customers, which can then be converted into points and get discounts.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>You can add a check-in option in your custom mobile app\/website where the consumer can get rewards, points, and even custom discounts when they check in at your store.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>You can also add an option to leave a review and get coupons that you can then avail in the next order.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ask\"><\/span><strong>Ask!<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In the end, it is okay to keep life simple and ask the customers for reviews.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Just like Google Maps, which sends push notifications when people visit a certain place. You can always ask new customers to leave a review on your website. Make the feedback mechanism intuitive to make the feedback process easy. When it comes to repeat customers, they&rsquo;re usually more than happy to share feedback without feeling uncomfortable.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Don&rsquo;t forget to support your family and friends who run a business. It might sound a bit cheesy when your grandpa leaves a review and shares how proud he is of you. But this might start a good stream of reviews from your family and your closest supporters.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_Word\"><\/span><strong>Final Word<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Don&rsquo;t force customers to leave a review for your brand. Make the website experience so enriching that they come back to leave a promising review for your brand. Don&rsquo;t tell the customer how you are different, show them with your service and with your product.<\/p>\r\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have sensitive skin and it goes haywire if I apply something it doesn&rsquo;t approve of.
