Reputation Management

Q: What is online reputation management and why does my business need it?

Online reputation management is the process of monitoring, improving, and protecting your brand’s presence across review sites, search engines, and social media platforms. It’s not just about getting more reviews—it’s about making sure potential customers see accurate, up-to-date, and positive information about your business before they decide to buy.

Q: How do you collect customer reviews for my business?

We use automated review request tools that reach customers through text message, email, or QR codes displayed at your location. You choose the methods that work best for your audience, and we handle the setup so you can consistently gather high-quality reviews without adding more to your workload.

Q: Where will my customer reviews appear online?

You can direct satisfied customers to the platforms that matter most for your business, including your Google Business Profile, Facebook, or industry-specific review sites. We also collect private feedback that remains between you and the customer, giving you insights without affecting your public reputation.

Q: Who writes and posts the responses to my online reviews?

Our service includes AI-assisted review responses that match your brand voice and address each customer’s feedback directly. You can approve or edit each reply before it’s posted, or we can fully manage the review response process for you.

Q: What should I do if my business gets a bad review?

When a negative review appears, we notify you immediately so we can respond quickly and professionally. We’ll help you address the customer’s concerns and, when possible, turn a poor experience into a positive resolution—minimizing the impact on your reputation.

Q: Will managing my online reviews take up a lot of my time?

No. Once your system is in place, our review management tools run in the background. You can choose to be as involved or hands-off as you like, while we take care of monitoring, collecting, and responding to reviews.

Q: How can I track improvements in my online reputation?

You’ll receive detailed monthly reports showing the number of reviews collected, your average ratings across platforms, your top review sources, and how your overall reputation is trending over time.

Q: Can I display customer reviews on my website?

Yes. We include a customizable review widget and trust badge that display your latest 5-star reviews directly on your site. These features also use SEO-friendly schema markup to help your reviews appear in search results.

Q: Do I need a website from Cougar Digital to use this reputation management service?

Nope! While we love designing websites (and do a great job at it 😉), this service works with any website or marketing platform. We’ll help you integrate it smoothly wherever you are.

People trust stars, not slogans.

Before a customer clicks your website or picks up the phone, they’re Googling you. And what they find—good or bad—shapes their first impression. We help you take control of that story by building a steady stream of positive reviews, managing feedback, and keeping your reputation as strong online as it is in real life.

If they’re happy with your service, they’re directed to leave a public review on platforms like Google and Facebook—boosting your visibility and credibility. If they’re not fully satisfied, they can share feedback privately, giving you the chance to address concerns, resolve the issue, and protect your relationship before it impacts your public reputation.
