Reputation Management in Sidmouth — FAQs

Can I remove a bad Google review?

Only if it breaches Google's policies — for example spam, conflict of interest or offensive content. Genuine negative opinion cannot be removed, but it can be answered well.

Is it against the rules to ask customers for reviews?

No. Asking is allowed and encouraged. Incentivising, filtering out unhappy customers, or writing reviews yourself is not.

How do I market to an older customer base online?

Prioritise clarity, legibility, obvious phone contact and credible proof, and avoid interfaces that require multiple steps before someone can simply get in touch.
