ONLINE PRESENCE MANAGEMENT FACTORS
Your brand’s reputation is made up of what people believe about your business from what they are reading on the internet. By employing third-party endorsements you increase the authenticity of your online reputation. Below are the top factors that affect your online trust and reputation, and how you can leverage them for your company.
ONLINE PROPERTIES
Search engines, like Google, get to decide what gets shown about your resort. It may be reviews, your social media pages, online directories, or something else. It’s important to make sure that you are displaying the same message throughout your digital properties in a positive manner.
Claim & Optimize
You need to make sure you claim and brand as many web properties that you can. This includes your business directories, like Yellow Pages, social profiles, and review pages. You need to make sure that the information is accurate and correct on each property.
Interlinking
Now that you’ve claimed the properties, you need to interlink them. This establishes brand authority.
Consistency
Making sure that your address, location, and contact information are correct and the same throughout each digital property will help push up positive content.
REVIEWS
Ensuring that you have positive reviews throughout the internet is one of the most important steps you can take in the hospitality industry. People searching for their dream vacation will look at review sites to determine whether to stay at your beach resort. They are going to spend hundred’s or thousand’s of dollars on their vacation and they want to know if others liked your place. Positive reviews build trust.
Beach Resort Marketing will create a strategy to boost the number of reviews to your resort and increase the value of your current positive reviews through all of your review sites.
SOCIAL MEDIA
Social media now puts your future guests in a powerful position. This is an amazing opportunity for you as a company, to put a face to your brand. Think about it, thousands of people are looking at dozens of places where you are located because they want to have a dream vacation.
Being active and current on social media shows that you care about people. You get to show off your resort, the activities, and your customer service to all the people searching. You can also ask your past guests for some referrals.
Claim Your Turf
You have the opportunity to present your beach resort in a beautiful way to all of your future guests. You need to make sure that every social property conveys that same message. Make sure that you are part of the conversation as well, but do not dominate the conversation. By providing helpful messages, you will become part of a larger community with your guests.
Respond in a timely manner
You can set up processes that allow you to respond to inquiries and messages that are asked from the community. When you respond in a timely manner, you will be remembered as a company that cares and regardless whether the person books with you, they are more likely to share their positive experience with others.
Beach Resort Marketing also provides a very comprehensive social media marketing and management service.
SURVEYING
Getting direct access to your customers opinions through surveys is a great way to stay ahead of negative reviews. By providing a channel for guests to express their thoughts, it makes them feel that you as a company are listening to them and they will be less likely to post a negative review online.
Provide several options
By providing multiple channels of communication, you decrease the chances of having someone find their own channel.
Follow up on negative feedback
Because you are pro-active with a survey and give the guest an opportunity to express their frustration directly to you, it gives you the first chance to communicate with the guest before a negative comment is posted online. Turn negatives into positives.
Take action
By gathering so many comments, it gives you a chance to evaluate your business and make necessary changes that can grow your customer base and processes.
MONITORING
In the hospitality industry, you will have more reviews that most other industries. It is important to closely monitor your online reputation and keep measuring what is being said about your company online. Don’t let all of your efforts be wasted by not monitoring your brand.
Tracking Metrics
What are the top results when your resort is searched for? Do negative comments appear on the first page of Google, dominating over the positive reviews? Are you getting a lot of reviews? What is the star rating?
Setting up alerts
An easy way to monitor your online reputation is to set up alerts for whenever someone posts new information on your brand.
Monthly reporting
Detailed monthly reports on your brands position and how your reputation management is working.
SCORING
Being viewed as having a great reputation is all relative to what your competition is doing. You look great with 4 stars if everyone else has 3.5 stars. To stay ahead of the competition, you need to focus on what makes you great and what you need to work on.
Monitor your immediate competition
What are the other resorts in your area doing with their own reputation online? Are they active in the conversations with their guests? What areas do you see that they are good at that you can use in your own procedures.
Goal Setting
Knowing where your competition is standing allows you to set benchmarks for success. What is the rating of your top competitors and how many reviews do they have? These are numbers you need to target.
