Supporting Clients
How does Yelp benefit my clients?
Answer:
A strong presence on Yelp will get your clients in front of purchase-ready customers at scale. Tens of millions of people use Yelp each month, and while most are undecided about who exactly to work with or buy from when searching the platform, almost all of them make a purchase after visiting. You can seize this opportunity for your clients to remain top-of-mind at the moment of decision.
How can I help my clients understand how their reviews are managed on Yelp?
Answer:
It is important to clarify that whether your client chooses to advertise on Yelp or not has no bearing on the reviews that appear on their business’s listing. Yelp’s review recommendation software is designed to identify and recommend the most reliable and helpful content. More information can be found here.
