Win The Trust Of Your Customers By Responding Quickly To Negative PR

Social media makes it easier than ever for companies to keep an eye on what is being said about them. Listening though is just one piece of the puzzle — the other is actually interacting with your audience. By interacting with your audience when you might get bad feedback or other bad PR, you can rebuild trust with those customers, and turn a bad situation into a good one.

Respond directly in the comment section

By responding directly in the comments on a YouTube channel, or on a podcast’s Instagram profile, you show that you care about their thoughts about your company.

This can build a great deal of trust with customers. If something inaccurate is said about your brand in a YouTube video or podcast, be sure to correct the information, to ensure your customers and potential customers have the best impression of your brand possible.

Ensure however that you use your official company account to respond to any negative comments — doing so from a personal account can be seen as unprofessional. If your company has made any kind of mistake, be sure to apologise and take responsibility for the issue. Make sure you provide a solution to the problem to regain the trust of your customers.

A disagreement involving your business or brand can be an opportunity to make it even stronger. Use these opportunities to strengthen your product and service offering.

Monitor what’s being said
