Research shows that 71% of users are more likely to recommend a company that responds swiftly to them on social media. So, always make sure to respond fast to reviews whether they are positive or negative. If you respond to a negative review quickly enough, you may be able to remedy the problem and have the unfavourable review removed by the user. Featured Image Source: Travelstart
