Why It Matters
The speed of response to a review significantly impacts its effect on your reputation. Responding within 24 hours to negative reviews can prevent reputation damage and sometimes leads to the reviewer updating their rating. Without monitoring, reviews can go unnoticed for weeks, missing the critical window for effective response.
