Exactly what is it your software service and what can it do for my business?

Our software is called a SAAS(software as a service). It was made intentionally for one purpose and that it helps improve our small business customers online reputations by increasing positive reviews while minimizing negative reviews.

Our service has the capability of listing your customer's reviews with dozens of sites, such as Google, Facebook, Trip Advisor, Yelp, and much much more (go to the bottom of this page to see all of the integrations which are currently available).

Our customers have the option of managing their own reviews or have us do it for them at no additional cost.

What can I do to help in getting only positive reviews?

Our software service enables our clients to track, collect information, and respond to reviews.

It is is designed in such a way so that positive 4 and 5 star reviews get posted directly to review sites while lower starred 1-3 reviews get redirected to the business owner (via email and a holding area within our software) where they can better communicate with customers and have a way to investigate and correct problems in the course of their daily business operations.

Why should I choose Local Business Network?

At LocalBizNet.com we are commited to personalized service, data-driven strategies, and measurable results. We are dedicated to helping local businesses succeed, because we ARE a local small business. We fully understand and empathize with our customers.

Exactly what can your software DO for my business?

Our specilized reputation management software was created to get small business owners more reviews from customers and visitors.

Our software can integrate with over 40 various platforms (see the list on the lower portion of this page), which also gets listed back to Google through organic reach and Googles search algorythms. 

Google LOVES reviews, because it actually helps them get content to put on their pages.

The more positive reviews you have on Google, the more customers you will get walking through your doors.

If you've ever typed in you phone browser, "restraunts near me", this is just one example of how this works for local businesses.

The business in a specific category with the highest positive reviews will be higher up on the page listing.

What can I do to offset any negative reviews on my business?

As a business owner, you will inevitably have someone who is dissatisfied with your product or service for one reason or another.

Actually, there are some people who go out of there way to cause trouble. We found the best way to offdset negative reviews is by getting a higher percentage of positives and thats where we come in.

Why should I choose YOU to help me with my reputation and review management?

To put it in simple terms, reputation management is what we do best!

Unlike other marketing companies that focus on too many things that don't matter for local small businesses, we focus on public perception of your business.

It's all about your reputation and how the public perceives your business that matters.

This is done through the public review process and the results determine whether a new or existing customer visits you or not.

Yes, there is a time and place for bringing in customers with ads, but most people don't like to be SOLD and would rather do a simple search online to find you through their own efforts.

Of course, we do also offer other services, but those services are mainly to help our current customers improve their brand.

How long before I see results with reviews?

Of course we have no control over the various online platform's algorythms, but as long as your customers visit our specialized software and leave a review, we guarantee you will get results!

The more customers who leave 4 and 5 positive reviews, the higher your ranking will be...

in other words, it grows over time, so the longer you stick with the review process, the better you will be.

What other services do you provide?

As stated, our main business is a software service which was created to get you more customers by helping you get more reviews, which is a form of search engine optimization (SEO).
