Respect privacy
Be mindful not to share confidential information about the customer and
stick to what is available on TripAdvisor, i.e. person’s avatar. It’s therefore
important not to dispell:
- Personal details about the stay or experience
- Phone number or email address
- Any other personal elements taken outside of TA context

4 golden rules to responding
When addressing a negative comment:
1. Thank the client for taking time to share a review
2. Apologize for situation or event that took place
3. Address specifically what you can and will do to
correct the mentioned situation or how it can be
mitigated in the future
4. Invite client once again – try to get a second chance
to make a good first impression!

4 golden rules to responding
When addressing a positive comment:
1. Thank the client for taking time to share a review
2. Acknowledge the kudos and pass on to staff, if
applicable
3. Spin brand values and why such comments are
appreciated
4. Invite client once again – it’s cheaper(and wiser) to
bank on repeat business than always acquiring!
