MYTH: Most Yelp Reviews are Negative 
FACT: Nearly 80% of Yelp Reviews are 3-Stars or Higher 
Distribution of All Reviews 
1 Star 
13% 
2 Stars 
8% 
Negative reviews play an important role too: 
• A variety of experiences are consistent with real life 
• You can’t please 100% of your customers 100% of the time
Negative Review? Stop, Drop & Roll. 
1. Stop - Don't respond immediately. The best advice I've received is to 
sleep on it (although I typically lose sleep over such reviews). Waiting 24 
hours can make all the difference. 
1. Drop - Drop the prideful, defensive and harsh response. Let a trusted co-worker 
or friend read through your response before posting. Remember, 
taking the high road is rarely a bad idea. 
1. Roll - Roll with it. In the end, you can't control the opinions of your 
clients. Attempt to mend any valid issues this person presented through 
their review. Keep providing the best possible service and products. Do 
those things and the more affectionate reviews will exponentially 
multiply!
Tip #1: Craft Responses You Can Be Proud Of…
Tip #2: Say ‘Thank You’, State Your Policy and Respond Promptly
