4. Trouble is it’s Hard to Get
Positive Reviews in Practice
People more likely to share negative reviews online
than positive ones
Only takes a few negative reviews online to sink
your online reputation and sales
That’s why you need a way to get as many positive
reviews as possible to counter any negative ones.
