How do you get a satisfied customer to become an online advocate? Here are tips on how to ask for reviews to help bolster your business.
Outside of the food and hospitality industry, it can be a real struggle for businesses to get positive reviews.

Tip the review balance back in your favor by getting those happy customers to be your online advocates. Below, I’ll share some tips, best practices and tests you can run to get more positive reviews.
