Reply to every Google review, even the bad ones
Replies show customers and Google that you care, and they help you stand out on the map.
People read your replies as much as the reviews. A short, friendly reply to every review shows you're active and that you care.
- Good review: thank them by name and mention what they bought. "Thanks Ayesha, glad you loved the birthday cake!"
- Bad review: reply within a day, stay calm, apologise for the experience and offer to sort it out by phone or WhatsApp. Never argue in public.
Future customers judge you on how you handle complaints, often more than on the complaint itself.
