Responding to the Good, Bad and the Ugly

spacer
How should a small business such as a restaurant handle a bad review or online criticism? The Smart Blog on Social Media, in an article by Jesse Stanchak titled "Responding to the good, the bad and the ugly" suggests having a plan in place, a point person to handle the complaint, recognizing that every business gets a bad review at some point, and trying to turn a negative into a positive by opening a conversation. Most importantly, if a pattern of criticism pinpoints a problem, then the solution is to correct the problem.

Facebook: What's this Negative Comment Doing Here?!

spacer
In "The Pulse", a Ragan publication, Josh McColough outlines a hospital's process of responding to online criticism in an article titled Facebook: What's this Negative Comment Doing Here?!
  Send negative comments to proper departments right away. Then, follow-up with the department to make sure someone contacts the user soon (within 24 hours of the posting).
  Respond to the user with an apology and an assurance of a follow-up.
  Keep the negative comments up, unless they violate Facebook privacy policies (e.g. abusive comments, calling out employees by name, etc.).
