protecting your brand

In today’s digital age, your online reputation is more important than ever. A single negative review or unfavorable news article can have a lasting impact on your business, driving away potential customers and damaging your brand image. At boardroomPR, a leading Florida PR firm, we understand the critical role online reputation management (ORM) plays in building trust and promoting business growth.

This comprehensive guide will detail our expert ORM services, providing valuable insights into how we help our clients in Florida:

Monitor and identify online conversations

We take a proactive approach, utilizing advanced monitoring tools to track brand mentions across a diverse range of online platforms, including:

  • Search Engines: We monitor search results for your brand name, relevant keywords, and competitor analysis. This helps us identify potential issues early on, such as negative news articles or outdated information that could impact search rankings.
  • Review Sites: Customer reviews on platforms like Google My Business, Yelp, and industry-specific review sites hold immense power. Our team actively monitors these platforms, looking for new reviews and responding promptly.
  • Social Media: Social media platforms like Facebook, X, Instagram, and industry-specific forums are breeding grounds for online conversations. We monitor these platforms for mentions of your brand, both positive and negative, to ensure timely engagement.
  • Industry Websites & Blogs: News articles, blog posts, and online discussions within your industry can significantly impact your reputation. Our team keeps an eye on these platforms, identifying opportunities to promote positive brand mentions and address any potential negativity.
  • Traditional Media: Online versions of newspapers, magazines, and local news outlets are still relevant. We monitor these platforms to ensure accurate reporting and address any misinformation.

Keyes has partnered with BoardroomPR for over 7 years. We started with them to promote the rebranding of a 93-year-old brokerage that needed publicity as the largest family-owned brokerage in Florida. Don, Eric, and Daniel have been part of our team since then, bringing eyes to our company, leadership, realtors and thought leaders in the industry. Just over a year ago we added their social media management and video creation service, and Veronika has absolutely transformed our platforms.

Respond strategically to online mentions

Once we identify online mentions, we develop a well-defined response strategy.

  • Positive Reviews: We encourage our clients to acknowledge positive reviews with a sincere thank you. This demonstrates appreciation for customer feedback and encourages further positive interactions.
  • Negative Reviews: Negative reviews require a thoughtful and swift response. We will help craft a professional and empathetic response that addresses the customer’s concerns and outlines a solution.
  • Neutral Mentions: Even neutral mentions present an opportunity to engage. We may suggest a friendly comment or share additional information about your brand.
  • Social Media Interactions: Social media is a dynamic environment. We will help craft engaging responses to comments and messages, fostering positive brand conversations.

Develop and implement a customized ORM strategy

Every client has unique needs. We collaborate closely with you to develop a customized ORM strategy tailored to your specific industry, target audience, and brand goals. This strategy may include:

  • Search Engine Optimization (SEO): We optimize your online presence by creating high-quality content that promotes your brand and pushes down negative search results.
  • Content Marketing: Develop compelling content that showcases your expertise and positive customer experiences to strengthen your online presence.
  • Social Media Management: Create engaging social media content and actively participate in relevant online conversations to foster positive brand sentiment.
  • Crisis Communication Planning: Being prepared for potential public relations crises is crucial. We work with you to develop a crisis communication plan to minimize damage and effectively address any negative situations.
  • Measure and Analyze Results: We are dedicated to delivering measurable results. We track key metrics like brand mentions, sentiment analysis, and social media engagement to gauge the effectiveness of our ORM efforts. These insights help us refine our strategies and ensure optimal results for your business.
