I wrote a review for a grocery store turned food service shovel basically said "this will be the first store that charges for air." Guess what? I use their bathroom every other day,for free. I think it's been months since I bought anything, and I help myself to utensils.
Every customer will eventually turn anything they can use for free, into a profitable feature for themselves.
There was a book called the 1 minute manager: it was followed by a book called the 59 second employee.
Never rely on an unscupulus third party, or if a third party becomes unscrupulous... Hunt them down.
I disliked Yelp, and held it in deep distain, then while working for a service company, Yelp called. "For a fee we can remove all negative reviews." This is the definition of ensh*tification. So... I told him I would get back to him. I called a few numbers at Yelp and was basically able to socially engineer a vast list of their revinue growth supervisors.
I made a list of every business in that city and the next, and related my experence, and how worthless a Yelp review was. Almost all the business responded to poor reviews with a 'i bet you are a Yelp employee drumming up money for fake reviews.' after a few weeks, I gathered up a lot of these, and sent a three page letter of them in a package with 50 of the Yelp peoples's names in it. I let that stew for a few days, and then called the idiot back. He said "we don't care." They don't. They do not care in the least. Google, OAth, and Facebook do not either. Hurt them in their advertising review and then they will listen.
