Reputation.com recently hosted a live webinar for the automotive industry, during which we focused on the importance of maintaining a healthy online presence, and why online reputation management (ORM) is becoming essential for the sector.

The Customer Journey

The customer journey has changed. A simple Google search brings back what is now your ‘showroom’, and what information shows up after each search can influence that person’s next decision.

Your reputation is everywhere consumers look. Whether it’s a search on desktop, mobile, maps, by voice, social media or something else, businesses need to ensure they’re on top of managing those sources at all times. This is even more important for companies who operate through multiple locations — that’s why in the automotive sector, ORM is gaining traction.

ORM isn’t just about reviews anymore. It encompasses and source of information where your business shows up online — from business listings to social media, directories, review requesting and more.
