The problem
Restaurants live and die by their Google rating.
Industry data
94%
of diners say a bad online review convinced them to avoid a restaurant.
Diners check Google before they book. A 3.8 vs a 4.3 is the difference between a full house and empty tables. Most owners only hear about bad experiences after the damage is done.
- ✓One bad review can outweigh dozens of good ones.
- ✓Most unhappy customers never tell you. They post publicly first.
- ✓Review Gating gives them a faster, private channel to reach you.
