Did you hear what they’re saying about you?
Whether you’re aware of it or not, people are talking about your organization. And according to research by Heinz Marketing, “90% of people say reading online reviews has influenced their decisions.”
And yes my fellow church leaders, this applies to us too. We may not think of someone’s decision to visit a church as a “buying decision” but it is a decision that is influenced by reading online reviews.
Do you know what you would do if you got a review like this?
Would you even know if someone posted a review like this?
Did you know the number of reviews and average rating also affect search rankings?
