I fix online reviews for good local businesses.
Many great local businesses lose work because their online reviews do not match the real experience. I step in, clean things up, and put a simple process in place so that online reputation finally reflects reality.
I work with service businesses where the right review can mean one high ticket job, an urgent call out, or a client who stays for years.
- You have fewer reviews than you should.
- One or two bad reviews sit at the top of your profile.
- You do not have a repeatable way to ask happy clients for reviews.
Small, real wins first.
Many companies talk about reputation in big abstract terms, but what actually matters are small, visible wins:
- A better Google rating.
- More recent reviews.
- Prospects seeing the right proof at the right time.
The work is scoped tightly at first to show a quick change in 2 to 3 weeks.
Built around how you already work.
Instead of forcing you into a new tool, I work with what you already use.
Your CRM
Your existing CRM or booking tool.
Your profiles
Your current website and Google Business profile, plus any other key directories.
Your channels
The channels you already use, such as email, SMS and intake forms.
Reviews without gimmicks.
The philosophy is simple:
- No fake reviews.
- No tricks that risk platform penalties.
- Focus on real clients, clear expectations, and timing
The goal is a reputation that would still make sense if a prospect actually talked to the last ten clients.

FAQs
I focus on monthly retainers to ensure lasting results. One off cleanups can help initially, but reputation management works best as an ongoing process. However, I am open to discussing specific situations.
Most clients see visible improvements within 2 to 3 weeks. This includes responded reviews, an improved Google rating trajectory, and the first new reviews from the process we implement.
Both. I can draft responses for you to approve, or I can advise on tone and structure while you write. It depends on what fits your workflow best.
