Sacramento Yelp Marketing

Yelp is affecting your business, Do you know how?

Do you know how often your prospects are seeing negative or positive reviews of your business? Yelp is a well-optimized platform and is frequently the second result, just below your website, when people Google your business. Even if your prospects don't fit the Yelp demographic (urban, aged 24-35) if you've got bad reviews, most of your prospects will see them on Google. According to a recent study by 2 Berkeley economists, a half star improvement in your Yelp rating can bring you 30-49% increase in business. http://techcrunch.com/2012/09/02/berkeley-study-half-star-change-in-yelp-rating-can-make-or-break-a-restaurant/
