If you’re trying to build your company’s online reputation, it can be tempting to take shortcuts and try to find a quick fix.

If you can’t identify it, you can’t fix it! 💡 That’s where the Voice of the Customer (VoC) comes in. Today, far too many brands do VoC simply because that’s what they think they’re supposed to do; that’s what all their competitors do.
