But the truth is that having them is not enough: it is necessary to do everything we can to ensure that they reflect the values that define us and transmit them correctly to our audience.

What is online reputation?
Having a good online reputation is essential in any market, as the achievement of our objectives depends to a large extent on this reputation.
With it, we manage to generate trust in our customers and become a reference, thus increasing the number of members of the center.

One of the first things we must be clear about is the difference between online reputation and brand image.
It is true that they are closely linked, but they are not the same thing.
Reputation cannot be created directly, since it depends on what users think of you.
Brand image, on the other hand, is built by you, and from it you build your prestige on the web.

Depending on how we build and maintain our brand image on the Internet, our digital reputation will improve or not.
How to manage a good online reputation
It is clear that we cannot generate the reputation by ourselves, but we can transmit a good brand image that will condition it in our favor.
Of course, online reputation is closely related to offline reputation, so we can highlight several important aspects when it comes to influencing it in this sense:
Of course, online reputation is closely related to offline reputation, so we can highlight several important aspects when it comes to influencing it in this sense:
-
The professionalism and efficiency of the work carried out in the company.
For example, if we indicate to the customer that it will take 2 days to deliver an order, we must comply with it.
It will generate a positive impact. -
The behavior of managers and employees.
The reactions that our employees and even our managers may have directly affect the brand image. -
The behavior of customers and users.
The number of customers and the assiduity with which they come to the sports center -even the queues that can be seen at opening time-, reflect the interest that the company generates.
And entering fully into the online arena, we will pay attention to the following basic pillars:
Web site
It is our base camp:
- It must be in accordance with the image of our brand, with the same typography and colors.
- The design has to be pleasing to users, and should reflect our character.
- We have to take care of the usability of the web, so that users do not waste time making unnecessary clicks and find what they are looking for in the most intuitive way possible.
Quality content
Everything we publish has to be relevant.
It is important that we have specialized professionals to take care of it, because it is the small details that make the difference.

Profiles in social networks
This is a point that many brands neglect.
They think that having the profile created is enough, and in reality it is counterproductive if it is not worked in the right way: it generates very bad feelings to users to enter a company profile and see that it is abandoned.

For this reason we should never open an account on a social network if we are not willing to make frequent content updates or interact with users.
This interaction must promote the services offered by our brand while meeting the needs of our users, in a complex balance that requires specific interaction, active listening and communication skills.
