It used to be, when consumers became frustrated with a business or service, their limited options included complaining to management or contacting the local Better Business Bureau.
Today's business professionals may have good reason to wax nostalgic for those low-tech solutions to customer complaints as the digital age has provided each of us with the power to fire off a potentially business-killing social media comment or online review just as fast as we can tap or type.
In the same vein, once businesspeople (including agents and advisors) make peace with the power of online reviews, they can turn them into a powerful tool or lead generation and growth.
