What to do about it

If you run a grooming salon, a boarding business or a vet practice, the businesses named in this section give you concrete marks to measure yourself against. Lane Veterinary, The Velvet Touch Pet Salon, Hinsdale Animal Hospital, Dogtopia of Oakbrook Terrace and Dogtopia of Downers Grove each answered 10 of their last 10 reviews. Open your own Google listing, count how many of your most recent 10 reviews carry a reply from you, and put that number beside theirs and beside the 65 percent benchmark measured here.

If your count is below that, start with the newest review and work back. Keep each reply short and specific to what the customer wrote: the pet's name if they gave it, the service they mentioned, a plain thank-you. A reply is the one part of a review you write, so it is the part you control. Then treat each new review as something to answer, rather than letting another ten build up unanswered.
