What to do about it

Pull up your Google listing and count how many of your last 10 reviews have a reply from you. The reply figures above were counted exactly that way. Among the hair salons and nail salons named here, 10 of 10 is a number real businesses in this search reach; among the barbershops we could measure, the highest was 5 of 10.

If you are below that, answer the next review that comes in, then the one after it, and keep the reply short and specific to what the customer said. You do not write the review, but you do write the reply.
