Choose channels for product review management on evidence of where the audience decides.
Designing Strategies to Manage Product Reviews and Ratings
Practical training in product review management, grounded in real cases and applied to your own operation.
Course Overview
Buyers now complete much of their decision on product review management before speaking to anyone. A message about this part of marketing and commercial practice that tries to reach everyone reaches nobody. The professional literature on the marketing and commercial practice discipline converges on a small set of controls that reliably work. Buying a tool rarely fixes product review management; the underlying capability has to be built internally first. It treats the practice within marketing and commercial practice as an operating discipline and equips participants to run it as one. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of this part of marketing and commercial practice rather than to abstract argument. They acquire practical criteria for judging when product review management is working and when it is only appearing to. Participants who influence the wider marketing and commercial practice agenda without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. The final session converts the week's work on this area of marketing and commercial practice into commitments with owners and dates.
