The Power of Reviews for Consumer Decision-Making

Consumer trust hinges on online reviews. According to recent insights from Brightlocal’s survey, 74% of people check at least two review platforms before deciding where to spend their money. Even more telling—71% won’t consider businesses with a rating under three stars. But it’s not just the score that matters. A staggering 88% of consumers trust companies that actively respond to both positive and negative feedback. These numbers underline one clear truth: reviews drive consumer decisions. Whether you’re a local business or a SaaS platform supporting clients, an effective review strategy is non-negotiable.
