A few days in the past, Google despatched out an electronic mail to homeowners of Google Enterprise Profile listings. The e-mail was a reminder in regards to the Google Enterprise Profile insurance policies, and it highlighted insurance policies round evaluations.
I acquired the e-mail myself and the topic line learn, “Necessary reminder about Enterprise Profile insurance policies.”
The e-mail goes on to say that it’s best to “Be sure that every little thing you publish precisely represents your small business and what it provides.”
The e-mail then lists these three insurance policies, particularly:
- Settle for all evaluations, optimistic and unfavorable. Do not selectively solicit optimistic evaluations or strain clients to go away a selected overview.
- Do not pay for evaluations or supply incentives like reductions or freebies for evaluations.
- Do not solicit optimistic evaluations from staff or anybody affiliated along with your firm, and by no means put up unfavorable content material meant to hurt the status of your rivals.
Here’s a screenshot of the complete electronic mail:
My guess, most enterprise homeowners by no means learn the insurance policies and do not know what’s and what’s not allowed. So that is Google ensuring to electronic mail them out, so homeowners might be conscious.
