Centel Media Provides Coverage for the Holiday Season

NEW YORK - Sept. 16, 2013 - PRLog -- With the holiday season approaching, a business' appearance online becomes all the more important. Centel Media would like all businesses to consider the value of their online presence and take steps to ensure their holiday traffic and sales aren't jeopardized because of a weakened online reputation. Equipped with the appropriate exposure, any company can turn an average year into a great one, just by the success of their website's holiday sales.

Holidays lead to an increase in consumers, and thus, an increase in consumer reviews. Reviews can appear on social media sites, virtual marketplaces, and other mediums such as print, radio and television. Although positive reviews will always aid in recruiting more attention to a product or service, negative reviews may have a devastating impact on holiday profits. In a season where emotions often run high, these negative comments can be especially vicious and harmful. In addition, there are reviews that focus on elements that have nothing to do with a company or its product, but based solely on third-party mistakes, such as poor carrier service that resulted in lost, damaged or delayed shipping.

Such reviews take control away from the company. To take it back, measures must be done to both prevent and detract these negative comments. Luckily, Centel Media has services that can repair online reputations by monitoring, managing and suppressing negative reviews. Their negative review suppression service increases the positives associated with a business' overall reputation and product, and pushes the negatives further down, away from the public eye. Centel Media has an experienced team of professionals who apply these strategies to each social media outlet linked with the customer's brand.

Online reputation repair can often take up to three months to be fully implemented. This is why Centel Media implores companies to act immediately. If action is taken now, reputations can be drastically improved and ready for the upcoming start of the holiday season on Black Friday. Centel Media promises that all customers and their websites will be inspected thoroughly, to determine the credibility of reviews and the correct strategy in handling them.

Taking the time to strengthen an online reputation can ensure that a business not only records high profits during the holidays, but grows as a whole. Centel Media has a staff that strives to make the most out of any online interest and can help customers use the holidays as a platform for greater things.
