How to reply to reviews professionally

Your reply is read by every future customer, not only by the reviewer.

Reviews are among the first things customers check before contacting a business, and replying to them shows that you care.

Positive reviews

Thank the customer, by name if you can, and mention something specific from their visit. A short, sincere reply beats a generic thank-you repeated everywhere.

Negative reviews

  • Reply calmly and don’t argue the details in public.
  • Apologise for the bad experience and say what you will do to improve.
  • Invite the customer to contact you directly by chat or phone to resolve it.
  • Never publish the customer’s personal details or private information in a reply.

If a review breaks the rules

If a review is abusive, false or unrelated to your business, use the Report button instead of replying, and the Dalel team will review it.
