Introducing Feedback.com
Free online service simplifies the feedback process while
helping
businesses and brand managers protect their social reputation
NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today,
Feedback.com Inc. announced a new online platform that transforms
the way businesses engage with their customers with a simple,
efficient
and authentic feedback service. User feedback on the web is a
confusing
and deeply fragmented array of review sites, blogs and streams
that are
susceptible to infiltration by spam and competitive attacks.
Existing
systems are primarily a one-way experience where users? comments
are
unlikely to reach the right person, generate any action or deliver
a
positive result because businesses do not have a meaningful way of
getting informed or responding when customers weigh in. In this
environment, businesses and people can unknowingly incur
substantial
damage to their brands and reputations. Feedback.com not only
gives
businesses of all sizes a fighting chance to protect their
reputation
amidst the chaos of social media opinion that can quickly escalate
and
get out of hand, but also provides an opportunity for high quality
customer engagement.
?We think that can be misleading and often irrelevant. At
Feedback.com, it?s all about the conversation between the giver
and
receiver.?
?People have opinions and reactions to the brands, products and
services
they use all the time, so we?ve developed a free service that not
only
simplifies the collection of authentic customer feedback, but
gives
businesses a clear picture of what to do about it,? said Michael
Harris,
CEO of Feedback.com. ?Feedback.com bridges that gap and helps
businesses
and consumers get the greatest value from their exchange.?
Visitors to Feedback.com and users of the Feedback iPhone
application
can provide their comments to a business, product or person via a
simple
feedback entry form. Additionally, Feedback.com can aggregate
feedback
messages posted to social media sites and networks including
Facebook
and Twitter so people can manage their feedback all in one place.
Visitors may also read the feedback that has been given by other
users.
?But, we don?t stack-rank or rate one business over another,?
added
Harris. ?We think that can be misleading and often irrelevant. At
Feedback.com, it?s all about the conversation between the giver
and
receiver.?
"The reason I like Feedback.com so much is that it provides a free
and
easy way for people with genuine concerns ? rather than snarky
comments
? to offer honest, constructive feedback about their experiences,?
said
Lara Fordis, founder of SuggestionGuru.com, which specializes in
getting
feedback for corporate clients. ?Unlike Yelp or other review
sites,
Feedback.com solicits comments that help businesses make positive
changes since the feedback is focused on action and results. For
people
and companies who care about authentic communication, Feedback.com
is a
must-try tool."
Feedback.com business pages are highly search engine optimized and
provide a centralized and persistent view of customer sentiment
from
actual users, giving businesses the ability to take appropriate
action.
Businesses or individuals that claim their feedback page get a
search-friendly URL (?yourname.feedback.com? or
?feedback.com/yourname?)
and access to additional methods of responding to feedback as well
as
the ability to customize their page, including the option to share
or
solicit feedback about specific things and offer other promotions,
coupons and incentives to feedback givers.
Representatives from Feedback .com will be participating in the
TechCrunch Disrupt conference Startup Alley in New York City on
May
24-26.
