The web is open to everyone. So it’s no surprise that the internet is often the first place people take their grievances. Many times taking things online that have no business being there. Ex spouses, angry ex employees, and customers may sometimes take things online with just one thing in mind….

REVENGE.

It’s sad, but it’s something that is happening more and more these days. Angry people crossing the line, ONLINE, in an effort to hurt a person or a business, or both.

So what can you do when someone comes after you online? Well, first of all, we hope that you were proactive rather than reactive and that you already had a solid reputation management plan going. But if you didn’t, which is the case with most, you’re going to need to do some damage control. At this point, it’s really not important WHO is doing the damage. You can worry about that later. At the moment, someone is affecting your business with what they are saying online, and you need to act fast.

Remember to remain calm. It’s super important not to lash back at the person or persons that are doing the lashing. Thoughtless response to negative comments or websites can have more impact than you think in the long run. Not only could it make you and your company look worse, but you might just help those websites gain ground in the search engine result pages by updating them with your comments.

Nope, you need to stay cool and you need to make a plan. This is where we come in.

We’ll put together a plan that will clean up the negative and replace it with the positive. It may seem hopeless, but it’s not.

So give us a call today if you have been maliciously attacked by a disgruntled employee or your ex, we can and will help you.
