Reputation Management - New Client Setup

This guide will walk you through all the steps for setting up all the components of our reputation management product from the time of sale to the completion of setup and support. If you need further clarification on any of the steps, please reach out to Grant Gooch.

 

***FOR WEBSITE REVIEW TOOL ONLY CUSTOMERS***

  • Skip all intake and outreach, dealer access, review settings, and integration steps, labeled below.

New Sale Process

At the time a new sale comes through Salesforce and Reputation Management products are added to the account, a setup Fulfillment Request will be generated for each RM product, which should appear in the RM Setup section of the DS DigMS Setups & Takedowns dashboard that has been made for Juniper in Salesforce.

Outreach - Josh (ONLY necessary for Managed Review Response and/or Automated Review Invitation setups)

Once the new client card is created on the reputation management board, we are ready to kick off the outreach portion of the setup. It will start with moving the newly created client card to the “Outreach” list, where it will be queued up for Josh to start contact with the dealer. He will complete the outreach and intake steps for gathering all initial information, as well as gaining access to both Google and Facebook/Meta; “Owner” level access for Google and “Admin“ level access for Facebook.

Google Accounts Used For Access Requests:

  • All Leadventure - repman@leadventure.com

    • You will need to select the correct business group either ARI or DS and provide the business group ID. It's a string of 5-6 numbers that the dealer will need to add as a user.

Facebook:

  • Once Admin Access has been granted you will need to add the Merchant-Centric user to the page by searching for the page and using the “Add People” button. From there you can search for the Merchant-Centric user and click all permissions possible and click “add”.

Once we have the information needed for setup and access to both platforms with the correct level of credentials, the outreach team will move the card back to the “Outreach Complete” list on the reputation management board. Now, with that out of the way, we’re ready to complete the rest of the setup.

Loose Intake Script:

  • Introduction

    • I am calling to discuss your recent reputation management purchase with [insert brand]. We have a few questions before we can start; do you have a moment?

  • Questions - (Have the client card open so you can enter the information as you go)

    • Are you going to be my contact for reputation management at the dealership?

    • (If multi-location and they didn’t purchase for ALL locations) - Which locations are we going to be managing, and who is the point of contact for EACH of those locations? - We need names, emails, and phone numbers for each location & contact.

    • To make the best use of our Reputation Management tool,  we will need DMS Transactional Access if applicable(see no DMS bullet point).

      • What type of DMS do they use, and what is their DMS ID?  (Need this information added to the client sheet)

      • If no DMS, EVERY MONTH, we need an updated list of your most recent customer emails and names. This allows us to ask for reviews from your recent customers while their experience is fresh in their mind.

    • Do we have your permission to display a feed of your most recent reviews on your website? It will only post 4- and 5-star reviews.

    • Do you want to be notified of ALL new reviews or only the negative ones?

    • With your package, you also get Managed Review Response services. This means we will professionally respond to all your reviews.

      • For negative reviews, we have an escalation process. We email your dealership with how we intend to reply in case you would like to provide feedback.

        • Dealers will also have access to the Reputation Management Dashboard – access and training to the platform will be provided by the reach-out (Juniper) team.

    • Is there anyone else at the dealership who would like to be notified of reviews or access the Reputation Management platform? (Get the name and email address)

    • Just so we’re clear, you go by (dealership name), correct? We just want to make sure we’re putting the correct information into our directory management tool.

  • Next Steps

    • Outline your next calls and the level of access you will need to the tools.

    • Explain that there will be multiple accounts added to their GBP for our tools to function properly.

    • Gather any questions they have for next time.

    • Set up the follow-up call, email, etc…

  • Record the call in the Trello card and update the intake status

Grant User Access For Facebook - Josh

  • Locate the page

  • Add the merchant-centric user as an admin on the page

  • Mark the connection as complete on the MC spreadsheet

 

LV Tool Setup - Juniper:

We are going to set up the review monitoring, review feed, and review generation parts of the reputation management product. Our Reputation Management product helps dealers view and manage their Google & Facebook reviews. Most importantly, we help them grow the number of new reviews through automated Review Invitations via email and text using DMS integration.

This document covers the process Fulfillment team members will go through to set up new clients.
