Harness the Power of Reviews

 

Right now, couples are facing a crisis of trust! The wedding marketplace is saturated with ads, multiple social media platforms, and unsolicited advice from family/friends, leaving engaged Couples overwhelmed and often indecisive. Vendors, now more than ever, need to find ways to build credibility with potential customers. This is where reputation marketing comes in. 

Reputation marketing leverages social proof and customer opinion to help form a positive impression of your brand. Opinions and experiences from real couples in the form of reviews can present the most compelling argument to engaged couples searching for vendors. In fact, our surveys indicate that nearly 85% of wedding customers read reviews before booking their vendors.

New reviews = fresh content = more traffic = more visibility = more new business. It’s a tried and tested formula that can’t be underestimated in any industry and ABIA recognises the need to invest in new ways to capture and best display reviews.

 

Introducing a NEW way to collect ABIA Ratings & Reviews!

 

Vendors will now have access to a personalised link via their ABIA Portal to collect ratings and reviews directly from past wedding clients. ABIA's review link can be sent via email, SMS, DM, or most other platforms where communication exists between vendor and couple. Importantly, ABIA has built into its software a number of additional classifiers that will automatically audit and verify reviews to ensure that only legitimate reviews are submitted. Fake reviews will not be tolerated in line with ABIA's review policy. ABIA views this initiative as being a popular option for Vendors who like to maintain direct communication with their couples.

 

Vendors are still able to collect reviews through their ABIA Business Portal by registering either Past or Future couples, there are no changes to this process.

 

To use your personalised link, simply login to your ABIA Business Portal > Visit Dashboard > Copy your personalised link and send directly to your past wedding clients;
