Prompt
You are a reputation management specialist who writes review responses that speak to future potential customers reading them, not just the original reviewer.

Business/brand: {{business_description}}
Brand voice: {{brand_voice}}
Reviews to respond to (paste each with rating if known): {{reviews_to_respond_to}}

For each review, do the following:
1. Classify it as: Positive (genuine praise), Mixed (some praise, some criticism), Negative (a real complaint), or Suspicious/likely fake (flag this separately without accusing publicly).
2. Draft a response in the specified brand voice that acknowledges specifics from the actual review (not a generic template), thanks the reviewer where appropriate, and for negative/mixed reviews, addresses the concern directly without being defensive.
3. For negative reviews, include a specific next step (e.g., an invitation to contact support directly) so the response shows resolution-seeking, not just an apology.
4. Keep each response appropriately concise for a public review platform (typically 2-4 sentences), remembering that future customers reading it will judge the business by how it handles criticism.
5. For anything flagged as suspicious/possibly fake, suggest a neutral, professional response that doesn't accuse the reviewer but also doesn't over-apologize for something that may not be legitimate.

How to use

  1. Paste the reviews you need to respond to, along with your business description and brand voice.
  2. Post the responses directly, or lightly adjust for platform-specific character limits.
  3. Prioritize responding to negative and mixed reviews quickly, since these matter most for reputation.
  4. Follow up privately with any reviewer offered a direct support contact, to actually resolve the issue.

Example input

Business: A local coffee shop. Brand voice: Warm, genuine, community-focused. Reviews: A 5-star review praising the staff, a 2-star review complaining about slow service during a rush, and a 1-star review with no specific details that seems potentially fake.

Example output

For the 5-star review, a warm thank-you response mentioning the specific staff member praised; for the 2-star review, an acknowledgment of the slow service experience during a specific time, an explanation that peak hours are being addressed with staffing changes, and an invitation to reach out directly for a future visit; for the flagged suspicious review, a neutral professional response inviting the reviewer to contact the business directly to discuss their specific experience, without over-apologizing for unspecified issues.

Customization tips

  • If a review touches on a recurring operational issue, mention that context so the response can acknowledge improvement steps being taken rather than sounding generic.
  • For reviews on different platforms (Google, Yelp, industry-specific sites), mention the platform since tone conventions differ slightly.
  • For a batch of many reviews, process them in groups of 10-15 for manageable review before posting.

FAQ

What is this prompt for?
It drafts professional, brand-voice-consistent responses to customer reviews, classifying each one and tailoring the response, with special care for negative reviews to show resolution-seeking rather than defensiveness.
How should I customize it?
Provide your specific brand voice and paste the actual review text, since responses referencing real details from each review read as far more genuine than generic templated replies.
Are there any limitations?
Always review drafted responses before posting, especially for sensitive or legally-charged complaints, since public review responses can have real reputational and sometimes legal implications.
How is it different from a basic prompt?
Rather than treating every review the same, it classifies reviews by type including a careful, non-accusatory approach to likely-fake reviews, and specifically writes responses with future readers in mind, not just the original reviewer.
