# 19 Reasons Why Online Reviews Matter More During The Pandemic

April 30, 2020

![Blog Image](https://blog.tracpoint.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog%20Image.png?width=586&name=Blog%20Image.png)

Social media and online reputation have quickly become a primary asset for every single brick and mortar retailers. Why? With the loss of essential foot traffic and the massive increase in time consumers are spending online, this is where your customers will form an opinion about your business. Now is the time to really pay attention to your online reviews.

Reviews that speak to how your business performs with the recent social distancing requirements, can either give potential customers the confidence they need to visit your store.... or go elsewhere.

 

Listed below are 19 actual reviews received during the pandemic that provide some insight to the experience the customer received at several random wireless retail locations. Many are great, and some are just plain horrible. How does your business compare?

 

### The Good
