Overview

## What this prompt does

Every review is public and permanent. A thoughtful reply reassures the next customer reading it far more than the review itself.

This prompt responds to the actual points raised — no copy-paste “we’re sorry to hear that” — and knows the difference between a five-star and a one-star reply.

#### Best for

Local businesses and service providers managing Google, Facebook or industry reviews.

DELIVER a public reply that sounds like a real person, not a template: thank them by name if given, respond to the specific points raised, take ownership where fair (without admitting legal liability), and invite a next step. For a negative review, stay calm and move detail offline. Then add one optional short private follow-up message.
```

Tip: for a bad review, reply calmly in public and take the details to a private channel.

### Copy-paste apologies

Identical replies under every review look robotic and hurt trust.
