5 Ways to escape Negative Feedback and Review

Negative feedback and reviews can let down your credibility and trustworthiness as a seller. It will further bring down your future sales. You can escape negative feedback and reviews by following a few simple yet effective ways.

Quality first

Always make sure you are selling good quality products on Amazon. For categories like electronic items that require guarantee and warranty details, it is important to list them. If your product is expected to work for 6 months, it sets expectations in the mind of customers. What is it stops working in the first week of purchase? This leaves the customers discontented with the purchase and they may tend to leave a negative review. So always make sure to deliver good quality products on Amazon.

Describe the product accurately

When customers are going through your product page, there is an expectation developed in their minds. When there is a setback in the expectations, they may tend to leave a negative review.

So, always display the product exactly as it is. It includes the product color, appearance, size, material, and functionalities. And also, you can add images of the product from different angles, so that a customer can have a clear idea of the product. Videos with perfect resolution can also serve the same purpose.

Deliver the product on time

If you are a non-FBA seller, and if you have your own logistics team to handle packaging and deliveries, make sure to deliver the products to customers on time. And also, notify them about their order: your item is packed; your item will be delivered in 2 days. This will keep them informed about their order status

Pay attention to packaging

If you are handling logistics on your own, pay more focus towards the materials used for packaging and how you pack the product. Poor packaging can cause damages to the product. When customers receive damaged products, they may leave a negative feedback. To escape from negative feedback, plan for effective packaging of products.
