Online Review Management for Skincare

Renew Skincare is a small organic skincare label launched by Ashley Nunes out of her home kitchen. Despite no marketing budget beyond her personal Instagram account, Ashley’s carefully crafted formulas targeting skin issues like acne, wrinkles and pigmentation quickly caught on. “Seeing the first few glowing reviews from customers genuinely moved me,” recalls Ashley. But as demand grew, how would Renew maintain exceptional quality and service?

“I knew customer feedback should drive all major decisions to prevent expansion headaches down the line,” says Ashley wisely. She dedicated two hours every morning to monitoring and thoughtfully responding to every customer review on social media, forums and their recently launched website. This helped identify recurring customer pain points to address. For example, packaging changes were made after reviews called out inconveniences from leaky, faulty dispenser pumps.

Six months since starting review management rigorously, Renew continues to garner loyalty through highly personalized service even as order volumes grow. Analytics revealed customers frequently sharing images demonstrating their bespoke skincare “Renew-al”. So Ashley is now developing a structured program around encouraging and incentivizing customer content contributions along with video testimonials.

Paying attention to reviews provides valuable insights guaranteeing we don’t lose sight of what matters most – creating skincare that consumers not only buy once but also actively promote to the community.
