How to Handle Getting Negative Reviews

False reviews are one thing, but sometimes the negative reviews are actually valid and you might be tempted to get rid of them. Before you look at reporting them, the best way to handle valid negative reviews is to turn them around, and here are a few tips to do it:

Do not be too hard on yourself	Take the negative review as a learning opportunity to improve your service, and let the customers know that you’ve made a note of this.
Identify common themes and patterns	Assess the negative reviews, find out what issues your clients have with your products and do something to deal with the complaints.
Respond quickly to the negative reviews	Assure the customers that their reviews have been received, and thank them for their feedback.
Pick your battles	Do not at any point engage with online trolls who are only looking to tarnish your business. Going back and forth with them will not benefit you in any way.

If you receive negative reviews that are actually unfair and false then it’s time to report them.

What to Do If Etsy Does Not Delete a Review

Etsy will not delete a review from your listing if it does not violate Etsy policies. However, it does not mean that you cannot do anything about it if the review doesn't please you. How to get around this problem? Here are a few ways:

Contact the buyer and ask why they left you a negative review.
Request that the buyer removes the review.
Ask your customers to flag inappropriate reviews and then try to get them removed. (this is a slow process)
Direct customers to your policies, terms, and conditions, or shop policies, so that they have an idea of what a positive review looks like for you and make sure that it is in accordance with these rules.
Contact Etsy directly. The Etsy platform has a feature called the 'Report This Shop' that allows other users to report a bad experience with a seller. In this case, it is worth trying to contact the platform directly and explain your situation.
Contact your local consumer protection agency. If you are from the US or Canada, you can file a dispute with your local consumer protection agency's mediation/arbitration program, or even sue for defamation of character through a small claims court.

To avoid all these hassles, let DoNotPay help you remove negative reviews on Etsy written by customers.
