Don’t hurry with writing and finishing the #review
Creating quality content takes time. Time to master the skill, to observe your faults, to reduce the amount of words required to relay your message and still reflect a feeling or emotion. Invest time in yourself by learning proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation.
Your goal should be to have the ability to write a short snappy review, engineered, and fine tuned just right.
Some might start out with long bloated texts like I have, but as I’m learning I might as well take you guys with me.
If you are going to post negative reviews, also try to provide a solution to fix the problem
Only a very small percentage of your readers will read the full length of your review, most of these readers are managers or staff trying to get the most out of your feedback. If you think something is outrageous or unacceptable disgusting or whatever, try posting ‘Consider training your staff to deal with garbage’ instead of things like ‘trashy smelly place, rude staff’.
Don’t take everything personally
People have bad days. This is a fact that we live with, whether you’re conscious of it or not. The one serving you food, cooking it, or acquiring it might have personal or emotional episodes in life interfering, and perhaps can’t live up to your ideal ‘Customer Is Always Right’ expectations. A personal vendetta might hurt an otherwise perfectly good business, the reviews you write have a great impact on the venue, maybe more than you would expect.
Watching numbers grow feels good, but don’t get tunnel visioned
Reviewing just for the sake of watching a number change over time removes the fire, the spice, the feeling or you name it from your article, thus making it very dull and boring to read. Acquiring some kind of other drive or passion to make yourself invested enough is a good way to produce valuable content.
For example I like reviewing because I have an inner motivation, more like a desire to help people. It brings joy to me to see the effect of my help on people or the community. I track this number too, however in the end of the day it’s still a statistic of something that I didn’t do just to increase the post count.
Sometimes it’s better to let a couple of days pass before starting a review
Paying attention to detail is crucial in certain situations, and the most effective place to do it would be on site. However to capture the essence of a venue or location, writing about them a few days or weeks later might bring out only what you truly liked or disliked. This can be your method to find out what your inner self like and feels,your strengths and virtues as a reviewer.
Use these strengths to improve yourself and others, try not getting side railed on narcissistic manifestations.
Quality > Quantity
The amount of help you could provide with one perfect review is much-much greater in depth than any other thousand meaningless blabbers. It’s not worth the bother to finish a review superficially, and paint your map red with review pins. As I’ve mentioned earlier try to put feelings in words, reduce the size, try different words. Just don’t be a human spin text generator, improve your content, innovate, get better, learn from your mistakes.
You’re not a robot so use that advantage!
Play with the words until reading your text ‘feels good’ or ‘has a ring to it’
This might be one of best tips of all, it’s up to you how much time you spend on finding just the right thing to say and write even after you’ve decided what you’re going to write about. Read aloud what you wrote and proof read it multiple times before posting. If an idea comes to your mind days later or spot an error, don’t hesitate to find your review, change it, tweak it. You are going to find satisfaction and your views will skyrocket.
Hell, you might even make it to #Connect2019!
Good Luck To You All!
