Yikes! You go to Google or Yelp and find that someone’s written a mean, nasty review about your business. What should you do?

Write a positive review about a local business. Then write another one. Get the Law of Reciprocity working in your favor. If you send out good vibes and love into the universe, it will come back to you. Not necessarily from the person that you wrote the positive reviews for, but perhaps from one of their friends who reads your review.

The guys at GetListed.org have started a wave, and they’re hoping you get on board.

My friend Don Campbell wrote about it on his excellent blog, Expand 2 Web:

Want to help out your favorite local business in a tough economy?

Here’s your chance: the smart folks at GetListed.org have come up with a very cool idea- it’s called Review Wednesday.

The idea is to help spread the word about your favorite small businesses and help them get more customers. Online reviews are very helpful to small business owners – they help them rank better and get discovered by prospective customers.

The Golden Rule Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.
