“Google star ratings have gone up exponentially, but it’s also the number of reviews we have in our Google search. If there’s a negative one, we don’t even worry about it anymore. We just think, "Well, that just makes us look more authentic that we’re not screening reviews." The positive reviews far outweigh the negative.”
