## Resource

Bad reviews happen—even to the best professionals. What matters most is how you respond. In this episode, Dan shares practical lessons on how to stay professional, take responsibility, and write responses that protect your reputation. You’ll learn why perception is reality, the importance of balancing five-star reviews with a few less-than-perfect ones, and a powerful framework to guide clients in leaving testimonials that actually win business.
