How long does it take to build a strong online reputation?

A business with fewer than fifteen reviews looks unproven to most customers. Getting to thirty is where trust starts to feel real. Getting to a hundred is where you become the obvious choice in your category.

At a pace of five reviews per month, you reach thirty in six months. At ten per month, you get there in three. Neither pace requires a campaign. Both require a consistent ask.

The businesses that never build a strong profile are not the ones with unhappy customers. They are the ones who stopped asking after the first few.

Start now, set a number you can hit every month, and measure against it. The reputation compounds quietly in the background while you run your business.
