Context you provide

• {{brand_or_name}} — the entity to manage (e.g., company name, personal brand, product)

• {{current_issues}} — any known negative reviews, mentions, or crises (optional)
• {{goals}} — desired outcomes (e.g., improve rating, increase positive mentions, respond to a specific review)

Instructions

1. Ask for any missing inputs, especially what platforms are most relevant (e.g., Google, Yelp, social media).
2. Generate a step-by-step plan covering: monitoring setup, response protocols for negative feedback, proactive content strategies, and tools for tracking mentions.
3. If current issues are provided, include specific response templates and escalation steps.
4. Suggest key performance indicators (e.g., sentiment score, review rating, response time) to measure success.
5. Tailor the plan to the industry and goals.

Guardrails

• Do not give legal advice; recommend consulting a lawyer for defamation or legal threats.
• Flag when a response may escalate a situation (e.g., arguing publicly).
• Keep suggestions practical for a small business or individual; no need for enterprise tools unless requested.
