SERM-UP / Priorities and Action Plan
Online Reputation Strategy
A practical reputation strategy for a company, brand, CEO or expert, covering search results, reviews, media, content and monitoring.
01
When This Service Is Useful
A strategy is useful when the organisation already understands that a reputation risk exists but different teams are acting separately, priorities are unclear or the business is preparing for an important public or commercial event.
Companies with risks across search, reviews and media.
Businesses preparing for a deal, tender, investment round or public launch.
Executives beginning a more visible public role.
Marketing and PR teams that need a shared plan with SEO and legal advisers.
Agencies and professional advisers coordinating a sensitive client project.
02
What the Work Includes
Current-State Analysis
We review the available audit data, search results, reviews, media, profiles and communication assets.

We identify who is searching, what they may conclude and which business decisions the reputation environment can influence.
Risk and Opportunity Map
We prioritise harmful sources, information gaps, outdated materials and underused credible assets.
Source Strategy
We define which official, independent and expert sources should be updated, created or strengthened.

Realistic Expectations

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Do we need an audit first?
A strategy requires reliable source data. We can use an existing audit if it is current and sufficiently detailed, or conduct the required analysis as part of the strategy phase.
Can the strategy include both a company and its CEO?
Yes. When the two reputation environments influence each other, a shared strategy is usually more coherent.
Will the strategy guarantee removal of negative materials?
No. It identifies whether a removal or correction request is realistic and provides alternatives when the content remains online.
Can you work with our PR or legal team?
Yes. The strategy can assign separate roles to internal teams and external advisers.
How long does a reputation strategy remain current?
It should be reviewed when major search results, business circumstances, public activity or reputation risks change.
