NEEDHAM: RatePoint Inc., (www.RatePoint.com) a leading provider of customer reviews, testimonials and online reputation management services, has announced new small business social media tools for Facebook. The new features provide small businesses with a competitive advantage to collect and promote reviews to a bigger audience through a multi-solution platform.

Through this launch, small businesses have more resources to leverage RatePoint through social networks including Facebook and Twitter. Small businesses can add the customized RatePoint tab to their Facebook profiles so customers can browse and submit reviews directly via Facebook. A new email newsletter share bar allows small businesses to provide news updates, coupons and promotions with Facebook fans. Additionally, multiple Facebook fan pages now can be managed through a single RatePoint account.

"Referrals are essential to increasing sales and building a brand, but are often overlooked," said RatePoint Co-Founder and CEO Neal Creighton. "With more than 500 million users on social networks like Facebook and Twitter, RatePoint's latest integrations keep our small-business customers in the conversation and empower them to share the most relevant content available with a broad audience."

Small business owners can connect RatePoint reviews to their Facebook fan page by selecting the RatePoint application option in the Facebook directory. Business reviews collected via the RatePoint app will be instantly available for new and potential customers to see, and current customers can write a review directly from the Facebook tab.

These new enhancements empower small businesses to utilize RatePoint's one-click integration into Twitter, Facebook and RatePoint's custom URL shortener for social-networking updates.

"Small businesses need to plug into the social media dialogue to effectively engage with their audiences in a meaningful way," Creighton said. "For a small business, reputation is critical, and leveraging consumer-generated testimonials through RatePoint will provide reach, relevance and a whole new meaning to 'word-of-mouth.'"
