Comment writing is something of a new art form, and as many people who get comments will tell you, some are great and some are horrible. In fact, I’ve embedded a hilarious video at the bottom of this article of some girls from YouTube doing a rap song about the awful comments they get on their videos. It’s called “Yo Comments are Whack,” and it’s worth the time. It’s good to know your blog is much better than these and will never end up being made fun of.

Another pool of verified buyers is a loyalty program. If you can tie your customer’s in-store purchases to their loyalty card and an email address then you have a great order history. An integrated channel approach to reviews is a great strategy for anybody who can pull the data together.

Not as good for smaller retailers but if you collect shipping emails for people in a UPS database you could do a similar thing. Quantum View software should allow you to dump the data if you tied boxes to actual product ids.
