How to reply to a Google review

To reply manually: open Google Business Profile, read the full review, write in the reviewer’s language, thank or apologize without promising a discount, and give a private contact path. To do this automatically in Saudi dialect, connect Repma; Badr publishes on new reviews. 7-day trial, no card.
