ORM — Online Reputation Management
Definition: The active monitoring and shaping of how your brand shows up across reviews, search, and social. Buyers Google you before they ever click your ad — ORM is the silent gatekeeper of pipeline.
Example
We invested in ORM after a bad-review cluster cratered demo bookings — within 60 days conversion was back to baseline.
When you'll hear it
ORM shows up most often in board meetings, quarterly business reviews, and strategy off-sites. When someone uses it, they're usually referring to online reputation management — and they expect the room to already know what that means.
