Quick answer
You cannot directly delete a negative Google review unless it violates Google's policies. Instead, focus on managing your reputation by responding professionally and encouraging more positive reviews.
While Google does not allow businesses to delete negative reviews that comply with their guidelines, you can flag reviews that violate policies (e.g., spam, fake, or offensive content) for potential removal. The best defense is a strong offense: proactively collect genuine positive feedback using a tool like CAN-TAP Verified, which lets customers leave a Google review with a simple NFC tap, boosting your rating for just $129 one-time with no subscription.
