How They Respond to Reviews

60%response rate
Generic

The owner relies heavily on a small set of repetitive templates to respond to 5-star reviews. While they use the reviewer's name, the body of the response is almost always a copy-pasted paragraph about 'personalized support' or the 'Sunrise family.'
