The challenge

Selling, Not Satisfying

A popular Vancouver bakery noticed a troubling pattern in the Google reviews of its matcha croissant. Sales were steady, so nothing looked wrong on the till — but customers kept describing the same product as bland, dry and not sweet enough.

Individually, each review was easy to dismiss. Together, they were a specification for what to fix.

Keyword analysis is available in the Core plan, or as an optional add-on to any Mooderator plan.
