The risk that the businesses damaged by negative e-WOM in the form of complaints and grievances in social media is great because more people can take part of the complaint via negative e-WOM on social media channels. As a result of these challenges in social media, companies should implement some strategies e.g. communicate and engage in social media in order to manage and reduce the risk of e-WOM. If all the complaints and grievances in the form of comments and opinions are handled, the risk of the adverse effects which may occur in the form of negative e-WOM will be minimized.
