Neutralizing negativity is the most sensitive aspect of managing a person's reputation, requiring a very careful approach. A misstep can lead to public exposure and worsen the situation. The Avagard Global team specializes in the most challenging cases—we address black PR and information attacks to protect entrepreneurs' business reputations, remove negativity and compromising material for compliance, and as part of a strategy for promoting top executives. In all our projects, we have achieved complete neutralization of negativity. This success is based on the effective use of a combination of four tools:
REMOVAL THROUGH NEGOTIATIONS
DEINDEXING
("right to be forgotten")
REMOVAL THROUGH COURT
DISPLACEMENT (SERM)
We communicate directly with site administrators to remove information. A key success factor is preparing a personalized negotiating position and assessing the risks of privacy violations.
Avagard lawyers prepare appeals to Google, requesting the removal (deindexing) of links from search results. A key success factor is the careful preparation of these appeals by our legal team.
We submit a pre-trial claim to the site administration, and if refused, we escalate the process to court. A key success factor is assessing the timeline, budget, and likelihood of success for the legal process.
We push negativity to the later pages of search results. The key success factor is thoroughly cleaning the first two pages, as fewer than 0.4% of users reach the third page.
