The Net Promoter Score: Measure your Customer Loyalty

How likely are your users to recommend your product?

 
 
 

WHAT IS THE NET PROMOTER SCORE? 

Fred Reicheld, Bain & Company and Satmetrix created the Net Promoter Score (NPS) all the way back in 2003. NPS is a tried and tested customer satisfaction benchmark that measures how likely your customers are to recommend your business to a friend.

Don’t confuse NPS with other benchmarks (like CSAT or CES)! NPS differs as it measures a customer's overall sentiment about a brand, versus their perception based on a one-time interaction or purchase.

 
 
 

WHAT QUESTION DOES AN NPS SURVEY ASK?

One simple question with a whole lot of great customer data behind it. 

"How likely are you to recommend (YOUR PRODUCT) to someone?"

The answer is a choice of numbers from 0 to 10, with 0 being “not likely” and 10 being “very likely”. Respondents are grouped as such - 

  • Promoters (score 9-10) - loyal enthusiasts.
  • Passives (score 7-8) - satisfied but unenthusiastic customers.
  • Detractors (score 0-6) - unhappy customers.

The NPS is fantastic for measuring your customer loyalty. You can engage your detractors and reward your loyalists to move up the scale over time.

 
 
 

WHAT YOUR NPS MEANS.

To calculate your Net Promoter Score, we’ll subtract the percentage of Detractors (customers who wouldn't recommend you) from the percentage of Promoters (customers who would recommend you). Your score will range from -100 to 100.

For example: if 10% of respondents are Detractors, 20% are Passives and 70% are Promoters, your NPS score would be 70-10 = 60.

It might seem obvious but the key to achieving a high NPS is having a larger number of promoters than detractors — a lot more. So collecting a statistically significant number of respondents is recommended. Hint: this is all automated in Quix!
