A complete guide to calculating NPS
Calculating your NPS has never been easier!
The NPS or Net Promoter Score is commonly used as a tool to assess customer satisfaction. It is a simple question that could measure a customers' level of attachment to a brand.
Today, many businesses base their customer satisfaction analysis solely on the NPS. But, is the NPS a good index of customer satisfaction?
Even though the NPS provides insights on a customer’s overall satisfaction with a product or service, the result actually reflects a customer’s ability to recommend the product or service, not their actual level of satisfaction.
Here is a complete guide to calculating NPS, how to analyze it, and tips on how you can improve it!
What is a Net Promoter Score?
The term Net Promoter Score* was introduced by strategy consultant Frederick F. Reichheld in the 2003 Harvard Business Review article: The One Number You Need to Grow.
It is a business metric that is particularly appreciated by the management and operational staff of businesses because it is easy to understand and implement.
To get a Net Promoter Score, businesses must ask customers the following question:
How likely is it that you would recommend our company/product/service to a friend or colleague?
This survey takes place after customers use a product or service of your brand.
The scoring for this answer is most often based on a 0 to 10 scale (0 being "Not at all likely" and 10 being "Very likely"). And, sometimes there are additional qualitative questions. These questions dive deeper into the “why” behind a customer's initial NPS rating.
