Net Promoter Score is a tool that allows us to measure the loyalty of our clients through recommendations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to Social Networks, a praise or even a complaint can spread at a high speed and to be able to react and be up to the task as a company in this circumstance is necessary to become familiar with the use of indices that provide us with a clear and concise understanding of which it is the level of satisfaction of our clients with respect to our offer of products and services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Net Promoter Score? NPS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Net Promoter Score is an index that is obtained from the classification of clients in three large groups: Promoters, Passives and Detractors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The promoters are those clients who have enjoyed a satisfactory experience and are willing to recommend our brand. The Liabilities are those users who, although they show a high satisfaction index, are indifferent to a possible recommendation of our products and services to third parties, while the Detractors are part of a group whose level of satisfaction is very low and they are prone to to spread your negative experience among your contact network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through satisfaction surveys we obtain relevant information on how our brand aligns with the expectations of customers and users. To reach a greater precision in our calculation of the NPS, what we do is to establish a rating from 0 to 10 on the different aspects that determine the level of quality that our products and services have provided and that will allow us to catalog the responses of the following mode:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The clients that have valued between 9 and 10 are the Promoters and therefore we already know that they will actively recommend our brand.
The customers who have valued between 7 and 8 our questions are the Liabilities, and therefore we can conclude that they are neutral.
Those who have valued between 0 and 6 are the Detractors, customers who not only will not recommend our brand but will probably spread their low level of satisfaction among their contact network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How is the Net Promoter Score calculated?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To calculate the NPS we must subtract the Detractors from the percentage of Promoters. Obviously, the lower the percentage of Detractors, the higher the level of customer satisfaction with the products and services provided by our company. This type of surveys also helps us compare different levels of service within our own offer, which also helps to identify improvements within the company’s overall portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s see a first simple example: let’s imagine that we send a satisfaction survey to 100 of our clients where 70% are Promoters, 10% are Liabilities and 20% are Detractors. The formula for calculating the NPS would be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NPS = 70% – 20% = 50<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As it can be verified, the Liabilities are not considered to calculate the NPS since they do not contribute relevant information to our calculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to make a good satisfaction survey?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A good satisfaction survey is one that provides us with data of interest from an inquiry that we would structure in two phases:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
