Opinions on the accuracy of Net Promoter Score (NPS) as a customer loyalty measure vary widely.
But like it or not, the reality is that a lot of organizations use NPS. It has become a standard key performance indicator (KPI) that many business executives embrace. So it's not going away anytime soon. The question for those of us who care about data accuracy, is how can we augment or possibly modify it to make sure that the data story told by NPS, is going to help the business improve.
Many people think they “know” NPS, but once you dive in and actually start working with it, you find there is more to making it useful than simply counting “promotors” versus “detractors.” A lot more.
In this excerpt from a guest lecture delivered to Research Rockstar students, NPS expert Paul Abel tackles burning questions about controversies surrounding NPS (is it a truly useful measure of loyalty?), and his experience in optimizing research programs that use NPS.
