Net Promoter Score

Net Promoter Score Definition

What is Net Promoter Score?

The Net Promoter Score is customer feedback metric ranging from -100 to 100 that measures the willingness of customers to recommend a company’s products or services to others. It is the most popular score to measure customer loyalty and is often regarded as ‘The Ultimate Question’.

The Net Promoter Score Scale

Categories & Scale for Net Promoter Score

The Net Promoter Score System is a single question ‘How likely are you to recommend our products/services to your friends and colleagues?’ Customers are to rate this NPS question on a 11-point scale, from 0-10. Based on their rating on the NPS question, the customers are classified in 3 categories: Detractors, Passives and Promoters.

Red Smile

Detractors

Detractors are those that gave a low score between 0-6. They are definitely not happy with the product and services and are very unlikely to purchase again from the company. They are in fact likely to damage the reputation of the company through bad reviews and word of mouth.

Grey Smile

Passives

Passives are those who gave a score of 7 or 8 on the NPS question. They are somewhat satisfied with the business but are likely to switch if another brand or company if an opportunity arises. They don’t hold any loyalty but at the same time they are not likely to bad-mouth the brand. 

Green Smile

Promoters

Promoters are those who answered 9 or 10 on the NPS question. They love the offerings of the company, products and services. They’re extremely likely to be repeat customers and buyers, and will also promote the brand whenever they get a chance to other potential buyers.

Net Promoter Score Calculation
