Also called NPS, it works based on the principle that the customers of a company can be divided into three categories: promoters, passives, and detractors. So, it all starts with the question “Would you recommend our company/product/service to a colleague or friend?

Customers are told to respond to a 0 to 10 point rating scale, and they are categorized like this:

1. Detractors

Detractors usually give a score from 0 to 6, and they are the unhappy customers who can damage your brand. They could make others turn away and not even try the products they are even interested in, giving your firm a bad reputation.

2. Passives

Passives give a score of 7-8 and, while they are satisfied with your products, they are also vulnerable to the offers of your competitors.
