In the article “What is Net Promoter..”, the metric of Net Promoter Score (NPS) is discussed as a powerful measure of customer satisfaction. NPS subtracts the percentage of “Detractors” in a company’s customer base (customers not likely to recommend your company to others) from “Promoters” (customers who are likely to recommend your company). The higher a company’s NPS, the greater the expected impact of satisfied customers on business growth.
