Metrics to measure the consumer experience (CX) in your business
The Net Promoter Score (NPS) is the best known and most used. A question identifies the promoters of the business (those who refer and speak well), the passive ones (who have good experience, but do not refer) and the detractors (have bad experience and share it) - see the graph. The goal is to have more promoters than detractors. Data is collected from the experience in the establishments (through information that the client shares when filling out a form) or at the end of their interaction on a website or in a customer service center (through a service survey).
The satisfaction of the Consumer (CSAT, for its acronym in English) includes several questions using a scale of satisfied dissatisfied areas of the journey customer ( the process by passing a customer to purchase a product or service) and contact points. The variants are star ratings ( ratings ) or evaluations ( reviews ), very common in digital products and services.
The Customer Effort Score (CES) measures, with a question,
the degree of ease or difficulty that the consumer has with a business. The
processes in the business help or prevent the customer from achieving his goal.
This metric is 40% more accurate in predicting loyalty than satisfaction
(CSAT).
In short, consumer experience metrics help your business
design experiences that positively surprise your customers. There are many ways
that fit your budget to meet customer expectations. The recommendation when
starting a CX program is to identify an area and measure the experience by
integrating multiple sources, the consumer and the employee. If your business
has few interactions and touch points, the process can be more straightforward.
If you have many interactions and touch points, there are several solutions to
automate the measurement and visualize the data.
The most important
thing before committing to a CX technology program or solution is to know the
consumer and your business.
