NPS Tools: What’s Net Promoter Score [+ 9 Software for E-commerce]

January 5, 2017

Optimizing customer experience on the online site is one of the pain points that almost every e-commerce involvers face because of the analyzing complex data. But, thanks to the fascinating side of having an online site is all data from visitors can be collected. With NPS tools, you are able to understand the journey of customers and find out how likely your users are willing to promote your product or service to their audience.

What is NPS?

So, for those who haven’t heard about what’s NPS, Net Promoter Score, let’s dig a little the definition.

Roughly speaking, NPS is a customer experience and loyalty measurement method towards your brand. It shows the likelihood that your current customers would recommend your product or service to people in their audience. On the basis of the NPS, it simply asks “How likely you would recommend our company/product/service to your audience?” by using a 0-10 scale. They rate your product/service and provide feedback in their own words.

Respondents are divided into three groups according to the score of their answers;

9-10 Promoters are very eager to suggest your product or service. They are repeat buyers, act as advocates of your brand and play a great role in your growth.

7-8 Passives probably satisfied with your product/service but possibly change their mind and switch to a competitor’s offering if they could find a better experience or deal. They wouldn’t spread any negative word-of-mouth but are not so excited about your products or services to actually promote them.

0-6 Detractors are unhappy customers. This group spread more than 80 percent of negative word-of-mouth of total. They will probably churn and defect your product/service.

The next step is to calculate your overall NPS score. The only formula that you need to apply is;

Subtracting the percentage of promoters from the percentage of detractors.

Let’s give a simple example;

Consider that your company has %60 Promoters, %30 Passives, %10 Detractors. Then the result of your NPS score is; Promoters (%60) – Detractors (%10) = %50

Net Promoter Score

Your job doesn’t end by calculating the NPS score and dividing three groups. Now it is time to move on rapidly, take action and grow. These three segments have different experiences, needs and all have to be treated separately. You have to customize NPS follow-ups and create segmented funnels to convert them into leads. And don’t forget! your detractors can become your best ambassadors. If you achieve this transformation and put it in a sustainable format, you will experience growth avalanche.

You can fully automate the NPS process with a number of NPS tools. While the most common way to run the surveys is through email, certain tools provide alternative delivery methods like the web and in-app popups.

Let’s see 9 useful NPS tools to use for your store that helps you to proactively reduce churns and drive growth.
