Net Promoter Score is becoming an increasingly popular tool used by many companies who try to assess customer loyalty. The Net Promoter Score is based from a model developed by Frederick Reichheld in the book, “The Ultimate Question” (Beyond 2). The system helps measure customer loyalty between an organization and a consumer. The Net Promoter score was designed on an 11-point scale from (0 to 10) and it separates the customers into promoters, passives and detractors (beyond 2). Promoters are people who score 9’s and 10’s on the Net Promoter Score scale. The passives are the people who are 7’s and 8’s on the Net Promoter Score scale. The detractors are the people that are from 0 to 6 on the promoter score scale. One of the main goals of the Net Promoter Score scale is to recognize what each of the companies customers are defined as and to try and convert the detractors and passives to Promoters. The promoters are people who feel their lives are being enriched by their relationship with the company. They are very loyal to the company and have multiple purchases with the company. They tell many different people about the company to try and influence others to shop or use the company. They offer good feedback on how to stay successful or even become more successful in the future. The passive customers are people who make few recommendations to others about the company. Bring little energy to the company and are likely to go to a competitor if they offer a great discount on a product. The detractors are customers who feel that their lives are not enriched by shopping or affiliating with that particular business (Freimark 21). The detractors become dissatisfied with the company or experiences they have had with the company. They ta...

...o when I get into the business field I could possibly implement the idea into any business I work for if they have not already adopted the idea into their company before I get hired. I was intrigued personally by this process do to the fact that I have recently experienced on a personal level the occasions of businesses asking for my personal experience in everything from retail stores, grocery stores and even restaurants who have asked me to take surveys to try and win something just by taking their survey
Another aspect of the topic that attracted me to net promoter score was the idea that companies can falsely report their overall net promoter score. This aspect attracted me to the topic because I found it interesting that some companies think it is ok to say that customers are satisfied with the company even if they are not satisfied with their company at all.

The researchers have their own assumption or known as behavioral view which they assume that the loyalty of a guest toward a brand is based on the repeat transactions occur. The study of O’Malley (1988) show that this approach provides a more realistic picture on how well the brand is performing compare to other competitors. However, this approach have been criticized because unable to differentiate between spurious loyalty and true loyalty.
Marketing Myopia is a short sighted method or narrow minded view of marketing where businesses define their markets in terms of the products or services offered and fail to focus on consumers’ or market needs.

A few years ago, a friend approached me about partnering with her in the purchase of a day spa. I had always wanted the freedom and satisfaction that comes with being my own boss. After deciding to move forward with my partner and buy a day spa, I learned to put together a business plan, personnel criteria, and marketing plan.
The survey shows that those customers who had been given the opportunity to customize a product online engaged more actively with the company. They visited the company’s website more often, stayed longer on the page and exhibited more loyalty to the brand (see Figure 1). In footwear, the research indicates that customers who designed their own shoes gave companies a 50% higher Net Promoter Score, which is a standard way of measuring customer loyalty, than customers who purchased regular products. Higher NPS refers to higher sales, referrals and lifetime customer
The biggest challenge for me was how to change the perception of customers who have been using existing products on the market. Generating ideas to solve problems should not be restricted to existing products on the market. One of the interesting approaches I learned from opportunity evaluation was to create surveys and conduct interviews to further establish the needs of the general public. For example, in the survey my group created for our new product called I-Band, we were able to receive many positive feedback and ideas for improvements on our product. I learned that a survey which allows users to remain anonymous generates a wider variet...
Kumar et al., (2010) identified four customer engagement metrics/ values which include customer lifetime value (the customer’s purchase behavior), customer referral value (as it relates to incentivized referral of new customers), customer influencer value (which includes the customer’s behavior to influence other customers, that is increasing acquisition, retention and share of wallet through word of mouth activity of existing customers as well as prospects), and customer knowledge value (the value added to the firm by feedback from the customer). CEV provides a comprehensive framework that can ultimately lead to more efficient marketing strategies than enable higher long-term contribution from the customer (Kumar et al.,
When it comes to business, especially when it comes to starting one, I tend to think I know it all. Yet in reality, I don't really even know how to get started, enough to make a business efficient, or even get the doors open enough to make the first dollar. When I first think of working/operating a business, I think of no boss but myself, the rules are made by me and no one else, and that seems like a great plan in my eyes. As well as having all company profit coming directly to me, and I get to decide what happens with it. Although I know there is more to it than that, there is forming a budget, working with customers, knowing when to expand, and when to coast through. I also know that in the world of business, that if you aren't moving ahead, you are moving backwards.
