The Net Promoter Score (NPS) is a scoring model developed by Bain and Co. consultant Frederick F. Reichheld that allows you to identify how willing a customer is to recommend a product or service. It asks respondents to rate on a scale from 0 to 10. The scale is then divided into three sections:
The system will then calculate the aggregate responses of each of the three categories as well as the “Net Promoter Score” (calculated as Promoters minus Detractors).
To add an NPS question to your survey:
| Rating Scale | Detractors | Passives | Promoters |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0-10 | Rating 0-6 | Rating 7 or 8 | Rating 9 or 10 |
| 1-10 | Rating 1-6 | Rating 7 or 8 | Rating 9 or 10 |
| 1-7 | Rating 1-5 | Rating 6 | Rating 7 |
| 1-5 | Rating 1-3 | Rating 4 | Rating 5 |
Validation: By default, the validation option is turned off. Respondents can skip and move ahead in the survey without answering the question. You can enable validation if you don't want to allow respondents to skip this question. By enabling the validation option you can see a drop-down with the following options.
Force response option makes a question mandatory/required. The respondents cannot finish the survey without answering a mandatory question.
When you select request response, the respondent gets a pop-up in case a question is not answered, requesting to answer the question or continue the survey without answering.
Here, the respondents need to click on the score that they wish to give.
To view the report for the NPS question:
In this case, Promoters got 52% responses and Detractors got 15% responses. Hence, NPS is 40% (NPS = 52% - 15%).
You can see the responses for the NPS question underneath the red box in the above image.
