What’s the Silver Bullet of Customer Measures?

It would be fabulous if we could have just one single customer related measure that told us all we need to know to build a huge, profitable and loyal customer base.

But many of those measures are used wrongly. Customer satisfaction is used a measure of customer loyalty. Net Promoter Score is used as a proxy for business growth. Researchers have found that claims like these are tenuous, and modest at best, and certainly not consistent across all industries.

A little common sense, and taking a moment to think about the results we want relating to customers, can release us from the confusion about which customer measure is the right one, the silver bullet. Let’s explore this by looking at three very popular customer measures.

Customer Satisfaction

It’s THE most commonly used measure of customer performance but Customer Satisfaction is also one of the most widely mis-used measures of customer performance as well. Too often it’s seen as the panacea for all manner of things, including a predictor of business growth, customer loyalty, customer lifetime value and market share.

Come back to the result that the measure is evidencing: it’s how customers feel about the product or service they experienced from you. It’s value is that it helps you know if and when to take a closer look at your products and services and improve their quality, functionality and the experience they give your customers. Your business can’t grow if you don’t have what people want.

Net Promoter Score

A very trendy customer measure right now is the Net Promoter Score. Much of it’s appeal is in its simplicty, but also in the exciting claims that NPS is a strong predictor of business growth. So what’s it really measuring?

You measure NPS by asking your customers the question “How likely is it that you would recommend us to a friend or colleague?” It’s value is that, once you have tested the correlation with actual referred customers, it helps you predict the number of new customers that will come by way of referral. And thus it prompts you to focus on how you can improve the likelihood that your existing customers will refer you.

Customer Lifetime Value

Mistaken at times for a measure of customer loyalty, the CLTV is actually a measure of the dollar value of a customer’s long term relationship with you, from go to whoa. You measure CLTV by a few numbers, so it’s not a trivial measure. You need to know customer spend, profit margin, costs of managing the customer relationship, cost of acquiring the customer, and their probability of retention. So clearly, customer purchasing behaviour and customer retention are drivers of their LTV.

The value of CLTV is that it focuses you on two important things that will drive business growth: how profitable your customers are that you are attracting, and how well you can retain them.

Revelation: there’s no silver bullet!

When you think about the specific performance result that each type of customer measure is truly reflecting, you can quickly see that it’s horses for courses. There is no panacea, no silver bullet customer performance measure that tells you all you need to know. So, which customer performance results are currently important to you? Start with that, and then select the measures that matter for those results! Consciously choose the measures you need.

Rust is a problem faced since ancient times. Rust or ferrous oxide is formed in the presence of moisture and oxygen and has harmful effects on metals. Even concrete is susceptible to corrosive agents and different chemicals. A good concrete coating can take care of the problem effectively.

Rust Bullet provides a concrete coating that acts as a barrier against water, chemicals, and oils. It can even protect the concrete from strong chemicals such as sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid and battery acid. The concrete will become more wear resistant thus increasing the life of the concrete structure. Rust Bullet adds a strong non-porous coating to the concrete which provides additional strength.

The most common feature in concrete buildings is the huge metal structure. Unprotected concrete allows moisture to seep through small cracks and tiny holes. As moisture is one of the causes of rust, it results in rusting of the whole structure. Rust weakens the whole structure and damages the expensive buildings framework. To protect the metal structure it is essential that the concrete structure is protected with a protective coating. Rust Bullet provides armor like shield for the concrete structure.

Rust Bullet is a patented product that has the ability to seal cracks up to ¼ inch. To apply the product, first clean the dirt and debris off the surface it must be completely dry before you apply the Rust Bullet coating to the dry surface.

Rust Bullet coating can be applied as a floor coating to protect floor areas that are susceptible to wear & tear such as personal garage or shop floors. Rust Bullet works great on loading docks also.
