CX analytics - go beyond customer satisfaction and NPS

What metrics should you be measuring to track the impact of your Journey Management initiatives?

A data-driven approach will help in goal setting, performance tracking and enables companies to make long-term decisions that will enhance loyalty in their customers and increase revenue.

Rather than focusing solely on the Net Promoter Score (NPS) from customer feedback, which is an indication metric of customer satisfaction, CX analytics provide a more comprehensive view of the impact of CX strategy on a company’s bottom line and allows multiple teams to align under one goal. NPS can be one of many KPIs that can be included in your CX analytics.
