Book Description

1 Sep 2011 1422173356 978-1422173350 Revised and expanded ed
In the first edition of this landmark book, business loyalty guru Fred Reichheld revealed the question most critical to your company’s future: “Would you recommend us to a friend?” By asking customers this question, you identify detractors, who sully your firm’s reputation and readily switch to competitors, and promoters, who generate good profits and true, sustainable growth.

You also generate a vital metric: your Net Promoter Score. Since the book was first published, Net Promoter has transformed companies, across industries and sectors, constituting a game-changing system and ethos that rivals Six Sigma in its power.

In this thoroughly updated and expanded edition, Reichheld, with Bain colleague Rob Markey, explains how practitioners have built Net Promoter into a full-fledged management system that drives extraordinary financial and competitive results.

Practical and insightful, The Ultimate Question 2.0 provides a blueprint for long-term growth and success.

By Robert Morris TOP 100 REVIEWER
Format:Hardcover
This is a revised and expanded second edition of a book published in 2006. In it, Fred Reichheld skillfully develops several concepts in much greater depth. In most of his previous books and articles, he focuses his primary attention on how to build and then sustain trust between and among those who share a workforce. Trust is again an important theme in this latest book because, if customers do not have trust in a company, its people, and its products and services as well as in its values, they will have little (if anything) to do with it and will certainly not recommend it to others.

The eponymous book titles refer to a question of ultimate importance: 'On a zero-to-ten scale, how likely is it that you would recommend us (or this product/service/brand) to a family member, friend or colleague?' As Reichheld explains, the phrasing of that question is 'a shorthand wording of a more basic question, which is, [begin italics] Have we treated you right, in a manner that is worthy of your loyalty? [end italics] 'But the question really wasn''t [and isn't] the heart of things. After all, no company can expect to increase its growth or profitability merely by conducting surveys, however the question or questions might be phrased.'

With assistance from Markey, what Reichheld does is provide a cohesive, comprehensive, and cost-effective management system by which that has three central components: categorizing customers into one of three categories (i.e. Promoters, Passives, an Detractors) through a simply survey, creating an easy-to-understand score based on that categorization, and finally, 'framing progress and success in these terms, thereby motivating everyone in the organization to take the actions required to produce more promoters and fewer detractors.

4.0 out of 5 stars nice book 24 Dec 2012
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
we are using NPS in the company where I work, nice book, but sometimes a bit too simple or not enough professional.
Some chapters seems to exist only for a larger book size.
But it explains well the NPS methodology.

This is a great book, it's well written and gives some great examples of how companies have implemented NPS into their organisations and the benefits of doing so.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Ultimate Questioned answered 13 Feb 2012
By Trekian
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this book at the request of my boss to see how we could introduce net promoter scores in our business. Having read the book, I am a convert and it is now my opinion that all businesses should run with this pointing to customer focus.

Littered with examples, some british, it explains all you need to know about the basics of why customer service can only really work if the whole business focuses on it in an organic way.

A good book with a little jargon but very understandable.
