Scientific NPS Survey Methodology

SurveyMars implements the Net Promoter Score framework with scientific precision, following the original methodology developed by Bain & Company while incorporating modern advancements in survey methodology. The platform ensures statistical significance in sampling, proper question phrasing, and accurate score calculation. Each NPS survey is designed to measure customer loyalty through the fundamental question  "How likely are you to recommend our company/product/service to a friend or colleague?"  while maintaining the integrity of the established 010 scale. Our system automatically calculates the Net Promoter Score by subtracting the percentage of Detractors (06) from the percentage of Promoters (910), providing a clear metric that ranges from 100 to +100.
