Net Promoter Score (NPS)

The Net Promoter Score is a measure of customer loyalty and is based on a single question: How likely is it that you’ll recommend your property to a friend or colleague. The response options range from 0 (Not at all likely) to 10 (Extremely likely). Responses are then grouped into the segments of promoters, passives and detractors. Subtracting the proportion of detractors from the proportion of promoters and converting it to a percentage gets you the Net Promoter Score.
