Getting perfect 10s on your NPS surveys? Fantastic, but you’re only scratching the surface…
Your customers are raving about your brand, giving out perfect 10s on NPS and CSAT surveys. That’s amazing. But did you know that you’re only scratching the surface in terms of driving value from those customers?
High NPS and CSAT scores are a fantastic starting point, but how do you know if your promoters are actually advocating and shouting about your brand?
Below, we’ll explain how tracked referrals can bridge the gap between high survey scores and tangible revenue.
Simply leveraging high survey scores isn't enough if you want to drive sustainable growth from your biggest fans. What if all those 10s aren’t driving any new business? What if they love your brand but keep it to themselves?
This is where tracked referrals make a difference.
They provide concrete evidence about how much a promoter is shouting about your brand. Without tracked referrals, segmenting and targeting all of your NPS 10s and hoping to drive profitable growth is like sifting for gold with a broken pan — you’re going to waste time and miss golden opportunities.
Tracked referrals and advocacy insights are the gold standard of sifting pans, helping you catch and nurture your most valuable customers, without relying blindly on your high survey scorers.
You know why to use tracked referrals: they help turn intangible NPS scores into real, measurable revenue streams.
But how does tracking referrals show you who’s spreading the word about your brand?
Let’s break it down step-by-step using Mention Me as an example.
Start by launching a best-in-class referral programme. With Mention Me, you can use Name Share® alongside A/B tests to capture as many word-of-mouth referrals as possible.
Name Share® makes referring effortless for customers, enabling them to refer friends using just their name at checkout — no links needed. It currently drives between 30% and 77% of referrals for some of our brands.
Then, continuously optimise your referral programme through A/B testing, which typically delivers a 4x boost in customer acquisition for our brands in the first six months.
But what about all your 9s and 10s? Do you simply forget about them? Absolutely not.
Using Mention Me, you can easily find and show to your NPS top scorers a message asking them to enrol in your referral programme. That way, you can capture as many promoters as possible.
This tool uses referral data to uncover hidden networks of fans within your customer base. It helps you create unique experiences, communicate more effectively, and nurture groups of fans who can sustainably grow your brand.
With all this referral data at your disposal, you can continuously maximise the value from your brand promoters. Relying solely on NPS surveys leaves you in the dark about who’s actually promoting your brand, which can lead to wasted time and money on disengaged customers.
However, with tracked referrals, you know exactly who is advocating for your brand — and who will continue to do so over the next 12 months. This enables you to focus your efforts on driving sustainable growth through your most valuable promoters.
Don’t just settle for high scores. Transform them into real business growth.
High NPS and CSAT scores are great starting points, but true real value lies in tracked referrals. This strategy bridges the gap between customer love and tangible revenue, turning your promoters into proactive brand advocates who drive sustainable growth.
Mention Me’s AI data models are designed to help your brand identify, nurture, and maximise value from your most enthusiastic customers. The result? More effective targeting, a surge in lead generation, and a bottom line that reflects your brand’s valuable customer base.
