Cadillac is a brand that needs no introduction. It is an iconic company—a larger-than-life brand that people associate with luxury. But Cadillac’s legacy is also its biggest challenge.

LISTEN to your Customers. Listening. We all know how to do it… but few know how to do it well … and it could be driving your customers away if you don’t do it well.

The whole idea of the Net Promoter Score (NPS) is based around asking customers the question ‘How likely is it that you would recommend our company/product/service to a friend or colleague?’ and proposing to them a variety of response options based on a zero to ten scale. In the years since its introduction, NPS has become used all over the world and few organisations fail to ask their customers this question in one form or another at some point in the organisation/customer interaction.
