Customers have so much choice available to them at their fingertips that customer loyalty can never be taken for granted. Companies need to ensure that they strive to meet every requirement of its customers and when customer issues do arise, they are positively managed as quickly as possible.
So how do you go about ensuring you're customers are satisfied? By conducting customer satisfaction surveys in a structured, regular fashion in order to monitor the experiences and satisfaction of your customer base.
CSAT - Customer Satisfaction
CSAT is short for Customer Satisfaction, which is a commonly-used key performance indicator used to track how satisfied customers are with your organization’s products and/or services.
Measuring CSAT
CSAT is measured by one or more variations of this question that usually appears at the end of a customer feedback survey: “How would you rate your overall satisfaction with the [goods/service] you received?” Respondents use the following 1 to 5 scale:
1. Very unsatisfied
2. Unsatisfied
3. Neutral
4. Satisfied
5. Very satisfied
The results can be averaged out to give a Composite Customer Satisfaction Score, although CSAT scores are more usually expressed as a percentage scale: 100% being total customer satisfaction, 0% total customer dissatisfaction.
Calculating CSAT
CSAT is calculated by taking only the responses of 4 (satisfied) and 5 (very satisfied) responses from the results of a CSAT, combining these and then dividing by the total number of survey responses. The result is the % of satisfied customers arising from the CSAT.

Why measure customer satisfaction?
Customer Satisfaction now more than ever, is a standard to measure whether your company is successful or not. Engaging with your customers demonstrates to them that you value their opinions and goes a long way to building customer loyalty. When your customers aren’t satisfied, you risk losing business to your competitors.

The difference is between CSAT and NPS
CSAT measures customer satisfaction with a product or service, whereas NPS measures customer loyalty to the organization.
CSAT targets a reaction to a specific interaction, product, or event and may use multiple questions to focus on specific parts of the customer experience, e.g., “How would you rate your overall satisfaction with the telephone service you received/helpfulness of assistant/delivery?’”
NPS focuses on a single question to measure a customer’s loyalty, “How likely is it that you would recommend [Organization X/Product Y/Service Z] to a friend or colleague?”
NPS is therefore a much broader measure of your customer’s loyalty to your company whereas CSAT is much more specific measure of your customer’s satisfaction with regard to your products/services or an interaction a customer had with your company.
