Loyalty versus Satisfaction - What's the Difference?

Satisfaction will not tell you if your customers will defect or your association members will drop their memberships.

Loyalty measurement captures the voice of the customer; their expectations and your performance against those expectations, as well as what you need to do to improve. Unlike satisfaction, loyalty encompasses the total customer experience; giving you a foundation for better decision making and action planning.

Deployment and Integration

At the Loyalty Research Center, our emphasis is on using customer and employee feedback to make a difference in your organization.

Many companies measure customer and employee satisfaction or loyalty, but don't know how to take it to the next level - using the information to drive improvement and change.

We commit to being a change agent partner. Measurement of customer feedback starts the change cycle:


After analyzing the survey data, the Loyalty Research Center's team of experienced market researchers and business consultants works with our clients' management and employee groups to ensure they understand the results. They'll learn from their customers' perspective:
  • How the organization performs relative to the competition
  • Where to focus their improvement efforts to improve the customer relationship
Sometimes, a 'deeper dive' is warranted to better understand customer feedback or to investigate problems uncovered. Appropriate approaches taken by the Loyalty Research Center during the integration phase may include:
  • Root Cause Analysis
  • Focus Groups
  • Testing the efficacy of alternative solutions
  • Building internal metrics that measure the implementation of change initiatives
Once changes are in place, the company will want to re-measure to insure the right changes were made.
