How to set NPS targets in four steps

A four-step process for setting Net Promoter Score targets a team can actually hit. Start from a baseline of 100 or more responses, aim for a gain of 5 to 10 points over six months, frame the goal as fewer detractors and track the score by segment. Koji follows each score with an AI interview question, so when the number moves you can see why.

What's in this process
- Establish your baseline: Run a representative survey, get 100 or more responses and accept the number you get.
- Set a six-month target: A realistic gain is 5 to 10 points per period. Bigger jumps usually come from skewed samples.
- Tie it to fewer detractors: Cutting detractors from 22% to 15% in six months is easier to act on than raising NPS to 45.
- Track NPS by segment: Your overall score averages very different cohorts. Split it by tier, persona or use case to see where to invest.
