We have some clients in CustomerGauge with long tenure. One has 15 years of data, with around 4 million data points. When we fired up Gaige AI and asked some questions, even our CEO Adam was amazed! 


This is real data, from a real client with a CX program that has matured beautifully. And these are the two prompts - read through to the end to see some of the real value here! (names  anonymised here)



Prompt 1: Go back to the start of the program in 2010. Look at the stats: number sent NPS response close loop. And the top drivers for each year. Give me a summary of this 15 year period and suggest a few next steps - use date_email_sent and average the number of days to close the loop (also what percentage of detractors had a close loop)



15-Year Program Journey Summary (2010-2024)

Volume & Response Performance

Your program has shown remarkable growth and evolution:

Early Years (2010-2015):

  • Started modestly with ~17K invitations in 2010, growing to ~121K by 2015
  • Response rates were consistently low (8-12%), typical for early CX programs
  • NPS grew steadily from 15 to 51 - a strong 36-point improvement

Expansion Phase (2016-2019):

  • Massive scale-up: Peak volume of ~484K invitations in 2019
  • Response rates improved significantly to 12-17%
  • NPS plateaued around 45-48, indicating program maturity challenges

Optimization Era (2020-2024):

  • Strategic volume reduction to ~180K invitations (focusing on quality over quantity)
  • Breakthrough in engagement: Response rates dropped to 9-14%, but comment rates soared to 53-85%
  • NPS excellence: Consistent improvement from 56 to 63 - your highest ever

Close-Loop Performance

Your close-loop program shows limited historical activity:

  • Average time to close: 33 days
  • Follow-up performance: 75% achieved within threshold (28 days average)
  • Critical gap: Close-loop cases were only active in 2014-2015 and 2019-2020, with most recent years showing no detractor follow-up activity

Driver Evolution & Insights

2016-2019 Focus:

  • [XXXXX] Adviser dominated (49K responses, NPS 62)
  • [XXXXX] Web Site was secondary concern (18K responses, NPS 36)

2020-2024 Transformation:

  • Consultant's customer service became #1 driver (16K responses, NPS 89)
  • Quality of information provided emerged as key (10K responses, NPS 87)
  • Purchase and transfer process shows excellence (NPS 92)
  • Service quality themes dominate the top drivers

Key Strategic Insights

Strengths:

  • NPS trajectory: 48-point improvement over 15 years (15→63)
  • Engagement quality: Comment rates increased 6x (from ~35% to 85%)
  • Service excellence: Recent drivers show consistently high NPS (80-90+)

⚠️ Critical Gaps:

  • Close-loop abandonment: No detractor follow-up in recent years despite having 1,887 detractors in 2024
  • Response rate decline: Dropped from 17.9% (2016) to 9.4% (2024)

Recommended Next Steps

  1. Reactivate Close-Loop Program

    • You have 1,887 detractors from 2024 with no follow-up
    • Implement systematic detractor outreach within 7-14 days
    • Target: 80%+ detractor follow-up rate, <7 days average response time
  2. Response Rate Recovery

    • Investigate the 8.5 percentage point drop since 2016
    • A/B test email timing, subject lines, and sender optimization
    • Consider multi-channel approaches (SMS, in-app, phone)
  3. Leverage Your Service Excellence

    • Your recent drivers show 80-90+ NPS scores - use these as competitive differentiators
    • Create case studies from your "Purchase and transfer process" (NPS 92)
    • Train teams on "Consultant's customer service" best practices
  4. Strategic Volume Optimization

    • Your 2020-2024 approach (quality over quantity) is working for NPS
    • Consider targeted volume increases in high-performing segments
    • Focus on accounts/touchpoints with historically high response rates

Would you like me to dive deeper into any of these areas or help you develop specific action plans for the close-loop reactivation?





We were curious about the way Gaige highlighted the service excellence:  "Create case studies from your "Purchase and transfer process" (NPS 92)" - so we made the next prompt about that...


Prompt 2: Drill into the "Purchase and Transfer Process" driver for Promoters. Give some good comments and summarize how we can use for marketing.
