How do I set up a customer feedback programme?
Start with the decisions the feedback must inform, then choose one metric per touchpoint (NPS, CSAT or effort), write short neutral surveys, sample to avoid fatigue, follow up unhappy customers within days, code comments into themes, report scores with their margin of error and give every fix an owner. The Customer Feedback Programme Kit from Bodhih Training has a file for each step.

You already feel the problem. Here is what it is costing you.
A score nobody can explain
NPS falls and the meeting fills with guesses. Sales blames the product, the product team blames support, and nobody has read the comments.
Surveys that annoy customers
Long questionnaires sent after every contact, reminders that never stop and a falling response rate. The customers who still answer are no longer typical.
Comments in a folder
Hundreds of free-text answers arrive each month. Without a coding frame the loudest comment wins, and AI summaries sound confident but go unchecked.
Unhappy customers who never hear back
A customer scores you 2, says what went wrong and agrees to be contacted. Nobody calls. They learn that feedback goes nowhere, and so do their friends.
Reports that produce no decisions
Fourteen slides of charts, everyone agrees it is interesting, and nobody leaves owning a fix. Next month the same themes come back.
Picture the next few weeks with the kit open beside you.
Picture the first Tuesday of next month. Instead of a slide that says the score went down, you open the Voice of Customer Workbook and show the number with its margin, the words 'within noise' or 'likely real', and the two themes that explain it, each with a named owner and a date.
As you open the Closed Loop sheet, you can see that every customer who asked to be contacted heard from a person within two days, what they told you, and which action their call fed into. When a leader asks what customers think of the new process, you read them three short quotes in customers' own words.
Whether you start with the Feedback Programme Plan this afternoon or with the Survey Question Bank tomorrow morning, each step has a file waiting. The calculator tells you how many responses you need. The Question-Writing Card catches the leading question before it goes out. The message library has the exact words for the detractor call you have been putting off.
And at the end of the quarter, when you send customers a short note that begins 'You told us', you will know exactly what changed, when, and whether it worked.

Lumio's relationship NPS ran 28, 24, 13, 4, 18 and 33 from May to October, with about 100 responses a month and margins of roughly 15 to 16 points. Every single month-to-month change was within noise. Yet the picture was not random. Three months fell in a row, then the score recovered after the fixes went live. Comparing August with October, a change of 29 points against a combined margin of about 22, is likely real. September to October, plus 15, is still within noise on its own. For the board, Priya reported the third quarter as 12, plus or minus 9, from 300 responses, and used it as the baseline for the next quarter. The effort scores told the same story more directly. In May and June, 92% of effort answers on installation, first bill, moves and outages were "easy". In August it was 54%.

The Customer Feedback Programme Kit: FAQs
Read the free guideAlready bought? Resend my linkWhat is a voice of customer programme?
A voice of customer (VoC) programme is the regular way an organisation listens to customers, works out what they are saying and acts on it. It combines surveys at chosen moments with other sources such as interviews, reviews, support tickets and cancellation reasons, follows up with unhappy customers and turns recurring themes into fixes with owners.
Should I use NPS, CSAT or Customer Effort Score?
Use each for a different job. NPS, from Fred Reichheld and Bain & Company, suits an overall relationship view on a regular sample. CSAT suits a specific interaction such as a support contact. Customer Effort Score, from CEB research now part of Gartner, suits a task such as installation or paying a bill. The kit's Metric Chooser Decision Card helps you pick one per touchpoint.
What is a good NPS score?
There is no universal good score. NPS varies by sector, country, channel and how the survey is run, so published benchmarks are rarely comparable with your own. Compare with your own trend first, report the margin of error, and only compare with others when the method matches.
How many survey responses do I need?
Fewer than most people think, because precision depends on the number of responses rather than the share of customers asked. With about 100 responses a monthly NPS has a margin of roughly plus or minus 15 points; with 300, about plus or minus 9. The Survey Sample Size and Margin Calculator works it out for your numbers.
How do I close the loop with detractors?
Contact customers who gave a low score and agreed to be contacted, ideally within two days. Thank them, listen without defending, put right what you can, agree what happens next and record the root cause. The Closed-Loop Call Record and the scripts in the message library walk you through each call.
Can I use AI to analyse customer comments?
Yes, with care. AI tools can draft a coding frame, code comments and summarise interviews quickly. Anonymise data first, give the tool your own frame, check a sample against human coding every month and keep decisions about customers with people. The kit includes 31 prompts with checks.
Is it all right to ask only happy customers for reviews?
No. Selectively asking happy customers for reviews, often called review gating, breaks the policies of major review platforms such as Google Business Profile, and fake-review rules in places such as the US and UK go further. Ask every customer the same way. The kit's country notes are dated October 2026; check the current rules and your adviser.
Does the kit work outside India, the UK or the US?
Yes. Scales, targets and thresholds are settings, the tools work in any currency or language, and the privacy, review and AI notes cover the EU, UK, US, India, the Gulf, Singapore, the Philippines, several African countries and Australia. They are educational notes, not legal advice.
How can I measure my starting point?
Bodhih's AssessAll platform offers separate assessments that match this kit: the Survey and Questionnaire Design Assessment for Research, HR and Customer Insight Teams, Data Interpretation: Tables and Charts, and Data-Informed Leadership. Links are on the Start Here map. They are not included in the kit.
How do I turn this into a development plan for my team?
Use the kit's 30/60/90 day plan for the programme itself. To turn the skills it needs, such as survey design, data interpretation and leading with evidence, into a personal or team development plan, see how a Jobulary development plan works at jobulary.com.
How much does The Customer Feedback Programme Kit cost?
₹999 including 18% GST for buyers in India, or $29 for buyers outside India. One-time payment, no subscription, with an automatic invoice.
How do I get the files after paying?
Instantly. Your download page opens the moment payment succeeds, and a permanent download link is emailed to you. Download each file separately or everything in one ZIP.
What software do I need?
Any of the usual tools: Excel or Google Sheets for spreadsheets, Word or Google Docs for templates, Adobe Acrobat Reader, Preview, Xodo or GoodNotes for the fillable PDFs, and Google, Outlook or Apple Calendar for the calendar plan.
Can I get a refund?
Because it is a digital download, kits are not refundable once downloaded. We always refund a duplicate charge or a failed delivery, and if a file is corrupted and we cannot fix it within 3 working days. Full terms: bodhih.org/refunds.
Can my company buy this for a team?
Yes. Team and company licences, and workshops on this topic run by Bodhih Training, are available. Write to solutions@bodhih.com or call +91 99000 11601.
