Return-on-Experience Model

Link NPS, CSAT and customer effort directly to churn, ARPU and cost-to-serve, so every experience investment carries a P&L case the CFO respects.

SF
The challenge

CX teams struggle for budget because they cannot prove the return. "Customers are happier" loses every argument against a hard cost line. The missing piece is the money.

How I approach it

A clear path to a usable result

01
Build the linkage

I model the statistical relationship between your experience metrics and commercial outcomes — what a point of NPS is actually worth to you.

02
Translate to a business case

The model becomes a board-ready case that frames CX investment in churn, ARPU and cost terms.

03
Prioritise the spend

A framework to direct experience investment to where the return is highest, not where the noise is loudest.

Frequently asked
What is a CX ROI or Return-on-Experience model?+
A model that links experience metrics such as NPS directly to churn, ARPU and cost-to-serve, so CX investment can be justified in P&L terms. I built the model behind an $80M CEM programme and a TM Forum Catalyst Award-winning initiative.
What data do you need?+
Customer experience metrics over time alongside churn, revenue and cost data. Part of the work is establishing what is reliably available and building the linkage on that.
