The benchmark is a compilation of all feedback gathered from over 700 printers participating in SurveyAdvantage’s award-winning online service that enables local businesses of all types to react quickly to customer complaints and opportunities, as well as automatically encourage 5-star reviews on Google, Facebook and their website. The PBSI™ is the most comprehensive measure of print buyer loyalty available in the graphics industry.

To qualify, there must be customer satisfaction data for each of the three months of the quarter in which the award is calculated and there must be no fewer than 15 respondents for the quarter. An overall winner is chosen by calculating the percentage of customers who indicated they were very likely to recommend the printer. To break any ties, a percentage is calculated from those who chose to leave a comment.
The vision of the PBSI™ is to improve industry performance through reliable real-time buyer satisfaction benchmarking. Visit www.surveyadvantage.com for more information.
