The benchmark is a compilation of all feedback gathered from over 700 printers participating in CustomerPulse™ - SurveyAdvantage’s award-winning online service that enables local businesses like printers and sign-makers to react quickly to customer complaints and opportunities, and automatically drive testimonials and 5-star reviews to their website and social media networks like Facebook, Google+ and more.  The PBSI™ is the most comprehensive measure of print buyer loyalty available in the printing industry.

To qualify, there must be customer satisfaction data for each of the three months of the quarter in which the award is calculated.  An overall winner is chosen by calculating out decimal points to break any apparent ties.

The vision of the PBSI™ is to improve industry performance through reliable real-time buyer satisfaction benchmarking.  Visit www.surveyadvantage.com for more information.
