Customer Satisfaction Survey Results Give Freightquote.com a 20 Percent Increase in Their Net Promoter Score

LENEXA, Kan., June 21, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Freightquote.com, the largest online freight broker in the nation, recently surveyed more than 45,000 customers who did business with us last year. Using the Net Promoter methodology, an industry accepted standard, we were able to effectively gauge our customer satisfaction. Of those who responded, 77 percent gave us the high scores of 9 or 10 when asked if they would recommend Freightquote.com to a business partner. This percentage increased our overall rating to 66 percent — a 20 percent increase from last year. According to other published Net Promoter scores, this ranks Freightquote.com among some of the top U.S. companies.

Understandably, the kind of dedicated client service we deliver has directly impacted our growth. Since January, 2010, we have seen a 14 percent growth in revenue. This is a significant increase in comparison to both local businesses and national freight shipping industry leaders. Our relentless commitment to customer satisfaction also has earned us an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. And we continue to develop innovative products and technologies specifically designed to help our customers capitalize on the ever-changing shipping landscape.

When asked to comment about the survey results and our success, Freightquote Director of Customer Service, Lance Huggins, remarked, "Freightquote moves more than a million shipments a year and, at the same time, provides excellent customer service on all levels. That's quite an accomplishment for a company as large as ours."

With more than 1,000 employees, a 12 percent increase from the past year, we continue to grow our account teams in order to provide the best customer service in the industry. Across the board, Freightquote.com recognizes and respects the value of a satisfied customer.
