– Recipients of CRMI and Marketii 2019
NorthFace ScoreBoard AwardSM and CRMI’s CEMPRO AwardSM have consistently exceeded customers’ expectations with highly engaged employees –

Chelmsford, MA: June, 2020 – Customer Relationship Management Institute LLC (CRMI) specialists in driving companies’ revenues and profits by implementing Customer Experience (CX) strategies that increase customer satisfaction and employee engagement AND their strategic partner Market Intelligence International (Marketii) a leading customer satisfaction and service quality research and consulting firm announced today that 39 companies have qualified to receive the NorthFace ScoreBoard Award 2019 for superior customer service.

Also, CRMI recognized companies for engaging employees to meet the rigorous customer relationship training requirements needed for CEMPRO Award certification. The certified Customer Experience Management Professional (CEMPRO) program was established in 2010 to provide best-in-class training curricula for organizations who want to ensure that their customer-facing groups (CFG) have mastered the skills needed to deliver consistently exceptional customer service. The award criteria require the entire applicable CFG to receive the training and 90% must achieve a minimum test score of 80% within the calendar year.

Now in its 20th year, the NorthFace ScoreBoard (NFSB) award is presented annually to companies who, as rated solely by their own customers, achieved excellence in customer service during the calendar year. Further, all NFSB recipients who have met the criteria of being a recipient for five (5) contiguous years shall receive special SUMMIT category with the number of contiguous years, denoted on their award, in their NFSB certification letter/deliverables and in their marketing rights.

“The NorthFace ScoreBoard Award is widely recognized as the most prestigious award for customer service excellence due to its unique customer only vote criteria. The award recognizes organizations that not only offer exemplary customer service but those who have chosen to make their CX strategy the critical component of their company’s DNA”, said John Alexander Maraganis, President & CEO of CRMI and Duncan Heal, CEO of Marketii. Each year thousands of companies, both domestic and international, are invited to apply for the NFSB Award. In 2019, more than 1000 companies were invited to participate in NFSB Audit Program – over 300 projects, many international in scope, were audited. CRMI conducts a review/confirmation of their clients CSAT survey results and requires written verification of CSAT survey results/processes by the company’s CX executive management. All NFSB strategic partners are required to review/confirm their clients CSAT survey

results/processes submit results to CRMI for approval. All approved strategic partner clients NFSB awards shall contain strategic partners logo and CRMI’s logo as a Co-branded NFSB Award.

CRMI/Marketii methodology measures customer satisfaction with services on a 5-point scale (or an equivalent rating system) in such categories as technical support, field service, customer service, account management, professional services and other customer facing functions. The 39 companies/business units achieved a 4.0 or above out of a possible 5.0 or an equivalent rating system.

Due to its unique ‘customer-only vote’ criteria, the NorthFace ScoreBoard Award has been viewed from its inception in 2000 as the only objective benchmark for excellence in customer service,” Maraganis/Heal said. “CRMI and Marketii defines ultra-customer loyalty as customers who continuously purchase from the same vendor – even though other choices may offer significantly better pricing – because the vendor consistently exceeds its customers’ expectations via team of highly engaged employees.”
