We all need to know what we are doing well, what we should improve and how much our customers love us.

Why APM

Your customer already gave an opinion. They just didn't tell you.

Guided satisfaction surveys ask for a score per variable. Someone gives you a 5 for speed, but you don't know speed at what. Someone gives you a 5 for product quality, but you don't know what they mean.

And scores are subjective: a 5 doesn't mean the same to your customer as it does to you. A score tells you how much, but not what happened or what to do on Monday.

This is where APM comes in

APM is a qualitative-quantitative measurement. Your customers tell you in their own words what happened and choose what they felt. You know exactly what to improve, and you also get a comparable number.

A score doesn't tell you what happened

Guided survey

Speed1234567

Speed at what? At the checkout, on delivery or when answering a message?

Product quality1234567

What do they mean? Taste, freshness, size, packaging?

A 5 doesn't mean the same to your customer as it does to you.

APM · qualitative-quantitative

  • They served me quickly at the checkoutJoy · now you know which speed they value
  • The afternoon bread was staleDisgust · now you know which part of the product is failing
  • There was nowhere to parkSadness · something they expected was missing
Anger≠Sadness

An angry customer is not the same as a sad one. The emotion tells you how they lived what happened.

85% BrandLover · the number to compare, without losing the why

A methodology grounded in biology and neuroscience: it replaces focus groups and in-depth interviews, and also allows quantitative analysis.

The questionnaire

45 seconds. That's all we ask for.

Your customer receives an invitation. They open it, answer and they're done. Four questions take one tap and one is written in their own words. No 1-to-10 scales, no endless forms, no questions nobody understands. Try it here: rate this very page.

First, memory

Two questions separate what is fulfilled from what is remembered. The “…” is replaced by whatever you want to measure: your brand, a service, a product, a channel or a person.

Then, their words

A single open question that changes depending on the previous answers: why it was very good, what was missing for it to be very good, or why it was bad. Nobody explains what is missing better than someone who almost had a great time.

P3 · P4 · P5

And finally, emotion and loyalty

P3 measures your customer's emotion with seven universal emotions. P4 and P5 measure their loyalty: whether they will buy, renew or hire again, and whether they recommend you.

How we analyze the information

From one sentence to knowing exactly what to do

Every response goes through the same process, validated with more than 500,000 responses coded over 8 years and grounded in neuroscience (Barrett, Damasio, Kahneman). Here is how it looks with a real response:

Tenderness

“The response is fast, delivery times adapt to our needs”

    The 5 questions, with a role filter: who buys, who decides and who uses.

    P1 YesP1.1 YesP2 openP3 TendernessP4 YesP5 Yes
  2. 2We code

    AI classifies the sentence into components and into the 12 universal drivers, as positive or “can improve”. One sentence can fall into several drivers. A human team checks quality with control samples: agreement is above 95% at driver level.

    Speed +Fulfillment · Committed times +
  3. 3Emotion and loyalty

    We add the emotion they chose and whether they come back and recommend. Surprise counts as positive only if the experience was good.

    Tenderness · positiveComes backRecommends
  4. 4We calculate

    Each customer ends up as BrandLover, Functional or Dismiss, and the three add up to 100%. A customer with a bad experience is never a BrandLover.

    BrandLover
  5. 5We prioritize

    A logistic regression model calculates the conversion probability of each driver and tells you what to move first. We only highlight statistically significant differences.

Two ways to implement it

What you get

  • Three emotional KPIs: BrandLover, Functional and Dismiss
  • 12 universal drivers and conversion probability per driver
  • Predictive model with reliability above 85%, linked to average ticket, purchase frequency and growth

This is how customers speak in APM

DismissDisgust

“Very bad experience: they didn't take my order correctly, I had to go in and ask for service and in the end they forgot my waffles. When I complained, they argued with me instead of solving the problem. Also, there were no outlets available, so I was in a hurry to eat something and keep working, since I couldn't do it there. I had to leave outraged and very hungry.”

Frequently asked questions

What people ask us most

What is APM (Amor por la Marca)?

It is a Chilean methodology grounded in biology and neuroscience that measures your customers' experience with five questions answered in 45 seconds. It doesn't measure scores: it measures whether the experience was memorable, what the person felt, what was missing and whether they will come back and recommend you.

How is APM different from a traditional satisfaction survey?

A traditional satisfaction survey asks for a score per variable, such as speed or quality, but doesn't tell you what the customer means, and the score is subjective. APM measures your customers' satisfaction in 45 seconds with yes-or-no questions, an open question in their own words and the emotion they felt. It is a qualitative-quantitative measurement: it gives you the number to compare and the why.

How much does APM cost?

APM Standard has a one-time setup of CLP 30,000 and annual plans of CLP 60,000 (Basic Individual, up to 500 responses) or CLP 90,000 (Basic Business, up to 1,000 responses). Extra help from an APM Advisor costs CLP 35,000 per hour. Prices are in Chilean pesos and exclude VAT.

Is it suitable for a small business or an independent professional?

Yes. APM is used by large organizations, but also by mini-markets, lube centers, hair salons, restaurants, sports venues, lawyers, dentists, psychologists, doctors, plumbers and other service providers.

Do my customers need to download an app?

No. They receive an invitation by email or scan a QR code, open the link and answer. No apps, no sign-ups and no passwords.

What is a BrandLover?

A customer who had a very good experience, felt a positive emotion and says they will come back and recommend you. APM sorts your customers into three groups that add up to 100%: BrandLover, Functional and Dismiss.

Can I keep my NPS or CSAT?

Yes. In the hybrid mode for companies, the experience question is replaced by your CSAT and the recommendation question by your NPS, so you keep your historical series and add the open question and emotions.

What is Vitrina Virtual?

It is your new website, developed with AI assistance and ranked on Google, with hosting included. You can add the APM methodology and Calagend scheduling and marketplace, and you join the Calagend QR network for visibility in physical locations and online. It costs CLP 60,000 per year, or CLP 30,000 if you already have APM.

What is Calagend?

It is a next-generation scheduling system with a smart calendar, CRM and built-in APM feedback. It includes a website with Vitrina Virtual, a profile on the Calagend marketplace, payment methods, automatic receipt issuing and ongoing support.

I run market research or experience consulting. Can I use APM with my clients?

Yes. Market research companies and customer experience consultants can request a commercial APM license to apply the questionnaire and the APM reading with their own clients.

I am a large company. How do I implement APM?

For corporations and large companies, APM is implemented with EOL Research under a methodology license, in replacement mode (Universal APM Questionnaire) or hybrid mode (keeping your CSAT and NPS), with an industry benchmark and a predictive model.

Who is behind APM and how is data protected?

APM is a technology developed by EOL Research, a Chilean company founded in 2000. Its information security management system has been certified under the ISO 27001 standard by AENOR since 2023.
