Abstract
Attitudes, perceptions, and intentions of a firm's customers, which can be captured via customer feedback metrics (CFMs), provide valuable information about the state of a firm's customer base. CFMs can help capture the impact of marketing actions on future customer behavior and future firm performance, and thus can help make marketing become more accountable. CFMs have received much attention in marketing research and business practice since the 1970s. In this chapter, we provide a short historical overview of the development of, and research about, CFMs, we classify the different types of CFMs, we highlight the empirical findings of the drivers and consequences of CFMs, and we explore how CFMs can be integrated in a firm's customer dashboard in order to make marketing more accountable. We furthermore explore some of the challenges in accurately measuring CFMs, and in the end of this chapter, we provide information on how to capture CFMs in the age of social listening via modern tools involving text-, voice-, and video-mining.
