      The Wallet Allocation Rule is brilliant. Managers need to change their thinking on the importance of rank and how they can position their brand to meet their financial goals. The simplicity of the mathematical model underscores the common sense of the Wallet Allocation Rule. I have a feeling this concept will be applied effectively by enlightened organizations. I enjoyed reading this book and kept thinking that this has a Freakonomics-like quality to it.

– Tom D'Orazio, CEO, Superna Life Sciences

      Satisfaction from your customers means nothing if it doesn't increase your share of wallet! The Wallet Allocation Rule gives you the hard facts and fills the void in how to do exactly that. Not just stories but real strategies to grow your business, your brand, and wow your customers. Just read it!

– Chester Elton, New York Times best-selling author of All In and What Motivates Me

      I like this book. The authors bring data and analyses to demolish widely held but misplaced beliefs in the efficacy of the Net Promoter Score, customer satisfaction, customer loyalty, and other popular measures in causing improvements in growth, market share, and profitability. They put the Wallet Allocation Rule to the test, and it performs. The book is an easy and fast read, with great case studies and charts. The appendices should be helpful to those wishing to put the rule to the test in their own companies.

– George Stalk, senior advisor, The Boston Consulting Group

      The Wallet Allocation Rule is that rare, valuable combination of being strategically insightful and empirically powerful. This creates a path forward for better, data-driven decisions on how to capture more share of wallet while not getting caught in any of the classic pitfalls of satisfying customers without seeing impact.

– James Mendelsohn, chief marketing officer, CAN Capital

      Assumption, so the saying goes, is the mother of all f**k-ups. And yet, as demonstrated in The Wallet Allocation Rule, marketers have been happily throwing money at customer experience management despite the absence of hard evidence of a correlation between customer satisfaction and share of wallet. Over the course of this thought-provoking book, authors Keiningham, Aksoy, Williams, and Buoye convincingly pick apart the suitability of existing satisfaction and reputational metrics at predicting customer spend and posit a potential solution to the problem – the Wallet Allocation Rule. Explaining the scientific foundation for the rule and its practical applications, readers finally have the missing link within their grasp – the ability to link their existing customer metrics to share of wallet.

– Neil Davey, editor, MyCustomer.com

      I've been following Timothy Keiningham's research and thought-provoking books for over a decade due to our mutual interest in customer loyalty. His most recent book, The Wallet Allocation Rule, is simply brilliant. After years of arguing about which metric is best, this groundbreaking book reveals what really matters: how your brand compares to your competitors' in your customer's mind.

– Bob Thompson, CEO, CustomerThink and author of Hooked On Customers: The Five Habits of Legendary Customer-Centric Companies

      The Wallet Allocation Rule addresses one of the largest challenges I see running Loyalty360. We are privileged to speak to CMOs [chief marketing officers] on a daily basis, and the biggest challenge they face is keeping up with the disparate technology challenges they are confounded with today. The clarion call is metrics; brands are confounded with the best internal metrics, as well as competitive benchmarking metrics by which to gauge the efficacy of their efforts; The Wallet Allocation Rule is one of the best books I have seen that addresses the metrics and insights needed to gauge said efficacy. Having known Tim for many years, the passion he has for brands to enable them to create truly (behaviorally based) loyal customers (advocates) has never wavered, and this book is the zenith of this passion.

– Mark Johnson, CEO and CMO of Loyalty360

      Companies need to focus on customer metrics that drive business results. The Wallet Allocation Rule does a nice job of putting people's attitudes in context of their real-world choices, which, in turn, provides a more direct connection with actual customer behavior.

– Bruce Temkin, managing partner of Temkin Group, cofounder and chair of the Customer Experience Professionals Association (CXPA)

      To achieve better business results, it's essential to rise above the myths and common practices, to adopt superior insights and methods. This book walks you through the fallacies in current thinking and shows empirical evidence that explains incorrect assumptions and proves correct interpretations. Readers will discover revolutionary insights and techniques that can propel them out of their customer experience ROI [return on investment] plateau to achieving strong growth.

– Lynn Hunsaker, founder and head of ClearAction Customer Experience Optimization
Praise from Academic Leaders

      The Wallet Allocation Rule convincingly dispels well-established myths about customer satisfaction and provides a new metric for predicting market share growth across competing brands. The authors demonstrate through examples, data, and cases that customer satisfaction and NPS [Net Promoter Score] alone are not enough. These must be measured relative to competitors, and the Wallet Allocation Rule is the way to do this. If your goal is market share leadership, this book is a must-read!

– Mary Jo Bitner, professor and Edward M. Carson Chair, Arizona State University, Editor, Journal of Service Research

      The Wallet Allocation Rule is an unabashed challenge to the current state of marketing within organizations. It eviscerates the navel-gazing customer satisfaction focus of most organizations seeking growth through customer experience management. But the book isn't just a critique of current practice. It provides a real, scientifically vetted solution to the problem – something sorely lacking for the highly touted but soon discounted management buzzwords. This book is certain to be one of the most important business books of the decade.

– Edward C. Malthouse, Theodore R. and Annie Laurie Sills Professor of Integrated Marketing Communications, Northwestern University

      In today's metrics-driven age, a new metric that companies will benefit from knowing is how high up they are in their customers' shopping budgets. The historically popular metrics of satisfaction and purchase intent have been shown to have little or no predictive power in gauging actual purchases/repurchases. These metrics also do not offer managers information on what proportion of money consumers are willing to spend on their brand and whether their competitors
