About Us

Customer Trust Score (CTS) was created as a free service by Trust Brands­™, in an effort to help business owners to quickly and easily measure the effective level of customer trust in their brand, on a scale from 0-100.

Customer Trust Score was developed by the same award-winning team that brought you Shopper Approved®, Trust Guard®, Local Reviews™, and Cart Rocket™.

Our rich heritage of software innovation and development since 2006 has allowed us to earn prestigious recognition as a 2x Inc. 500 fastest growing company, a Utah Fast 50 and Utah 100 company multiple times.

We are a privately held US-owned and operated company, headquartered in Ogden Utah, with a passion for software development and helping our clients grow their businesses.

The 5 Areas of Trust:

The Customer Trust Score (CTS) is based on 5 Key Areas of Trust. Each area of trust represents part of the sales cycle, and is weighted based on it’s importance and what type of business you run (IE. local brick and mortar business, online business, or both).

Customer Trust Score - Visibility
Visibility
How visible is your brand online and how easily can people find you? Are you found in the right places within the conversion funnel? How trustworthy do your brand impressions appear?

Customer Trust Score - Reputation
Reputation
What type of reputation do you have online, where are your reviews showing up, and how are you engaging with your reviewers?

Customer Trust Score - Experience
Experience
What type of experience do customers have with your company once they engage?

Customer Trust Score - Security
Security
What security measures do you take to protect your customer’s information?

Customer Trust Score - Re-engagement
Re-engagement
What are you doing to maintain a relationship of trust beyond the initial sale or engagement to continue building value and awareness?

These 5 areas of trust are vital to every company’s overall success and are often the difference between running a good company or building a great one.

Once you’ve completed a CTS Survey, your Customer Trust Score is generated, along with a customized report, and a checklist of things you can do to improve your overall score.
