6 Q. How is store penetration measured? A. Your store penetration is calculated by comparing the sales that you make from your primary stores and dividing them by the total sales, from those same stores, for D21, D22 and D23. For example, say you are the primary sales consultant for all HDE products at store 1001-Turlock. Your store penetration calculation would be: Store Penetration = Your total HDE Sales tied to 1001-Turlock / The total sales at Turlock in D21, D22 and D30 Q. How are we measured on VOC and what is the process for monitoring my performance on the survey? A. VOC will be calculated based on surveys taken (completed in the months) from December 1, 2015 until the award period ends on November 27, Sales Consultants and Managers will be scored based on question number 8 on the VOC survey, while ISMs will be scored based on question number 11. Your VOC results will vary slightly from those reflected on the HDE Scorecard that is distributed every Monday as the awards trip is monitoring the specific question to your role vs. aggregate of question 8/9/10 as shown in LMS. If you have any questions on how to influence your VOC scores, please reach out to your manager. Your total VOC score is devised by using the following calculation: VOC Score = Total score from all VOC survey responses from your designated question / total count of surveys taken from your designated question VOC Question 8 reads: How satisfied were you overall with the in-home consultation that occurred prior to your installation? VOC Question 11 reads: How satisfied were you overall with the installation team that worked on your project? VOC Process: The process involves the Convergys call center contacting the customer at a point-in-time following the signed completion certificate to ask the customer a series of questions on their satisfaction with the work performed by THD. These scores are entered into the company s LMS system and are calculated by the SC and ISM assigned to the job.

7 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS Q. What tools are available to help me encourage customers to provide feedback on the VOC survey? A. Part of our sales process includes a leave behind at the point of sale on the project which includes a contact list showing the project team which includes branch associate team members and Ops Center team members. There is a VOC statement on this sheet where the SC should advise that we seek feedback and if we met expectation, we d like to earn a 10. The SC should also work with the install team in partnership to reinforce that if we meet expectation, have we earned a 10. Across the sale process, the install process, and post-sale customer engagement, the sales and install teams should be working together to create the care and engagement that earns the customer s confidence and satisfaction. These behaviors will drive strong VOC scores. Q. What happens if I do not have a 9.0 score at the end of the contest period on November 27, 2016? A. If the average score at the end of the measurement period is below a 9.0, then the criteria to earn the trip will not have been met. Based on 2015, the survey count averaged over 27 surveys per associate providing a statistically relevant sample size for the contest. Q. What happens if I do not have any results for the question that is used to monitor my success and ensure I qualify for the trip? A. Based on 2015, the volume of VOC scores for associates that earn or were near earning the award show the VOC counts are well within the range to produce a reliable VOC score.
