ICERTIAS Announces International Customers’ Friend Award - Redesigned

Today, with the introduction of a significantly improved methodology, companies that offer an
excellent user experience can be part of a completely new edition of the international research and
reward programme - Customers' Friend.

Zurich, Switzerland, November 09, 2018 --(PR.com)-- The international organisation ICERTIAS, today
in Zurich, presented a complete redesign and new and improved methodology for their Customers' Friend
award programme.

Launched four years ago in September 2014, the international Customers' Friend project was created with
the purpose of seeking out, detecting and rewarding companies that provide their clients and customers
with the best user experience - those that foster a high level of professionalism, competence, kindness and
transparency.

Up until now, the Customers' Friend medal was in the form of a red pentagram representing a red
diamond.

In designing today's Customers' Friend medal, more than 12,000 respondents in more than 60 countries
around the globe participated and contributed with their opinions and advice. It can therefore truly be said
that more than 12,000 "designers" and opinion makers from all over the world - on five continents -
participated in the creation and design of the brand new Customers' Friend medal.

In order to create the most acceptable and impressive medal for the Customers' Friend certification, in a
series of 24 surveys (from February to June 2018), the international organisation ICERTIAS asked 12,368
respondents worldwide about their preferences regarding the form and appearance of the medal itself.

At the very beginning, 13 distinct medals were presented to the respondents. After the respondents chose
what they regarded to be the most desirable, further design iterations and work on detail followed, and
with each step a new survey to determine the direction of further design development.

The final Customers' Friend medal seen today is therefore a result not only of leading graphic designers
and marketing experts but also of the opinions and advice of consumers from all over the world.

The result is indeed an impressive and extremely conspicuous new Customers' Friend medal that
represents trust between consumers and suppliers on the market - and equally important - a medal that has
a story - a medal with a heart in which the consumer is the centre. It is an acknowledgement that attracts
attention and encourages additional customer confidence.
