MANAGING CUSTOMER SERVICE QUALITY 6
The organization provides the customers with a program on health care cost and
management to all the employees (Ryu, Lee, and Gon Kim, 2012, p. 217). The program is meant
to increase the productivity among the workers and lower the overall costs of running the
business. Bounce Fitness is an organization that seeks to ensure that their customers enjoy the
following benefits that are critical to the business. These serve to be the customer service
expectations and needs. They include;
i. Customization
The company promises to offer totally customized solutions for all companies including all
employees within the organizations. This means that the services are targeted towards satisfying
each particular employee and customer to increase customer loyalty (Yoshida, and James, 2010,
p. 350). This ensures that the firm provides the customer with quality services that make them
satisfied and come seeking the same services repeatedly. The customers expect top quality
services that are of convenient cost.
ii. Convenience
Clients are not likely to use services which are not convenient. The Bounce Fitness organization
has been able to recognize this fact and strives at making their services more convenient for all
targeted groups of clients. Convenience involves service delivery based on time. Just like any
other business time factor is important in service and product delivery. The customers expect
timely services that have no delay in delivery as this is part of the factors that satisfy them most.

MANAGING CUSTOMER SERVICE QUALITY 7
and companies so as to grow their share of the market. Result-oriented strategy involves looking
at the end outcome which involves the satisfaction of clients. Customers expect to have services
that satisfy them so that they can be loyal to the company.
Customer service
The customers will be given quality products that meet their preferences, needs and
demands. The business will monitor production processes to make sure that goods and services
produced are of high quality. Good quality products attract customers because they are in line
with their demands. Products of poor quality will discourage customers from buying them
because they will not meet their demands.
Timeliness is a very important factor in a business. Goods and services are supposed to
be produced in time such that they reach the consumers at the time they need them. The business
management should be very smart in coordinating each and every process of production to make
sure that things are done in order and at the correct timing (Mahamad, and Ramayah, 2010, p.
72). Keeping time is a critical issue that the business takes in consideration. It ensures smooth
running of business activities that is aimed at making efficient and effective production. When
products reach consumers at the correct time, a lot of sales are made hence leading to
achievement of goals and objectives of the business.
In a business, cost of products is a key factor to consider. The business sets fair costs on
goods and services so that consumers may purchase without complaining. Goods of high quality
are charged at a considerable price that is worthy the product. Cost of goods may encourage or
discourage consumers from buying the products. Customer loyalty will be rewarded through
costs that are subsidized. Customers who recommend others will also be considered.
