customers face a growing range of choice in the products & the services
they can buy. They are making their choice on the basis of their perceptions of
quality, service and volume. A company needs to understand the determinants of
a customer volume and customer satisfaction, and customer behavior is the
difference between total customer value and total customer cost,
Customer
satisfaction is out come felt by buyers who have experienced a company’s
performance that has fulfilled expectations. Customers are satisfied when their
expectations are exceeded satisfied customers remain loyal longer, buy more,
are less price sensitive, and talk favorable about the company. To create
customer satisfaction companies must manage their value change as well as the
whole value delivery system in customer- centered way.

should retain customers by understanding the behavior of customers, thereby
making relationships in a longer run.
