Summary

Introduction

Be it B to B or B to C, customer satisfaction is a benchmark for the sustainability and profitability of a company. According to Kotler (2016) consumer satisfaction is a person's feeling of pleasure or disappointment resulting from comparing a product or service's perceived performance (or outcome) to expectations with the meaning that if the performance or experience does not meet expectations, the customer is dissatisfied and if it is in line with expectations the customer satisfied.

Consumers who are satisfied with the services or products they consume tend to provide good references or recommend a product or service to others.
