INTRODUCTION
Customer service is the provision of service to customers before, during and after a purchase. Customer service is a series of activities designed to enhance the level of customer satisfaction – that is, the feeling that a product or service has met the customer expectation. Good customer service is all about bringing customers back. Due to intangibility, the customers can’t feel the service, and thus causes lack of confidence of customers to the services. Therefore, the business should ensure that they provide a good, nice, friendly and professional service to the clients. The essence of good customer service is forming a relationship with customers – a relationship that that individual customer feels that he would like to pursue. Customer service is an extremely important part of maintaining ongoing client relationships that are keys to continuing revenue. For this reason, many companies have worked hard to increase their customer satisfaction levels.
