Quality in service is very important especially for the growth and development of service sector business enterprises (Powell, 1995). It works as an antecedent of customer satisfaction (Ruyter and Bloemer, 1995). With the increase of the importance of service sector in the economy of Bangladesh, the measurement of service quality became important.

The quality of services offered will determine customer satisfaction and attitudinal loyalty (Ravichandran et al. 2010)...

...business segments needs and concerns, as opposed to attempting to incorporate them into both the business and graphics professional program software, while not completely addressing any one segment. I think that Strong’s proposal has merit but concur with the concerns of the sales and the marketing staff. The positive aspect of the proposal is that the business section appears to have adequate staffing. It is just a matter of positioning the Aldus PageMaker, in the minds of the “novice” business segment that the PageMaker is user friendly, and marketing the PageMaker to appeal to this market and training of the retailers, so they are more knowledgeable. The professional graphic division has the potential to increase future earnings, through their reliance on technical support, which will bring in additional resources. Human resources are already in place for the most part in regards to the business division, along with the skill and knowledge, though it will present a challenge to the Aldus budget. The ability for financial gain is greater in the graphics professional segment, because of the continual need of this segment and the fact that organizations usually operate on contracts, and provide some consistent revenue along with the ability to charge a premium for the product, and the additional, expense of compatible software, along with professional technical support, that will be provided, so Aldus can compete with VARs.

...the website and interviews. Three business problems and the solutions, an evaluation of Club IT's resources, customers, and supply chain, and how various departments can uses these solutions will be discussed in following paragraphs. There are a couple business problems that should be fixed to improve Club IT. First and foremost, the internet connection needs to be upgraded. Switching from the dial-up connection to high-speed internet connection will be a little a little bit more expensive. It may seem like they are saving money with sticking with dial-up but they lose a lot of valuable time waiting for the connection. Dial--up also requires a phone line. High-speed internet does not. Another problem that can be changed to improve Club IT is the latency which is associated with the dial-up connection. High latency can make any type of video conferencing or online gaming very difficult, or almost unattainable. By upgrading to high-speed internet this problem will be fixed. Club IT will have more potential with this upgrade (Rainer & Turban, 2008). The customers must be happy for a business to be successful. However, most of the customers use the internet regularly. Customers are not as connected as they could be to Club IT. There should be a VIP section for Club IT's customers. Club IT should also make a Facebook and Twitter account to connect to their customers. Regular updates will show up on customer’s walls and blogs. This will keep them informed of upcoming events and...
