1235 × 2 = 2470
The side effects of word of mouth / The customer
who are dissatisfied with the service that we provide
will share his memories
Слайд 14Quality
Two quality types determine the customer’s idea about
a specific
service.

Слайд 76 In- store Relations
Respect
Friendship
Honesty
Business discipline
Social relationships
Team spirit
Слайд 77Fairness: We should never forget that our honesty is our
only
treasure. Faults are our faults, success is our success,
store is our store. We should give particular importance to
company interests within this awareness.
Working Discipline: First of all, our first responsibility is to start
work on time. The personnel whose shift is over shouldn’t leave
without getting the permission of the manager.
In- store Relations
Слайд 78Social Relations
We see mostly our colleagues in workplace rather than
our family.
Common activities done out of shift hours will develop
interpersonal dialogues.
Mutual understanding is possible only through correct dialogues.
In- store Relations
Слайд 79Team Spirit:
While selecting the personnel, the ones inclined to team
work are
preffered. Each personnel has specific duties in the
store
but it shouldn’t be forgotten that all store personnel are
the members of the same team.
In- store Relations
