Remarking the importance
of quality service in businesses, Peterside said “It is important to draw our
attention to the fact that businesses exist because of the customers. Also,
their customers have to be retained in order to sustain the business. How this
relationship is maintained is by providing quality or excellent service at all
times, because customers will only expend their hard-earned resources on
satisfaction they derive from what they buy.”
