Importance of Service Recovery
Plays a crucial role in achieving customer satisfaction
Tests a firms commitment to satisfaction and service quality
Employee training and motivation is highly important
Impacts customer loyalty and future profitability

The Service Recovery Paradox
Customers who experience a service failure that is satisfactorily resolved may be more likely to make future purchases than customers without problems
If second service failure occurs, the paradox disappearscustomers expectations have been raised and they become disillusioned
Severity and recoverability of failure (e.g., spoiled wedding photos) may limit firms ability to delight customer with recovery efforts
Best strategy: Do it right the first time

Dealing with Customer Fraud
Treating all customers with suspicion is likely to alienate them
TARP found only 1 to 2 percent of customer base engages in premeditated fraudso why treat remaining 98 percent of honest customers as potential crooks?
Insights from research on guarantee cheating
Amount of a guarantee payout had no effect on customer cheating
Repeat-purchase intention reduced cheating intent
Customers are reluctant to cheat if service quality is high (rather than just satisfactory)
Managerial implication
Firms can benefit from offering 100 percent money-back guarantees
Guarantees should be offered to regular customers as part of membership program
Excellent service firms have less to worry about than average providers
