Business means customers and customers means business. It is impossible to imagine a business without customers. Customers are directly proportional to business. More the number of customers, more prosperous is the business. Just as "Athithi Devo Bhava" is the tag line of tourism industry, similarly "Garahak Devo Bhava" should be the motto of the business world. Customers are not different from business but they are an essential part of business. From ancient times, the customers are referred and treated as God in various countries. Every individual has a strong and invisible bonding with God and there is no chance of any misunderstanding between them. Similarly if the customers are treated as God, then it becomes the duty of the vendor to satisfy the customer to the fullest. Whenever a businessman thinks of bringing more creativity in his company or firm, tries to become more prosperous or implementation of any strategy, he should first think that what more he could do for his customers through this improvisation so that he could provide better service to his customers. If he thinks in such way then it will definitely help him to improve his customer relations.

However customer satisfaction could not be measured by using any specific criteria. It is completely a personnel experience and it keeps on changing from time to time on the basis of nature, quality and demand of the product. The opinion of customer varies from product to product. Whenever a company launches a new product in the market then it tries to attract customer attention through following activities:

1. Public opinion and satisfaction.
2. Strong advertising
3. Previous experience.

When this newly launched product becomes a successful brand then the company is required to meet the following needs of the customer in order to maintain its level in the market.

1. Necessity of the product.
2. Services given by the brand company.
3. Cost of the product.
4. Quality of the product.

If the businessman gathers little courage and applies practical knowledge, then he can easily adopt the magnetic skill of making the customers his lifetime salesman. Mahatma Gandhi has said," Any customer coming in our working area is an important visitor. He is not dependent on us but we are dependent on him.
