Research Implications and Conclusions
study to model and compare the impact of the time series of service recovery efforts
thus cultivating a more exciting theory of nuanced dynamic effects of service recovery
The developed time series econometric models reveal some new and valuable Marketing Dynamics ideas
This study quantifies the dynamic role of service recovery strategies to save customer satisfaction.
Data and Measures

Measurements
Communications
communication strategy is measured as the total cost of spending on
