customer however, customer face a vast array product and brand choices price and

limited knowledge ability and income.
The link between satisfaction and customer loyalty is not proportional. Suppose the
customers satisfactions are likely abandon the company and even the company and
the bad of mouth to it higher satisfaction or delight creates the semifinal bond with
the brand or company on just original preference (ibid 2006).
2.2 Customer Expectations
How to buyers form their expectations? From last buying Experience friends and
associated advices and marketer share information and promotes. If marketed raise
Expectation is too high the buyer is likely to be disappointed. However, if the

According to Michael Lanning, delivering profitable valve a company must design
comprehensively superior valve proposition aimed at specific market segment
backed by superior value. The value proposition consists of whole cluster of
benefit that the company promises to deicers it is more than the case positioning of
the offering. For customer centered companies customer satisfaction is both goals
and marketing tools companies that achieve high customer satisfaction rating
market sure that their target market taken out (Kotler’s 2001).

is not its main goals. If the company increases customer satisfaction by lowering
its prices of increasing its service the result may be lower profit,
There are tool for, tracking and measuring customer satisfactory. These are: -

[Link] Customer Lost analysis

switching to another supplier to learn why this happened it is also necessary to
monitor the customer less rate. Companies need to be special concerned with their

(Ibid 2002).

3.4 Population and sample size
The population of the study will be the customer and employees of commercial
bank of Ethiopia yirgalem main branch. It is difficult to study the whole
population. So the researcher will be use simple random sampling to select
customer and Employees of the organization. The main reason why researchers use
simple random sampling that it is free from any bias and easy to handle and
provide equal chance to the selection of group respondent. The total population of
customer is 10000 there were 32 Employees from the total population of customer
the study researcher will take 99 and from 32 total population of Employees, the
researcher takes 22 (50%) of Employees therefore the reason that the researcher
takes the small number of sample from large total population to minimize the
sampling error(10%) As number of sample increase the error also increases and
vice versa. The total sample would be 99+22=121
