Although much attention has been paid to customer satisfaction (CS) as a leading indicator of firm performance, few studies have investigated the role of CS distribution across individual customers. With 10 years of National Customer Satisfaction Index (NCSI) data in Korea, we examine the relationship between the variance of CS and key corporate performance measures such as revenue, profit, Tobin's q, and stock return. There are three main findings. First, we confirm the findings of previous studies that the average CS for a firm is related to the firm's economic performance. Second, we find a moderating effect of CS variance such that the relationship between the level of CS and firm performance is attenuated by the variance of CS. Finally, the variance of CS is found to directly affect firm performance over and above the CS level effect. More specifically, the variance decreases sales and stock return.

Customer satisfaction is an ever-growing concern of management throughout the world. To find the way to increase customer satisfaction, we must understand customer requirements. Kano distinguishes between three types of product requirements(must-be, one-dimensional, attractive requirement) which influence customer satisfaction in different ways when met. Timko has developed customer satisfaction(CS) coefficient based on Kano model. The CS coefficient is indicative of how strongly a product feature may influence satisfaction. In this paper, potential customer satisfaction improvement(PCSI) index was developed using Kano model and CS coefficient. The PCSI index represents how much a product feature can increase the degree of customer satisfaction when the product feature is fully fulfilled. In order to explain the meaning of PCSI index, a case study for cellular phones is done. It is also discussed how to use the index strategically.

Mobile telecommunication service is one of the most competitive and rapidly growing industries in Korea. In competitive environments, it is essential to measure and improve customer satisfaction(CS) levels. However, there are a few problems in existing methods of CS measurement. First, sacrifice such as price is not included properly. Thus, the CS is not expanded into the value concept which is important to customer's behavioral intention. Second, CS measurements are not benchmarked with other competitive companies and CS index cannot reflex it properly. AT&T experienced these problems and suggested customer value added (CVA) for CS measurement. In this study, we try to introduce the CVA concept into our mobile telecom services. CS attributes were constructed, an survey was conducted for 5 mobile telecom companies, CS survey results were presented, and the validity of CVA concept was discussed.
