Abstract
Contends that service relationship marketing is all about promises: in order to keep a promise made to potential customers, service companies must ensure delivery of their promises. Discusses the making of promises: what to promise the consumer; why every service firm should strive to fulfill its promises; and what to do if the promises cannot be kept. Presents recommendations pertaining to these three aspects of making promises.
