What is "Quality"?

Quality involves everything about your product and business. Your product quality, at its essence, is the actual feel, smell, sound, taste, and look of your product. Whether you provide a service or a tangible product, these factors are combined to impact your customers' senses. And more importantly, they provide the first impressions so critical to your company's success. Considering the elements of your quality systen that also affect customer perception - including everything from the attitude of your technical support staff to the invoice your customers receive in the mail - quality does involve everything in your business.

What is a "Quality System"?

A quality system is a dynamic group of activities, people, information, and materials that converge to create a product. The system can exist in a loose format hardly recognizable as a system, or it can be very detailed and well defined. Regardless of the system's nature, the product's quality will be either good or bad.

Quality and Your Customers

Remember, the quality of your product or service always exists. And whether or not your company acknowledges this quality, have no doubt that your customers will. Your product or service already has a quality reputation - good or bad - that is determined by your customers' perceptions. You may beleive that your product quality is excellent, but what do your customers think? The answer to this question makes every difference when it comes to owning market share, becoming a world-class competitor, ensuring profitability, and ensuring customer satisfaction.
