Cutomer Satisfaction leads to Customer Loyalty.   The more satisfaction from the customer the more loyalty will come from his or her side.  It will also attract more customers,  because this customer will tell all his or her friends about the company's service.

When we meet the needs and expectations of the Client, it brings satisfaction. However in this manner, I call it a transactional relationship, the customer is with us as long as we continue to meet his needs and the day someone else can do it better or cost effectively the customer is gone.

When we meet and exceed the customer expectations consistently and repeatedly that brings in Delight and eventually loyalty. Competition will find it hard to take such customers away even if they were to offer product/service at a price less than ours.

I believe customer satisfaction is to be optimised. Because if the organisation is trying to "maximise" the satisfaction the company may have to go out of the way to do so and in the end lose out part of the profit. But if optimisation is done then there is a win win situation for both the organisation & the customers.

Customer Satisfaction is a measurement of customer attitudes regarding products, services, and brands. ... Customer Loyalty consists of loyalty behavior (also referred to as customer retention) which is the act of customers making repeat purchases of current brands, rather than choosing competitor brands.
