technologically advanced society, the force of negative e-WOM due to poor support services cannot be
undermined. To avoid damaging brand reputations, the company should analyze its support operations
and utilize them as a vehicle to promote a favorable word in its mouth because of fast, prompt, and
effective services of support.
