While customers are undoubtedly the most important asset of any business; the question remains if consumers are indeed always right. Coined by Harrod Gordon in 1909; ‘the customer is always right’ is an old and widely accepted adage in the world of business. However; as crucial as customer satisfaction is and as important as customers are to business success; there are times and situations where consumers are not always right. In fact; blindly following the assumption that consumers are always right can lead to adverse implications.
