The Gaps Model of Service Quality was originally developed for application in the financial service sector. The model was designed to measure components of customer satisfaction by using five dimensions of real or potential gaps in service quality of a hotel (Saleh & Ryan, 1991). The model has been applied to hotels, as well as a number of service agencies, including banking, hotels, restaurants, and healthcare. Even though the services differ greatly, the model is easily adapted to any service industry (Parasuraman, Zeithaml, & Berry, 1985).
Many companies have benefited from improvements of quality and service both internal and external aspect in global market which performance in company revenues increasing, higher margins, cost reduction, reputation of the company enhancement and some other positive effects on social or public perception. However, quality is an item that has visible and invisible inherent characteristics which can satisfy customers’ requirements (Dale, 2003). Therefore, quality of product is fundamental to firms, customer satisfaction will affect the profit of companies directly and quality improvement strategy is an effective approach to get financial return. In addition, as another form of definition of quality to exist, service for customers also an important reason for firms’ financial benefits.

When an experience “fosters a sense of social connection…makes a memorable story…for years to come…links to your sense of who you are or want to be…[and] provides a unique opportunity, eluding easy comparison,” (Dunn and Norton, 2013, p. 20), it creates a memory that is cherished far more than a material good. The generation of a lasting impression offers a happiness that increases with time. Businesses, such as restaurants and tourism industries, apply this concept by advertising the experience their company delivers. For example, a restaurant must create a market to entice people into choosing it over all the other existing food options while for tourism to have success, it must market a once in a lifetime opportunity to give value to experience. People are more willing to forgo the cheap alternative as long as they find that the value, both monetary and happiness, overshadows the increased expense.

The article discusses the five key approaches of destinations, which I relate back to the types of tourism development discussed in chapter four of our textbook. There are three types of tourism development and they include tourist enclaves, resorts, and tourism zones (Williams, Stephen, and Alan Lew, pg. 87-88). The topic of this article and these types of tourism development relate to each other because these forms of tourism development are “destinations” in themselves. For example, one of the forms of tourism development is a resort. The textbook defines a resort as “a specific property that offers a combination of accommodations and leisure and recreation services, and a destination that collectively offers these” (Williams, Stephen, and Alan Lew, pg. 87-88). I relate this definition back to the first key approach discussed in the article, which is explaining how the basic needs of a destination are having a destination, transportation, and activities within the destination ((Howie, F. (2003). Managing the tourist destination. London: Cengage Learning EMEA)” (Jovicic, Dobrica Z). This is the first step in making a certain place a destinations that tourists will want to

For example, a hotel will want to give a relaxing and fun atmosphere for the customers and inspires those same feelings in the consumer. Because the hospitality industry is mostly made up of tourism and other experiential services, a consistent brand identity is also very important. Marketers want to ensure that brand recognition exists so that customers will repeat to use their services. Repeat customers can create a greater revenue, which mean marketing strategy is necessary to consider about maintaining the relationships with the old customers while seeking out new customers as well (Hussung, 2016). Therefore, with the special characteristics of tourism products, the role of marketing in tourism industry compared with other industries is more important and implementation of marketing tools for a country is considerable. To illustrate, marketing can offer some information about the specific place to encourage the tourists to visit their destination (Laimer & Juergen, 2009).

Tourism industries know how to act as a revenue originator and as a catalyst for development in a region. In order for the tourism prospective of a region to be harnessed there is need for a security environment that is stable, complemented by helpful administrative machinery.
