“Customer”. Customers are the sole source of revenue and
their needs dictate features of products and services. A happy
and satisfied customer can increase in company’s customer

• Regulations from the local government body primarily act as a
2nd biggest powerful driving force for telecom industry. For
example during eid days Government used to suspend the
cellular services on account of security concerns without
considering the impact of its action on the telecom industry
because these are highest revenue generating days and to solve
this issue all companies should unite and have dialogue with
government.
