Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

C is the answer.    The service provided at Toy Corner exceeds customer expectations.

Explanation:

When a store offers a broad assortment of goods tailored for different age groups, it will really attract more patronage.

But, when it ensures the home-delivery of goods that are not available at its store to customers who have placed orders, then it can be said to be exceeding the expectations of its customers.

This is moreso, when such home-delivered goods are sold to customers at discounted prices.  This shows that the store not only cares for its customers, it surely does not want the customers to leave its store to buy goods from others.  This ensures customer loyalty and continued patronage.

The approach is very competitive and customer-friendly.
