The necessity of correct understanding of consumer behavior for realization of effective marketing activity at the tourist enterprise is proved. A comprehensive study of consumer needs and their consumer satisfaction with the quality of services is proposed. It will assess how marketing activities meet consumer needs and how a company assesses the importance of its work at each stage of the purchase decision. It has been proved that identifying the degree of consumer satisfaction with the company's services is the most important problem in the context of ensuring the competitiveness of the enterprise and the efficiency of its work in the market. A client-oriented model of marketing of a professional tourist service has been developed, which is based on the characteristics inherent in a professional tourist service. The model considers three types of marketing: traditional, internal and interactive marketing. The components of the model should be three controlled and interdependent links: "travel company – customers"; "travel company – staff"; "staff – customers ". It has been proved that the introduction of a customer-oriented model of marketing professional services and methods of personal sales will help improve the quality of services provided and increase the efficiency of the tourism enterprise as a whole.

The harmonization of tourism product’s prices and its quality is the main among them.

The article deals with problems concerning evaluating the quality of a tourist destination. A tourist destination is a conjunction of products, services, natural resources, culture resources, local people, artificially created attractions and information, due to which it is able to attract a number of visitors. The visitors’ satisfaction with a destination depends on the quality of their overall experience that is created on the basis of the cooperation of all actors in tourism in the given area – these are local inhabitants, service providers, public administration workers and destination management. The quality of services is a component of consumer satisfaction and so it is evaluated according to the level of a customer’s satisfaction. Sustainable development and the quality of natural environment are parts of the destination quality, too. When evaluating quality it is necessary to define a set of factors (variables) that can be quantified and then to determine the quality of a destination.The objective of the paper is to create a model for evaluating the quality of a destination on the basis of analysing the importance of individual factors (variables) concerning the quality of a destination. The importance of these factors was determined by relevant responders during a questionnaire survey. For reducing the original number of twenty dependant variables the multidimensional statistical method of analysing the principal components was used. On the basis of similarities in evaluation this method supported clusters of factors – relative dimensions of the quality of a destination. Subsequently a methodology was formulated to evaluate the quality of a destination according to four newly-defined dimensions of quality: Attractions, Services, Marketing management, Sustainability and cooperation.

The organization of health care is one of the most complex present day challenges. Like other countries that run socialized health care systems, Icelanders face the question of the role of private enterprise in health care. The objective of this study was two-fold: to compare the cost of 17 private and state-run health care centers in the metropolitan area, and to compare consumer satisfaction related to these. At the beginning of Icelandic settlement, there were statutory laws decreeing that community services should be provided for those in need. By the Health Care Act in 1973, the Icelandic health care system fell under the Nordic welfare society with equal access and a tight safety net. The results show that the private health care centers had a low cost per work unit, but not the lowest. Four to seven state run health care centers had less expenditure per patient than the private centers. The cost of each doctor’s position was highest in one of the private clinics. Patient satisfaction surveys showed that there is no difference in the quality of services between these two different operating modes. A conclusion can be drawn from this study that it is not clear whether private health care improves the use of public funds or increases the quality of services.
