Purpose – The author aims to examine how customer voice contributes to service provider relationships as a relationship driver by assessing its linkages to distinct relationship outcomes. Design/methodology/approach – Structural equation modeling is used to test the study's hypotheses with US customer survey data from two independent samples: a luxury specialty retailer ( n =2,586) and a casual dining restaurant ( n =634). Both participating service firms use loyalty programs whose members are included in this study. Findings – Customer voice is shown to positively and directly relate to customers' willingness to increase the volume and share of their purchases, impart positive word of mouth, and participate in a variety of marketing research initiatives. Research limitations/implications – The multi‐contextually supported results are based on distinct customer groups with varying ties to the service provider. Practical implications – As service providers are able to favorably influence customer voice, they also stand to improve their marketing performance. Originality/value – This study provides a theoretically richer and broader view of customer voice as a driver of strengthened service provider relationships. The findings demonstrate how customer voice does more than protect against customer defection by also contributing to customer relationship building.
