A comprehensive set of results have emerged from data analysis. Customer experience is positively and significantly influenced by dialogue initiating (DI), dialogue building (DB), dialogue sharing (DS) and dialogue critiquing (DC). Though all four types of dialogue significantly affect customer experience in value co-creation but it is measured that customer is more persuaded toward dialogue initiating and dialogue sharing than that of dialogue building and dialogue critiquing to evaluate customer experience. However, dialogue initiating and dialogue sharing have almost equal contribution in the development of customer experience.
