This is measured using Cochran's sampling method and a sample group of 60 gym owners (from a total of 150 gyms) and 473 costumers. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient rate of all questionnaires were bigger than 0.7 (0.824 for business intelligence questionnaire, 0.853 for customer satisfaction questionnaire and 0.325 for customer loyalty questionnaire) and this confirmed the consistency of questionnaires. Considering the distance of the studied variables, the Kolmogorov–Smirnov test was used to analyze the relation between business intelligence with customer loyalty and customer satisfaction.

Also, the analysis of the co-efficient rates indicated a meaningful relation between strategic perspective, common fate, desire to change and performance pressure with customer satisfaction(P?0.005), but no meaningful relation was found between spirit, teamwork and co-operation and use of knowledge with customer loyalty and customer satisfaction(P?0.005).
