Questionnaire reliability is tested through Cronbach Alpha Formula. Data are analyzed through descriptive statistics including frequency, percentage, mean and standard deviation. Quantitative data analysis is conducted through difference testing by using T-test, F-test, and relationship testing by using Chi-Square with a statis-tical significance level of 0.05. Data are processed through statistical programming. The results of this study indicate high placement of the importance of marketing communication tools affecting service decision making.
