After the Industrial Revolution, the growth of mass production allowed the export of products. From this context, it is crucial to mention the evolution of the concept of quality and the efforts made to understand and apply this parameter. So, this paper aims to rescue the history of quality management, by historical contexts and the main theorists of quality. Bibliographic research was conducted and compiled the various branches and theories of quality, as well as its path over the decades until the present moment. As a result, it is important to highlight the contribution of quality gurus and essential elements, like total quality control, quality management system and good manufacturing practice. The search for quality by companies can be summarised into one reason: its clients. Therefore, customers are a fundamental part of this history and that quality is a continuous process of constant improvement and adaptation to current needs.

This study analyses the impact of customer segmentation, customer acquisition and retention, and customer behaviour on the organisational growth and performance of the start-up enterprises (SUEs) in Mexico. SUEs tend to gain more market share by implementing customer-centric approach through various cognitive variables. These variables include customer acquisition, brand promotion, referrals, brand loyalty, purchase intention, self-perception (me-too-feeling), product referrals, and repeat buying behaviour. Information gathered from 308 respondents was admitted to the data analysis process. In all, information from 88% of respondents was considered for data analysis. This study reveals that most SUEs focus on customer-centric market segments within niche (minimum viable segments) to increase marketing efficiency by generating pre-emptive consumer behaviour. The performance of an SUE is determined by customer acquisition approaches, target segmentation, consumer confidence, product referrals, and purchase intentions towards innovative products.
