The single server queueing model of finite size with repeated vacations and promoted customers arrival is examined in this work. By employing the recursive approach, the steady-state solution is achieved. When the server is idle, or the system is empty, the server takes a vacation. He will resume regular work once his vacation is over if he discovers any customers waiting for service; if not, he will take another vacation and so on. By using a recursive method, some of the system's operational characteristics, such as the predicted queue length, sojourn time, and probability of various server statuses, are determined. When businesses provide attractive off-season sales or holiday season discounts, the number of consumers suddenly jumps, giving birth to the term encouraged customers.
