Service Perspectives:
Not a “Product”
No Difference-
Intangible human
act- that is
produced at the
time of
consumption &
can’t be
standardized or
inventoried…
Products are just
appliances that
provide servicesShift perspective
from Mfgr to
consumer… and
focus on benefits
No OneAutomation,
Virtualization
&
Outsourcing
Defining -a Service
• An act or performance offered by one
party for another
• An economic activity that does not
result in ownership
• A process that creates benefits by
facilitating a desired change in:
– customers themselves –get a haircut
– physical possessions- get a wig
– intangible assets- get therapy
Service as process….

The Four Service Marketing Myths:
Remnants of a Goods-Based,
Manufacturing Model
The 4 characteristics:
1.
2.
Do not distinguish services from goods
Only have meaning from a
manufacturing perspective, and
3. Suggest inappropriate marketing
strategies
Key Point- Product-service differentiation
is result of industrial age-2nd wave
thinking

Re- Variabilty:
Customizaton not standardization is the goal
Re-Inseparability:
“Customer-ization” not isolation = goal
Re-Perishability:
Services can be/are inventoried (ie-knowledge in databases &
experts head) AND Inventory management not maximization is
the objective; Everything is perishable—if not in substance
certainly in style…
Re: Intangibility:
its not the product that people are buying. It’s the
functions served & benefits rendered- as it is w/ services
A shift in perspective
Instead of focusing on
product – service
differences
…Focus on consumer
commonalities
…in “consuming &
evaluating” that which
is purchased

People are your Product
 In
many instancespeople performing the
service are the product
 They are the service
and/or organization in
customer’s eyes.
 They are the brand.

Monitor, Motivate, Reward

Standardization & Personalization
Same as w/ Products
Limiting the variability in your
service by standardizing the process
of delivery & level of consumer
involvement will lower expenses but
comes w/ a cost:
“Although standardization may
provide for manufacturing
efficiency, this efficiency
comes at expense of marketing
effectiveness. ..
the consumer orientation
screams heterogeneity”
Vargo & Lusch: The Four Service Marketing Myths
The importance of Physical
Evidence in the “Service Encounter”

At Moment of Truth when service delivered &
evaluated by consumer– everything in evidence
contributes to the consumer's evaluation of the
service…

Be it a website, restaurant, office, hotel room or theme
park…it needs to be designed & packaged as well as any
product

What the customer sees -- hears, smells,
feels-is what s/he’ll believes they will get…

Colors, textures, sounds, smells, décor, dress,
demeanor…everything in evidence needs attention and
management…
It’s the little things that count
How you design your service encounter is
critical in a highly competitive market
where consumers hard pressed to discern
a significant difference in service
performance …
Herein the design of your service
encounter will prove the most critical
variable in your marketing mix
Again – a lesson proven equally valid for
products---

A good uniform
makes all the

Identifiable apparel:
An image-making marketing tool
1. Improves your image: Customers
equate a professional-looking
worker w/ a well-run company
2. Increases employee
commitment: Adding employee's
name can boost morale & loyalty
3. Provides a popular employment
"perk":.
4. Shows off your firm's
experience and expertise:
"certification" -job titles, slogans &
performance emblems on shirts/
sleeves…

courtesy,

friendliness are
most important
components of
customer service.
The Multiplier Effect
When a customer has a minor service problem:
•In transactions >$100 - s/he will tell 9 to 10 people.
•In transactions over $100, s/he will tell 16 people.

Where and Who Complains

Most complaints made to service provider
(employee) at time & place of service

Less than 5% of complaints about
services ever reach corporate
headquarters.

High-income households, younger people,
and service-knowledgeable customers are
more likely to complain.
Actively Encourage
Complaints

Average company does not hear
from 95% of its unhappy customers.

Many complaints go unregistered
because customers do not think
it will help and/or do not know
best way to register complaint

Encouraging complaints is a good
way to “break the silence.”
Attitude is Crucial
 Customers
value
acknowledged w/ every
transaction…
 Customers lose
confidence when:
– Complaints not readily
or personally addressed
E-pologies?
Email response
should include
options/names &
telephone
numbers for
further
assistance..
