Sample text
Contrary to what happens in a factory, once a service has been delivered it is difficult to improve or correct it. The performance cannot be measured, controlled or corrected during the delivery without the customer’s being aware of it. It is also much more difficult to find out how the customer perceives the experience during the interaction; the perception is immediate, subjective and qualitative. ” So whereas in the back stage the objective is zero defects, in the front stage it is zero defections.
In conclusion, the dotted line separating the service sector from the industrial sector is less significant than the solid line dividing backstage and front-stage activities, products and services. We are all in services now, more or less. This is in line with Baumol’s service categories:2 ■ ■ ■ Stagnant services (health, education, personal services), in which productivity gains are difficult to achieve because quality is highly correlated with time spent in contact with the customer.

The service mix One of the aims of marketing is to make consumers aware of the existence of a product, and another is to convince them to buy it. However, the traditional marketing mix used to promote tangible goods (the four P’s) is clearly inadequate for services. First, the promotion of tangible goods through the usual media is less effective for pure services than word of mouth based on customers’ experience. Second, the place of delivery is also the production site. Price sensitivity is also quite different: as a rule, a buyer will more readily accept the price quoted for a physical product than for an intangible service.
