Discussion questions
23
Products and Services
Product:
• Anything that can be offered to a market to satisfy a
need or want.
• The concept of product is not limited to physical
objects – anything capable of satisfying a need can
be called a product.
Services:
• Any activity or benefit that one party can offer
to another which is essentially intangible. 24
Values, Satisfaction, and Quality
Values:
Customer value = perceived benefits – perceived sacrifice
• Customer value is the difference between the values the
customer gains from owning and using a product and the costs
of obtaining the products.
• Customers often do not judge product value and costs accurately
or objectively. They act on perceived value.
Customers look for value
• Value = Benefit – cost
• Benefit = Functional benefit + Emotional benefit
• Cost = Monetary cost + Time cost + Energy cost + psychic cost
25
Satisfaction:
• Customer satisfaction depends on a product’s perceived
performance in delivering value relative to a buyer’s expectation.
• If performance is lower than expectations, satisfaction is low.
26
Quality
• Customer satisfaction is closely linked to quality.
