About Services Marketing

GoConqr Original

What the page covers

The resources follow a typical services marketing textbook, chapter by chapter. The Services Marketing chapter 4 quiz asks about surrounding a core product with supplementary services, and the augmented product. The Chapter 5 quiz looks at arm's length transactions and protecting intellectual property. Chapter 6 questions turn to cost management and pricing. Chapter 8 covers the roles of marketing communication, including location-based text adverts. Chapter 14 deals with complaints and monitoring service quality.

Where to start

Begin with the basics. The mind maps THE NATURE, DEFINITION & TYPES OF SERVICES and Understanding services marketing set out what makes a service different from a product. The 4 Characteristics of Services flashcards then help the ideas stick. If you meet service-dominant logic, the SDL critique mind map is a useful companion.

Using quizzes and maps together

  1. Read a mind map for the chapter, such as Chapter 7: Relationship Marketing, which moves from strangers to acquaintances, friends and partners.
  2. Take the matching quiz without notes.
  3. Note the questions you missed and go back to the branch of the map that covers them.
  4. Repeat with flashcards, such as Service Failure & Recovery.

For people and delivery, the Chapter 6: Leveraging the people factor map covers boundary spanners and frontstage employees. The Starbucks Service Blueprint flowchart shows a service process laid out step by step.

Where it sits

This unit belongs to the Marketing Contexts and Society strand of Marketing, advertising and sales. It looks at marketing in a service setting, so it pairs well with wider marketing study.

Next step

Pick one chapter, take its quiz, and then build your own maps or flashcards around the gaps you find.

Frequently asked questions

Which quiz should I try first?

Start with the Services Marketing chapter 4 quiz if you want a core idea early on: it asks about augmented products and supplementary services. For a broader check, the quiz covering chapters 5 to 8 mixes queues, pricing and communications questions in one go.

What do the mind maps cover?

They cover the nature and types of services, relationship marketing, the people factor, integrated communications, service positioning and design, and service quality, including the gaps model. There are also maps on service environments, customer experience online and marketing services for non-profit organisations.

Are the resources free to use?

Yes. Every resource on this page is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.

Who is this page for?

It mainly suits university students working through a services marketing course, using quizzes to test chapters and maps or flashcards to revise. Teachers can also pick out ready-made material to share with a class or use as a starting point.

Who made these resources?

They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. Over 140 contributors have added quizzes, maps, flashcards and notes, so the wording and chapter numbering vary. Check a resource against your own course reading list before relying on it.

Is there anything on service failure?

Yes. The Service Failure and Service Failure & Recovery flashcard decks look at what happens when a service goes wrong. The Chapter 14 quiz also asks why dissatisfied customers should be encouraged to complain, which fits well alongside them.
