Marketing
Marketing is a continuous, sequential process through
which management plans, researches, implements,
controls, and evaluates activities designed to satisfy the
customers’ needs and wants, and meet the
organization’s objectives.
(Freeman & Glazer, n.d.)
Services Marketing
Morrison (2010) indicates, services marketing “is
a concept based on a recognition of the uniqueness of
all services; it is a branch of marketing that specifically
applies to the service industries”(p. 767).

Services Marketing
Four key differences between goods and services. Services
are:
1. Intangible
2. Heterogeneous
3. Inseparable (simultaneously produced and consumed)
4. Perishable
(Regan; Rathmell; Shostack; Zeithaml et al. in Wolak, Kalafatis, &
Harris, 1998)
Services Marketing
PRICE Concept:
P: plan (where are we now?)
R: research (where would we like to be?)
I: implement (how do we get there?)
C: control (how do we make sure we get there?)
E: evaluate (how do we know if we got there?)
(Morrison, 2010)
