1. Nature of service and service consumption
The aim is to explore the distinctive features of services such as heterogeneity, intangibility, inseparability and perishability. Recognition of these special characteristics will provide insights for enlightened and innovative management. One reason for the poor quality of service levels across different service industries is that managers often tend to solve service marketing problems with tools and techniques that are essentially meant for tangible products.
2. Marketing mix for services
Marketing mix is the set of important internal elements that make up an organisation’s marketing programme in national and international context. The aim is to explain traditional marketing mix comprising of product, price, place and promotion as applied to service organizations. Furthermore, discuss the extended marketing mix which incorporates traditional marketing mix as well as three more 3 Ps namely people, process and physical evidence.
3. Consumer behaviour and customer interface management
The aim of this topic is to describe how consumers think about services and how they perceive service providers. The core concepts are loyalty, attitude, perception, motivation, lifestyle, personality, usage, promotional responses and benefit perception. Purchase decision will be deconstructed on attitudinal and also unanticipated situational factors level to understand consumer behaviour.
4. Quality management in service
The service quality of a firm is tested at each service encounter. Service quality is the delivery of excellent or superior service relative to customer expectations. It is essential that quality is measured from the customer’s perspective, not from what managers within a company think their customers’ views are. The SERVQUAL model is introduced which uses analysis of 5 gaps in service offering. Market-creating innovation strategies for services are discussed as well.

New service design process is presented consisting of: idea generation, idea screening, concept development, concept testing, business analysis, development, testing and finally commercialization. There are also few critical issues in developing new service: branding, patent, warranty, after-sale service.
