Marketing of Services Notes

Kotler and bloom – (1984) Defined services as:

“any activity on benefit that one party can offer to another that is essentially intangible and does not result in the ownership of anything”

Marketing can be split into two major areas i.e. marketing of services and marketing of goods. Therefore marketing of services is a subdivision of marketing.

Service Marketing basically refers to marketing of business to consumer [B2C] and business to business [B2B] services like telecommunications services, financial services, health care services, hospitality services,  travel services,  professional services etc.

From a consumers point of view marketing of services can be defined as activities offered to an individual for sale that provide valuable benefits or satisfaction, activities which he cannot perform himself or chooses not to.

  2. I really appreciate the type of notes you are publishing, it’s not accessible why? Am from south Sudan in Africa where getting such kind of text books like project management notes, Human Resource notes and marketing notes is a big issue. We are in war zone where there is no accessibility of University notes. So am asking your kindness to send the above mentioned notes to my email.
