People

The nature of most services requires direct interaction between the customer/consumer and personnel representing the service provider’s organisation.” Source: Dibb.S, Simkin.L, Pride.W.M. & Ferrell.O.C. (2001) Marketing – Concepts & Strategies US:Houghton Mifflin
39
Service Organisations “In many services, customers interact with one another, and the organisation’s staff also interact with one another…Employee selection, training and motivation are central considerations.” Source: Dibb.S, Simkin.L, Pride.W.M. & Ferrell.O.C. (2001) Marketing – Concepts & Strategies US:Houghton Mifflin

(2001) Marketing – Concepts & Strategies US:Houghton Mifflin
