Service Product consists of Flower of Service and its functions. Here, I have taken example of Banking Sector, to understand well about how banking sector is related with the Flower of Service. I have explained Delivery Process, Core & Supplementary Service as in Service Marketing.
2. SERVICE PRODUCT
• A service product consists of two components, the CORE
product and SUPPLEMENTARY services.
• The CORE product is based on the core set of benefits and
solutions delivered to customers.
• The CORE product refer to the use, benefit or problem-
solving service that the consumer is buying.
3. • The SUPPLEMENTARY services often play an important role
in differentiating and positioning the core product against
competing services.
• The SUPPLEMENTARY services augment the core product by
facilitating its use and enhancing its value and appeal.
4. DELIVERY PROCESSES
• In order to cater the entire service performance in a holistic
manner, the firm needs to determine specific aspects that it
plans to compete on.
• The DELIVERY PROCESSES are those that are used to deliver
both the core product and supplementary services.
8. • There are two kinds of SUPPLEMENTARY services.
1. FACILITATING SERVICES
These services are either needed for service delivery, or
help in the use of the core product.
2. ENHANCING SERVICES
These services add extra value for the customer.
