19.
Slide © 2010
by Lovelock & Wirtz Services Marketing 7/e Chapter 2 – Page 19 Moments of Truth “[W]e could say that the perceived quality is realized at the moment of truth, when the service provider and the service customer confront one another in the arena. At that moment they are very much on their own… It is the skill, the motivation, and the tools employed by the firm’s representative and the expectations and behavior of the client which together will create the service delivery process.” Richard Normann

Slide © 2010
by Lovelock & Wirtz Services Marketing 7/e Chapter 2 – Page 25 Theatrical Metaphor: an Integrative Perspective Good metaphor as service delivery is a series of events that customers experience as a performance Service facilities • Stage on which drama unfolds • This may change from one act to another Personnel • Front stage personnel are like members of a cast • Backstage personnel are support production team Roles • Like actors, employees have roles to play and behave in specific ways Scripts • Specifies the sequences of behavior for customers and employees
