  • Overview

    The Services sector is the dominant and growing sector of all western economies. Ireland is a service economy, with half of its GDP and 65% of its employment is attributable to services (www.eu2004.ie). This course outlines the unique features of services and examines how service marketing differs to product marketing. The role of the consumer in the service encounter is explored, and the elements of the
    marketing mix are examined from a services perspective.
