2. Definej thej servicej packagej ofj yourj collegej orj university.j Whatj isj itsj strongestj element?j
Whatj isjitsj weakestj one?

Thej categoriesj withj examplesj are:
Supportingj facilityj -j location,j buildings,j labs,j parkingj
Facilitatingj goodsj –j classj schedules,j computers,j books,j chalk
Explicitj servicesj –j classesj withj qualifiedj instructors,j placementj
officesjImplicitj servicesj –j statusj andj reputationj (e.g.,j Ivyj Leaguej
schools)

Atj Indianaj Universityj andj thej Universityj ofj Southernj California,j amongj theirj strongestj
elementsj arej theirj businessj schoolsj andj theirj Operationsj Managementj programsj (ofj
course).jBothj alsoj havej veryj dedicatedj alumnij networks.j Aj weakj elementj ofj Indianaj
Universityj isj itsj weakj footballj program;j forj USC,j weakj elementsj arej on-campusj parkingj
andj housing.

3. Whatj servicej industryj hasj impressedj youj thej mostj withj itsj innovativeness?

Ourj votej goesj toj cruisej linesj whichj havej introducedj suchj onboardj innovationsj asj wavej
machinesj forj bellyj boardingj andj rockj climbingj walls,j asj wellj asj allj sortsj ofj otherj
amenitiesj tojkeepj cruisersj involved.j Thej industryj isj doingj recordj businessj asj well.

Somej ofj thej standoutj companiesj inj lessj innovativej industriesj arej Bankj ofj Americaj (hasj aj
formalizedj researchj programj toj tryj outj newj customerj services/amenitiesj suchj asj videoj
screensjinj nextj toj tellerj lines),j Intuitj (e.g.,j puttingj Quickenj moneyj managementj softwarej
online),j Ikea,jJetBluej Airlines,j andj Progressivej Insurancej (discussedj laterj inj thej book).

4. Whatj isj product-servicej bundlingj andj whatj arej thej benefitsj toj customers?

Product-servicej bundlingj isj addingj Value-addedj servicesj toj aj firm’sj productj offeringsj toj
createjmorej valuej forj thej customer.j Thisj providesj benefitsj inj twoj areas.j First,j thisj
differentiatesj thejorganizationj fromj thej competition.j Secondly,j thesej servicesj tiej customersj
toj thej organizationjinj aj positivej way.j Alternatively,j bundlingj canj alsoj involvej addingj
productsj toj aj service,j forj example,j addingj thej salej ofj conveniencej itemsj andj snacksj atj aj
hotel.

5. Whatj isj thej differencej betweenj aj servicej andj aj good?

Aj servicej isj anj intangiblej processj (youj can’tj holdj itj inj yourj hands),j whilej aj goodj isj thej
physicaljoutputj ofj aj process.

6. Lookj atj thej jobj postingsj atj http://www.indeed.comj andj evaluatej thej opportunitiesj
