- The customer’s experience can be mapped through a service sequence. This is an abstract map showing how the perceived quality of service can be affected by the different acts. The customer may have had some great service (service encounter 4) but the final four service encounters will have left the impression of poor service.
- There are a number of things that can affect the quality of the service.
- If something can affect the quality of the service, then the service provider becomes responsible for managing it. Service providers are therefore responsible for managing the customer as well as managing other customers.
- Example of Managing CustomersMenus limit customers to a certain selection of options at a restaurant.Role lanes ensures that customers go the right way.Clear instructions and signposts at airports direct customers to the right place.
- Example of Managing Other CustomersWe make them wait away from the service area.We limit which customers we allow in to be served.

- Sales/Marketing may make the promises and the Delivery will keep the promise
- Sales/Marketing may make the promises and the Delivery will keep the promise
- Marketing and Sales make promises to customers.Marketing/Sales also need to ensure that the Delivery arm is enabled to keep those promises.Delivery need to understand what promises have been made and deliver on these to keep the promises.
