Goods dominant logic:value is created at the moment of
exchange, after that, the Customer is on his own

value exchange: when money and ownership or
rights change hands
The new dominant logic:
Service Logic
is not about selling services

Service Logic: value co-creation happens AFTER value exchange

Value for customers means that, after they have been assisted by a self-
service or full-service process, they are – or feel – better off than before

Whether a Customer is – or feels – better off is determined by the Customer

Value is co-created when customer desired outcomes are met
in other words: when the Customer’s job is done to his satisfaction

Fact: most Customers can use some help in creating value

If value for the Customer is dominantly created after value exchange, i.e. IN USE, both scope and content of marketing strategies should shift from dominantly focused on creating momentum for value exchange to a continuum of interactions in networks of relationships aimed to support customers’ value creation
The “new” goal for marketing is to support (and improve) customers’
value creation “in use”

Value “in use” is determined by Customer outcomes of experiences
during the lifetime of consumption of products & services

Touch-points and interactions (in networks) of relationships are the
building blocks of personalized experiences in a socially networked
eco-system

5 Questions for today’s marketers

1. Do you understand how and to what extent your customers are meeting their desired outcomes when using
(experiencing) your product or services (over its lifetime)?

2. What interactions with your product, services, partners,
employees, touch-points, their networks and relationships influence and shape customers’ experiences in
use?

3. What opportunities do you see to engage in the customer’s value-
creation process?

4. What opportunities do you see to pro-actively help the customer meet their desired outcomes through (new
ways of) interacting (in & via networks) and building relationships?

5. Who do you need to collaborate with to purposefully design & execute experiences over a lifetime of use to
exploit these opportunities?

How does “Social” tie into all this?

A social crm strategy is about understanding who the customer is through listening to, engaging with and collaboration between customers, employees and partners. It is aimed at developing innovations, interactions in networks of relationships and communities that support customers in doing the jobs they need to do. The means are a personalized design of the service experience that empowers customers, employees and partners to influence how well they can meet their desired outcomes

Implications for Marketing

Marketing’s 1st job is to understand customers’ value creation process (=
jobs & desired outcomes) and where in the process Customers fail to meet
their desired outcomes.

outcomes and behavior

Marketing’s 4th job is to design experiences that stimulate company’s engagement through interactions in
networks of relationships
Marketing’s 5th job is to engage employees and partners in supporting
Customers in their process of value creation
Marketing’s 6th job is to extract actionable insights from 360-degree feedback to foster innovations and to turn them into value propositions that
attract new Customers

Marketing’s 7th job is to redesign metrics to capture the network value
for the firm and to ensure there is high correlation between these metrics an

What about Marketing Laws?
The P’s remain valid, but less dominant. Focus is no longer
dominantly on product and value chain towards value exchange.

Segmentation based on demo/sociographics come 2nd, after
segmentation based on Customer jobs & (desired) outcomes.
