Communicating a Service Offering in Cairns
Because services are not touchable, marketing communications for services achieve more than promote services. Communications render services more tangible, and present prospects something firm to evaluate.
As a result, marketing communications for most services drag around a heavier burden than communications for products. A bright red Porsche 911 convertible, for example, yells loudly and beautifully for itself. Very few services shout for themselves at all.
We implicitly trust most products. We trust that our new tyres won’t blow out, our white sugar will taste sweet, and our aspirin will relieve our headaches without bad side effects. But we are far less trusting and certain about most services.
We worry that our solicitors and auto mechanics will toil on our behalf more than necessary, and bill more than necessary. We worry that the latest weight loss service will fail, just like the two we have tried before. We worry that our remodelers will pad their budget and complete the job weeks after they promised. We worry that the collection agency we engage for our service will harass our clients worth keeping and collect only a small part of our outstanding receivables.
So unlike communicating about products, communicating about services must make the service more tangible and real, and must soothe the worried prospect. It’s not like selling Porsche automobiles.
