Service scape
Servicescape helps in creating a corporate identity (i.e. positioning and differentiation).
It’s a part of service experience: customers frequently use the service environment as an important quality proxy.
Its a part of value proposition: physical surroundings help to shape appropriate feeling and reactions in customers and employees.
Servicescape facilitates the service encounters by reducing service failures and supporting a fast & smooth service delivery process.
