expectations and budget of the target market

Place
Not only the location of the tourist attraction or
facility but the location of points of sale that
provide customers with access to tourist products
eg. I-site, accommodation, cafe
![Page 7: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Price
• Used to achieve predetermined sales volume and
revenue objectives
• Price gives a product or service a perceived value
in the eyes of the consumer
– How would you use price to counteract demand
exceeding supply?

Marketing Services
• Tourism is a service.
• Services differ from physical products,
– This needs to be taken into account when marketing them
![Page 10: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Characteristics of Services
• Intangibility
• Heterogeneity
• Temporary ownership
• Perishability
• Inseparability
![Page 11: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Intangibility
• Not the physical portion (tangible) of the product
– Performance or experience rendered by the
service provider to the service consumer
• Most tourism products are a mixture of tangible
and intangible
![Page 12: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Inseparability
• Services are usually produced and consumed at
the same time
– Think of a restaurant meal
• This can make it difficult to separate the provider of
the service from the service itself.
![Page 13: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Perishability
• Services cannot be saved or stored as they expire
during the simultaneous production and
consumption process
– Aircraft seat
– Restaurant meal
– Amusement park ride
![Page 14: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Heterogeneity
• Standardisation
– Difficult to achieve in a people based service industry
• Quality control plays an important part
– What forms of standardization can you think of?
![Page 15: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Ownership
• Service customers usually only have access to or
use a facility where a service is performed
– Use of a hotel room for a holiday – you occupy
the space only and have temporary use of the
facilities
![Page 16: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
How Tourism Differs
• Tourism is more supply-led than other services
All ready have the product then research which market might be interested in purchasing it.
– Dunedin the destination is already here who wants to visit.
• Tourism product might involve the co-operation of several suppliers.
e.g. Package holiday
![Page 17: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
How Tourism Differs
• Tourism is a complex, extended product experience with no predictable critical evaluation point.
Pre trip anticipation and post trip reflection
While trips to the same destination may be the same different variables can make the trip different – and hard to evaluate against
![Page 18: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
How Tourism Differs
• Tourism is a high-involvement, high-risk product to its consumers
– Involves committing large sums of money to something reasonably unknown
• Tourism is a product partly constituted by the dreams and fantasies of its customers.
– Unlike banking and car repair, tourism is not consumed for rational, functional purposes.
![Page 19: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
How Tourism Differs
• Tourism is a fragile industry susceptible to
external forces beyond the control of its
suppliers
– Tourism organisations sometimes have to make
rapid responses to crises in the form of product
redesign, price reductions or promotional
damage limitation.

People - Employees
• A tourism organisations most valuable resource
– Physical appearance, behaviour, knowledge and
attitude has a powerful impact on customers
perception of the tourism product
– Ensure uniform, grooming etc. conform to
branding and target market
![Page 23: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
People - Employees
• Ensure staff are trained to ensure the product is
delivered in accordance with the marketing
strategic plan.
• Employees physically embody the product and
are walking billboards from a promotional point
of view – Zeithaml & Bitner (1996)
![Page 24: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Process
• Process is inseparable product
– If any part of the process is found to be
unsuitable by the consumer, it could result in a
negative evaluation of the whole product.
![Page 25: Marketing Tourism Hillary Jenkins, Otago Polytechnic](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051416/56649f285503460f94c4177c/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Physical Evidence
• Defined as the built environment owned and controlled by
a tourism organisation
• The tangible aspect of the tourism product
• May be used to facilitate the service delivery process e.g.
layout and signage
• Communicates messages about quality, positioning and
differentiation

Think about the layout, colours , furnishings, sound systems at an airport
