Their attention was focused on the task at hand and there was no sight of anyone being unproductive. When we entered the restaurant, we were given a warm and friendly greeting by a hostess. The wait for a table on a Friday night was only about 20 minutes, and the electronic guest caller made the waiting experience hassle free. From the time we were sat, and throughout the entire dining experience, we never felt rushed and all of our requests were accommodated. We observed all staff conduct themselves in a professional manner. Training was evident in the manner we were spoken to, especially when the server suggested a number of items seamlessly. She displayed a great deal of product knowledge and was not too pushy when it came to…

The program specific learning opportunity that I attended was the CONHCP Health Care Professional Panel. Although it was advertised that athletic trainers, health care administration professionals, and nursing professionals would speak at the event, only nursing experts were present. If there were more healthcare professionals available, information relating to the medical field would be more variated.

A liaison spoke about the general academic pathway that a nursing student must take to eventually achieve the position of a nurse. In addition, two level 3 nursing students explained about the content of clinical courses in depth and their own experiences that they have gained throughout their years in the nursing program. The main objectives of this event were to provide valuable information about the nursing program and to enlighten pre-nursing…
With the proliferation and fragmentation of media, the marketing landscape has become much more complex. The good old days when marketers more or less had complete control over what consumers experienced via traditional offline and online push media and channels are long gone. That world has been replaced by one where these traditional channels now coexist with other, newer influences on the customer experience, some of which are outside the control and even the direct visibility of the marketer.…

• The first rule of service marketing, or selling the invisible is: The core of service marketing is the service itself. Before you write an ad, rent a mailing list, or fax a press release, first things first – fix the quality of your service. The best thing to do is assume your service is bad and you will be forced to improve it. Forget the excuses and remember McDonald’s. How can McDonald’s deliver spotless restrooms and world-class French fries in 50 seconds for just 79 cents? McDonald’s raised the standards for service excellence worldwide. If you think it can’t be done. Think of McDonald’s. In advertising, creative people win awards for clever copy and arresting visuals, but do these great ads really help grow the clients business? Who is setting your standards? Your ego, your industry, or your clients? Ignore your industry’s benchmarks, and copy Disney’s. Why emulate Disney? They show us how service is clean, friendly, and…
