Abstract
Abstract Researchers and marketers have spent considerable effort to understand product newness, particularly really-new and incrementally new products, however, the same cannot be said about service newness. To date, there is no study that only focuses on how consumers perceive service newness. This research aims not only to fill this academic vacuum, but also to help the practitioner in framing messages that they send to potential consumers when a new service is being introduced. Furthermore, this study contributes to the services marketing literature by examining how new services in a variety of different industries are perceived by consumers.

期刊介绍:
Services Marketing Quarterly is directed at academicians and practitioners who are involved in the development and application of services marketing concepts to the wide spectrum of industries that constitute the service sector of economies. The journal presents both theoretical and empirical articles including experimental and pilot studies addressing various issues faced by service marketers to enhance the development of the marketing literature in the application of marketing concepts to services. Areas of emphasis include: Service characteristics changes. Servicescape impacts. Service delivery impacts. Services impact on organizational image. Digital service environments and impacts. Evolution of services over time and by industry. Contributions are encouraged which include analysis of existing practice, methods and programs; application of new ideas and methods; and research on various aspects of services marketing. Each manuscript should include the marketing implications of the impact of the findings on services marketing theory and/or practice. Services Marketing Quarterly also welcome proposals for special issues.
