Acerca do valor (parte II)

Parte I.
.
Um texto com várias contribuições sobre o valor e como o descrever ou caracterizar:
"Value axioms
...

  • Value is a subjective assessment of the worth of some service taking into account all one gets and all one gives. Value is derived by the activities that comprise service.
  • Value results as an interaction of the firm and consumer and is derived by both the firm and the consumer 
  • ...
  • As a result of the above, value is not a zero-sum game. In other words, value can be obtained from all parties involved in a service exchange. The fact that a consumer receives high value is in no way an indication that the firm is receiving proportionately less value. 
  • Value occurs only after the purchase. The evaluation of worth can only occur after the fact. Research that operationalizes value in studying an impending purchase decision is more accurately focusing on value expectations or the anticipation of value. 
  • Value can be negative. When the service does not at least restore homeostasis, the value received can be negative. The “give” has exceeded the “get” components.
  • Utilitarian value and hedonic value are not mutually exclusive. These dimensions are not opposites, and while a firm can provide expertise in providing consumers with “get” components that lead to one or another, utilitarian value does not exclude hedonic value and vice versa. In fact, successful firms who build strong brand names often do so by providing relatively high amounts of utilitarian and hedonic value."
  • Value is not entirely distinct from one’s personal values. These personal values represent relatively desirable end states (terminal values) or ways to obtain the desirable end states (instrumental values). Thus, they illustrate the ends towardwhich service should be directed.Aconsumer’s ranking of the importance of these personal values is likely linked to the types of “get” components that are most sought after and the types of “give” components (resources) that he or she is most willing to let go.
