Starbucks is a total sensory experience. It tastes good, smells good, looks good

By admin

Starbucks is a total sensory experience. It tastes good, smells good, looks good, has relaxing music, comfortable seating, wireless technology, is everywhere and for many is their “third place” to hang out (besides home and work or school). On a 5-point scale, Starbucks probably rates as a 4-4-5-2 based on the S-Q-I-P model, with atmospherics their big value adder and price as their weakest link. Given this value proposition evaluation, opportunities for improvement may be to do a better job promoting its frequent customer program called Starbucks Rewards or a Starbucks for bucks’
promotion ($2 double espresso shots, $3 cappuccinos).
